Great experience, very glad we took part. Our guide was Thomas who had an encyclopedic knowledge of the geography and history of the area. The only problem was that the chain kept coming off his bike, so he had to do some walking. Other than that it would be 5 stars all round. I would have no hesitation in recommending this tour to get a real feeling for the area.I was worried about climbing the steep hills on a bike but the electric motor made it a piece of cake.

I was worried about climbing the steep hills on a bike but the electric motor made it a piece of cake. It was much easier than walking and more intimate than a bus. Pablo was our guide and he was a trooper. Not only was he friendly and informative but when one of the streets was blocked by a tractor, he muscled each of our bikes through the narrow opening for us. You know you’re with a great guide when they make it fun despite something going wrong. We highly recommend TourBike Granada and suggest you ask for Pablo.Victor was our tour guide. He was excellent. He answered all our questions thoroughly and with a tinge of humor. He even provided us with the names of his favourite restaurants. When you book your tour ask for Victor.
