Private Route through Granada, Discover the Legends of the Historic Center and the Albaicín

Granada brings together in less than one square kilometer two civilizations that overlap with a clarity that few European cities can offer. This private route traces the historical transition of the Nasrid city to the Christian one through its most representative monuments, with a dedicated expert guide exclusively for the group throughout the entire tour.

Our visit begins in the heart of the historic center with the Cathedral of Granada, built on the former Nasrid main mosque and considered one of the masterpieces of the Spanish Renaissance. Adjacent to it, the Royal Chapel houses the tombs of the Catholic Monarchs alongside those of Joanna I of Castile and Philip I, as well as a first-rate collection of Flemish painting. From the center, we ascend to the Albaicín, the Andalusian quarter declared a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO, where the medieval urban layout is preserved practically intact among cármenes, small squares and former mosques converted to other uses. The tour culminates at the Mirador de San Nicolás, with the Alhambra and Sierra Nevada as a backdrop.
