Definitely worth the trip - The tour was entertaining, plenty of detailed explanations about the history of Granada without being too dry. She was professional and spoke good English.

Put this one on your itinerary! - This is a great experience. We two had a private tour with a guide who spoke good English and appreciated so much history and architecture details. It was awesome. If you can, do this. It's very worthwhile.

Excellent guide: Marta - I had the same guide (Marta) that I had in the Alhambra guided tour. Marta is excellent, she knows a lot about Spanish history, besides being nice and very professional.

Loved learning the history of Granada and how it was shaped - We are staying here in Granada for an extended time and wanted to learn about the local history so we decided to take this tour to learn about the cathedral and chapel. We had Mercedes as a tour guide and she was wonderful. We brought our 6 year old child and she was so good with him. The tour was an hour and a half which was perfect for him and for us but we learned so much in that amount of time. So glad we did it!

Visit to the Granada chapel - The guide was an amazing story teller. She created invaluable context. The chapel is much more rememberable than the cathedral.

Insightful - Very worthwhile experience - usually just see the thing and don't fully appreciate the nuance and historical context so this was a first for me to participate in a guided tour with a local expert. A little long in parts, perhaps could have been reduced by 30 minutes for my taste, but glad to have done it.
