Summary

Greet your knowledgeable guide at a central Granada location, then embark on your enriching exploration of the city. Weave your way around the ambient historic center, strolling through Bib Rambla Square as you note the cosmopolitan cultural influences manifested in the architecture. Gaze at the buttery sandstone façade of Granada Cathedral as you guide offers insight into the legends that surround it, then venture to the Moorish silk market of Alcaicería to admire its opulent features. Hear about Granada’s power and prosperity under the Nasrid rule and learn about the Islamic and Catholic influences that have shaped the city’s spectacular skyline. Next, ascend a gentle hill and arrive amid the antique charm of Albaicin, an UNESCO-listed enclave considered the historical heart of Granada. Marvel at panoramic vistas of the Darro Valley and absorb the regal majesty of the Alhambra palace complex on the adjacent incline. Navigate the ambient labyrinth of streets replete with cobblestones and flower-filled boxes, then bid farewell to your guide at the Plaza Nueva.
