Overview

We will start our route in La Caleta, a charming walk that will take us to the entrance of the Arab part in Calle Elvira, where you will feel like in Marrakech. Then, we will walk up the steep cobblestone streets of the Albaizyn, enjoying viewpoints such as San Miguel Bajo and visiting the traditional Cármenes, until we reach the famous Mirador de San Nicolás, with the best views of the city, the Alhambra and flamenco music in the atmosphere.

Afterwards, we will go down the Albaicín again, when we leave the neighborhood, we will enter the Palacio de los Cordova. Then we will go to the famous Paseo de Los Tristes and the Acera del Darro, enjoying the breathtaking views of the Alhambra above us and telling all its stories and curiosities.

To close with a flourish, we will go into the commercial heart of the city, appreciating its magnificent architecture and monuments such as the Chancillería, Plaza Isabel, to finish at the Royal Chapel and Cathedral of Granada. At the end of the tour, you will have discovered and learned the best of Granada! Don't miss it!

“fatal, do not waste time.”
Total informality. From the first day ,trying to change the chosen tour. Constantly asking by WhatsApp, using my phone number. In the end by insistence I accept to change the tour and at the last moment they still cancel the accepted tour. Fatal ... bad coordination and little seriousness.

Jose Antonio is a great guide and gave us a very good and complete tour. Jose Antonio has a lot of knowledge of the city and history and several anecdotes of the city that you would not have known without him. We highly recommend him, do not hesitate to call him when you come to Granada!

“Phenomenal. 100% recommendable”
The route was done by Jose. He is a walking encyclopedia. The guide is an exceptional experience to discover places, facts, events, legends, etc. of Granada. Jose is approachable, entertaining, fun and you can see that he puts a lot of enthusiasm to the work he does. Any doubt about the Alhambra, kings, monuments, he solves it. And also along the route shows different images of Granada (among others) to link and remember the route that is done with the event. Highly recommended to do this route, really. It is an immersive experience that, thanks to the way it is carried out, introduces you fully into history. In addition, the way it is carried out makes the group members participate, talk, ask questions... in short, 100% recommendable.
