★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 118 reviews · 7 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $172Our pick

Review of the Alhambra shore excursion from Malaga, with timed entry, port transfers, expert guides, Granada free time, and practical tips.

“Very nice tour. Great Tour guide. However, people with mobility issues should not do this tour. Although this is stated before reserving the tour, we had 7-8 people who could not walk without very frequent stops. They eventually had to leave the tour as they felt they could not walk further. It did slow down the rest of the group.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 26 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $84

Sail the Maro-Cerro Gordo coast from La Herradura, with dolphin spotting, swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, snacks, and cava.

“First of all, meeting point where we should come was empty and no one came to meet us, the guy which should be here was sitting in the boat and wasn't visible. We come by directions on Google maps, and then calling him to get out to see us. Chrismas day with 3 kids, more then hour driving to this place to see dolfins. So, we had to call him to find him and we had nice sailing with boat and nothing else. No dolphins, kids were very disappointed, I felt cheated. And wasted money!”

“SCAM!! Don't even think about booking this activity, we arrived at the meeting point TODAY at 11.30am and there was no one there. I called the person in charge of the activity and he told me that there was a mistake, that there was no ticket when both, my partner's and mine, were confirmed with a reminder included for the activity. The guy doesn't even apologize, and after demanding a solution, he asks me if we're here in Granada another day (I imagine to postpone the activity because he's lost his mind).
