Highlights
- Plaza Nueva - We will make an introduction to the Tour from this emblematic place.
- El Banuelo - From here we will tell interesting historical details of several points that surround us and that would go unnoticed to the eye of the traveler. Does not include access within the Bañuelo.
- El Maristan de Granada - We will tell the story of this “special hospital” built by Muhammad V. The rehabilitation work is currently approved, so it cannot be passed inside (they are ruins).
- Casa de Zafra - One of the best preserved treasures of the Albaicin, we will explain about its history. Normally on Sundays the entrance is free, other days it could have cost (in this case, if you wish, we recommend visiting outside the tour).
- Calle Guinea - In the cistern of Trillo we will talk about the importance of water and how they did to bring it here.
- Placeta Comino - Another wonderful place to see the Alhambra.
- Mirador de San Nicolas - Who comes to Granada can not leave without going through here. Amazing postcard views where you can take great photos. If possible, we will enter the Mosque gardens.
- Plaza Larga - Here there was a market and the one who cheated received his punishment. We explain it to you on the tour.
- Iglesia Parroquial de Nuestro Salvador - Hence a popular phrase that is often used. We will give details that happened during historical acts of conversion to Christianity.
- Sacromonte - We will tour the Sacromonte areas, give details of how the cave houses are and tell about the history of this neighborhood.
- Carmen de la Victoria - If it is open and gives time, we will enjoy the gardens of this Carmen.
-
Paseo de los Tristes - We will finish on the promenade of the sad ones and at the foot of the Alhambra we will tell some of their secrets. There are details and places that we don’t tell, they will be surprise.
Here we finish the tour and you can walk peacefully along the Paseo de los Tristes back to the city center.
