Overview of your Granada tour:

We meet at the Plaza Nueva, right at the bottom of the Albayzin. A public bus brings us up into the heart of the Sacramonte. It is well known for its fantastic views of the Alhambra. A typical housing since ancient times is the cave. I will explain you more about it. I highly recommend the Cave Museum. It has a lot of helpful information. This quarter is known as the traditional gipsy quarter. They live hear since the 15 th century. I would like to guide you through this quarter on little paths that connect it with the Albayzin. The last is known as the old arabic quarter. We stroll through its narrow streets and learn about the typical houses in this area: the Carmen. They are like little paradises. From the Saint Nicolas Square you get a unique view of the Alhambra. This quarter has got a special atomoshere and history. I will recreate it for you. Slowly we will reach the Darro river in the valley and reach the crowded Plaza Nueva again. The tour ends at the old silk market

Your Granada tour itinerary

We start the tour at the central square Plaza Nueva. After a short introduction we take the public bus that brings us just into the heart of the Sacramonte quarter. We will have the opportunity to see the typical houses which are caves and a museum dedicated to this ancient housing form (optional). We use a path with no cars right in the middle of the quarter which will give us the possibility to enjoy wonderful views of the Alhambra. This path leads us directly into the next quarter, the Albayzin. It is known as the old arabic quarter which is the oldest part of Granada. I show you the typical houses, the Carmen. It's a little paradise and the word has an arabic root. Naturally we visit the amazing viewing point of the Saint Nicolas square. Our way through narrow streets down the hill leads us to the Darro river in the valley. I explain you interesting details about the special history of this quarter, that belongs to the World Heritage since 1994. Crossing Plaza Nueva we reach the former silk market.
