Our take
The Alpujarra is one of those places that stays with you, and a guide makes it far more meaningful: its role in the history of the kingdom of Granada, its traditions and its village architecture. Being private, the day adapts to you, and the operator is happy to add villages. It's rated 4.8 out of 5 on Tripadvisor. The price is per group: €640 for one or two, €800 for four, with lunch extra. For couples it's pricey next to a group trip; for a family of four it's fair for your own car and guide.
