Description

ready to get to know Granada in one tour?

We will start knowing the historic center of the city, a cultural mix where we will find the Cathedral, the Royal Chapel, the Madrasa (Islamic school) and the Arab market of the Alcaicería. The same environment that shows us the imprint of Islamic and Christian culture in the city. In addition to some of its imperial buildings such as the Royal Chancery in Plaza Nueva.

We will continue walking to the Albaicín, origin of the city and oldest neighborhood, where we will enjoy the wonderful views offered by its viewpoints, its cobbled streets and white houses, without forgetting to walk along the Darro River, one of the most beautiful and romantic of the whole city; the Paseo de los Tristes.

And of course, we can't say goodbye without visiting Sacromonte, the flamenco and caves district, ¡OLÉ!

Don't miss it,
come, I'll be waiting for you!

Marta

The sparkle in her eyes, the smile on her face and the her unbridled enthusiasm of our guide Marta made the tour memorable. Great local knowledge and really useful advice made our stay in Grenada brilliant. Her advice and tips on where to go and what to see were spot on. Thanks Marta

Albicin and Sacramonte areas of Granada.

Marta is a great tour guide. Marta explained about all the history of the albacin and Sacramonte cave houses. Marta's stories of how people lived and how life was then. It was a very educational tour of Granada!

Highly Recommend!

Marta was excellent - so knowledgeable and passionate about the history, culture and evolution of Granada and Spain. Her spoken English was outstanding and engagement with the group was excellent. The use of an ear/microphone device meant that we could all hear Marta's information and could walk at our own pace. It was so nice to see the Albaicin and Sacromonte regions as well as some amazing (untouristy - if that's a word!) views of the Alhambra ; an added optional bonus (€1pp) we were able to go inside a cave house in the Sacromonte area. Marta was engaging, humorous and looked after everyone in the group. Marta also followed up the tour with recommendations of further places to visit, eat and enjoy. This walking tour is something you should not miss. Book it !

Fascinating and Fun

Marta gave a very informative tour with an excellent mixture of historical facts, recommendations of places to visit, where to eat and how to get the most from our stay in Granada together with some lighter information. Highly recommended.

We learned so much!

Marta was a fabulous guide. We were entertained and saw so much as we walked for 2 1/2 hours around Granada, Albaicin and Sacromente. Thank you so much. We highly recommend.
