Enjoyed walking around these neighborhoods, which we would not have done in such detail otherwise. The guide was personable and knew a lot. However, we specifically booked an English language trip. The majority of the people were English speaking and yet the guide spoke in Spanish more than half the time to the four people who were Spanish speaking and somehow included on our tour. Also, she ended 15 minutes early at a scenic viewpoint, which was quite a ways from the starting point, leaving us to find our own way back. I had assumed that we would be brought back to the starting point.
If you are in Granada you must see this part of the city. The tour was great overall - there was some confusion when we arrived as our names weren't on the list, but the company quickly rectified the situation and got us rescheduled.
Got a private tour since I was the only English speaker
