Full description
In the morning, you'll visit the Alhambra, the most visited monument in Spain and one of the best examples of Islamic art in the world. Millions of visitors admire its palaces, gardens and walls every year. Discover the beauty of this Word Heritage Site on a combination tour. The Nasrid dynasty complex, built on the Sabika Hill, is the most impressive fortified complex of Muslim Spain and its walls still stand as witnesses to the golden age of Granada.  In the afternoon, you'll visit the Albaicín, Granada’s ancient quarter, and certainly at one time the most beautiful. Walk along its narrow, cobbled streets, and admire the flowering balconies and stunning views of the Moorish fortress. Discover mansions built as residences for the Nasrid nobles during the 14th and 15th centuries. You’ll explore both the monumental Alhambra and the secret and charming Albaicín with your expert guide, stopping for a break for lunch in between. Enjoy a full day full of Spanish history and art.

Very interesting guided tour. Our guide, Andrea, very competent and passionate, was able to make us discover, in French, the historical site of the Alhambra for 3 hours. Thanks for this beautiful discovery. Sow, our very friendly afternoon guide, showed us, still in French, the Albaicin and Sacromonte districts, full of mysterious little streets.

Al inicio hubo un poco de desorganización y “mala follá” por parte del muchacho recepcionista con el paraguas blanco (que lo tenía en el piso) y que nadie lo veía… después de todo el relajo para entrar nos tocó Ada, una guía muy simpática que explica y cuenta muchos detalles interesantes de la Alhambra, que es uno de los lugares más maravillosos del mundo!

the visit to the Alhambra and the Generalife was great, very interesting, very well commented by a very friendly French-speaking guide. in short, a great moment of 3 hours. I thought I would also have a visit to the Albaicin but although we had a time and a place to meet, there was no one there and we still haven't understood why. Either way, I highly recommend this tour.
