Description

Discover the beautiful city of Granada, a destination full of history and culture, and enjoy a full day exploring it your way with one of our options: Option 1: Guided tour of the Alhambra and Generalife Immerse yourself in the majesty of the Alhambra with a guided tour that will take you through this iconic Moorish monument, a World Heritage Site. Accompanied by an expert guide, you'll tour the lush Generalife Gardens, the Palace of Charles V, and the stunning Nasrid spaces, such as the Mexuar, the Palace of Comares, and the Palace of the Lions. Before entering the Alhambra, you will enjoy a guided tour of the historic center of Granada, where you will discover the Cathedral, the Royal Chapel and the old souk. You will also have free time to wander around at your leisure and try the delicious local tapas. Option 2: Alhambra audio-guided For a more flexible experience, you can opt for an Alhambra tour with an audio guide. Admire the rich architecture of the place, adapted to all the changes that the complex underwent over the centuries. Walk through the Generalife Gardens and marvel at what was the palace's recreational area during the Nasrid dynasty. Once finished, you will be able to explore the city, with the option to join the guided Free Tour to delve into its fascinating past. Option 3: Granada on your own If you prefer to discover Granada at your own pace, you can explore its most authentic corners in complete freedom. Walk through its streets in your own way and, if you wish, join a guided Free Tour through the historic center and the Albaicín, the most emblematic Arab neighborhood with spectacular views of the Alhambra. During your free time, enjoy the local cuisine, visit the Alhambra on your own (entrance fee not included), or simply get lost in its charming streets. At the end of the visit, regardless of the option, we will return to our destination of origin in Costa del Sol. Choose the option that best suits your travel style and experience the magic of Granada.
