Dear travelers, I am a Licensed tour guide for all the region of Andalucia, and I'm currently working as a self-employed tour guide in Granada. I hold a degree in Art History and I'm specialized in Architecture and Cultural Heritage; I'm also trained in Building Techniques, as an expert in Restoration, and therefore my professional background includes fields as Restoration & Archaeology. But I also do love traveling as well, and I've worked in many different areas in the Tourism Industry, which makes me aware of the importance of a flawless and straightforward customer service. I enjoy solo traveling and I've travelled through Europe with an Interrail Pass twice; I've lived in many different places, including a ten-month stay in the USA during my sophomore year in high school; around two years in Italy learning about restoration, and other two years in the UK working as an archaeologist. I always try to get the most out of what life has to offer. The tours I provide in Granada include the Alhambra & Generalife complex or Walking Tours in different parts of the city as Albayzín & Sacromonte, Cathedral, etc. But let me know which are your particular interests and I will design a bespoke tour especially for you! I'm also a real foodie, as my parents had a lovely family restaurant when I was a teenager and we've always been really interested both in traditional gastronomy and in Nouvelle cuisine, and we love to try all the new restaurants in town! Therefore, I also do Tapas Tours, and I have designed a Vegan/vegetarian Tapas Tour, specially conceived for people with food restrictions who want to enjoy a truly Tapas experience in Granada (something sometimes difficult if you don't know where to go!!). All my Tapas Tours are also adapted for people with mobility issues. . . same as the Alhambra tour (not so easy for the City Tour though, but we can always try to give you the best solution, of course!). And obviously, apart from guiding you around Granada, I can also give you some good advices about the best places to eat and where you can find that perfect & unique souvenir. . . So, if you're coming to Granada, and want to get the most out of it, do not hesitate to contact me!!

A moderately demanding walking tour to help you discover the most visited monument in Spain. We will stroll around medieval and renaissance palaces, archaeological remains and scented orchards while I explain you the fascinating history of this part of the world, during a very specific time. . . the decadence of the last muslim kingdom in Al-Andalus, and the conquest of Granada by the Catholic Kings in 1492. Definitely one of the most beautiful places on earth, it's breathtaking views and landscapes will impress you.
The ideal tour would be as follows: -We would meet half an hour before our scheduled time right next to the ticket office, by a big map on the wall where it's written "Alhambra" -Bring and show your identification in order to enter the complex -From here we would stroll down to the Door of Justice -Access into the Alhambra through one of the four original gates -Head to the Nasrid Palaces to access them right in time -Head towards the Generalife -We will go through its famous gardens and orchards, until we arrive to the Royal Almunia of the Sultans of Granada This is a suggested itinerary, let me know what you would like to see and do and I will customize the tour accordingly.

This is a Walking Tour
1f Paseo de la Sabica, Granada, Andalucía, 18009, Spain
At the main entrance of the Alhambra & Generalife complex, right next to the ticket office, in front of a map on the wall where it's written "Alhambra". I would be there waiting for you with a sign with your name on it so you can find me easily.
