Highly recommend this tour!!! The electric bikes were great fun,super speedy but also easy to get the hang of. Lorenzo was an excellent guide. Really knew the history of the area and took us along a mainly coastal footpath route mostly avoiding traffic. The highlights were a sunset cafe where we stopped for a drink/ice cream and the grand dunes- Lorenzo kindly extended the tour so we could enjoy the magnificent sunset over the dunes-which was simply breathaking. An excellent tour and excellent guide- highly recommend!

Baeza tour well organised and very knowledgeable guide but for me it was too much like a class in building styles with a few stories from the lives of historical characters thrown in. In contrast the Ubeda tour used the buildings to illustrate a very well told history of the town which gave a real feel for how it has developed through the ages. It was very interesting.

Top! Full 5 stars ***** We booked a day tour with Sergio as a family. Two days before the tour, Sergio introduced himself personally by email and asked us about our preferences and wishes. The private tour of the island was scheduled for 6-7 hours. We had already visited the typical tourist tours of Gran Canaria in the past and were curious to see what Sergio can show us in addition. Result: We were able to experience the true beauty and overwhelming views of the island on this day and were absolutely thrilled. We saw so many fantastic beautiful spots and fell in love with the island all over again. We were so overwhelmed that we didn't even notice that the tour ended up being 9 hours. Sergio took a lot of nice photos on the side. From the landscape - but what was even better: he also took pictures of us as a family and just gave them to us the next day. So we have wonderful memories of a wonderful day with a very friendly and charming guide. Thank you Sergio!

The tour guide is very knowledgeable and makes Jaen come to life. He cleverly chose details of the cathedral and the baths to illustrate many interesting things about both sites and puts them in their historical context. The whole tour had a theme - a dragon, the Jaen dragon, which makes what could be a difficult and heavy subject great fun. The addition of a bit of olive oil tasting and discussion of olive farming and sustainable agriculture just toped it off. Thoroughly recommended.

The Monumental Ensemble of the Fortress of La Mota, houses the old walled city of Alcalá la Real.This, and the different elements of military architecture of its environment, serve as reference point to know and explain the temporal and spatial process linked to the evolution of the border during the Late Middle Ages, while serving as an example of urban development in the interior of a city intramuros in the period that covers from S. XIV to s. XVIII.

Part ruins, part reconstructed centerpiece of a small hill town along the defensive “wall” of Moorish Andalusia. The site contains the evolution from early Moorish occupation to the return of Catholic rule. It’s layouts, ramparts, and sweeping views are very rewarding. Apparently, we “missed” the ticket booth when we took a path up the hill from the parking lot, only noticing the gift shop on the way down! I don’t think it’s very expensive and an audioguide would have been useful.
