Cristian met us in time in front of the entrance and we started with a tour of the Generalife. After that we proceeded to the Alhambra, and got to see all the palaces. Cristian was polite and likeable and able to tell sufficient background info and some myths about the place. He managed to navigate the spaces well given the other large groups present.
To get 5 stars I'd expect more in-depth information on the architectural aspects (e.g. building technique, use of sprecific plants etc.) as well as slightly more historical context - Cristians tour style is sufficient for a group with average interest, my husband and me being an architect and a historian, we'd have appreciated a slightly higher level of expertise. We communicated our interest, but I suspect that there was a slight language barrier too.
Overall a nice tour and a likeable guide - we do recommend to take the time slot 16:00 or later, the crowds were alright and you get to see the sunset.
