My name is Laura. I am an accredited Andalusian tourist guide, specialising in the city of Granada -my birthplace and home - and its surrounding Province. I have a Master's in tourism, but I am also a writer, and passionate about art and history. I have been working as a guide five years now, and I really love my work. Working in the city I love and showing my clients around it, connecting with them through its history and people is a priviledge. I would like to invite you to a feast for the senses, to learn about the history of an enchanted city, and to feel its magic. Walk into the past through its streets and its old quarters. Discover its society and its ways. Experience its sounds and fragrances, and wonder at its beauty and the sensuality of its art. I am your companion and guide, helping you to adapt the tour to your particular interests to make this visit an enjoyable and great experience. Master in Tourism Accredited Andalusian guide. Junta de Andalucía. None

Overview of your Granada tour

The early settlers in Granada chose well. Long ago, one civilisation after another made here their castles, palaces, houses, markets, gardens, irrigation systems. My beautiful child neighborhood, a white labyrinth above a green valley well-watered by snowmelt from the mountains of the Sierra Nevada and protected by its strong fortifications, blends into a beautiful, many-coloured landscape, offering one of the most wonderful of views - the Alhambra set against the background of the immense, snow-capped Sierra Nevada: an image from the Thousand and One Nights. Let me explain you why was Granada the heart of the medieval Islamic realms of southern Spain. For longer than anywhere else in Spain, almost eight hundred years - it was part of the great Islamic culture that extended beyond Europe across North Africa and Central Asia; a culture that was woven into its art, language and its way of life. Swim with me on its mistery, landscapes, charm, and unexpected surprises.

Laura was a terrific guide. She quickly understood our interests and began to customize the tour for us - or at least it sure felt like it! She was fun and mixed folk lore with history. She answered many questions about our visit but unrelated to the tour. I strongly recommend Laura for anyone coming to Granada.

Laura was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable. And easy to spend two days with. We toured the Alhambra on one day and the albaicin and sacromonte on day two. If you are looking for a guide in Granada book with Laura. You will not regret it.

Laura was terrific in all respects. This was a busy day in Granada, because the Alhambra was closed due to an European Union event. She made the best of it, and we visited nearby historic areas and saw some interesting places. We also got good views of the Alhambra. She was very solicitous to our personal needs to ensure that we were always comfortable and suitably engaged. I would happily engage her again.

Laura was very knowledgable of the area. She knows the history and could answer all our varied questions. She knows all the best spots to view the city and the Alhambra from Sacromonte. She helped us get a reservation at a restaurant to see Flamenco and asked another restaurant if we could enter to see the "cave" structure of the Sacromonte dwellings. She was amazing. We learned a great deal from her about Granada and its history.
