A great experience - I really enjoyed the tour. The guide was very knowledgeable, pointing out particular features. The use of a personal microphone with all participants having an ear piece made the commentary clear. He ensured everyone remained with the group. I would definitely recommend.

Infotainment - very nice tour of the place, Cristina super fun and professional! It was super interesting to know how the moros lived in the Alcazaba, how they defended it from the Cristians even tough they were less and also had common people to defend. They lastly perished in the 3 month siege.
