Full description

Depart Seville and journey to the city of Granada to take a tour of the historic Alhambra, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its cultural importance and architectural beauty. Benefit from the services of an official tour guide and expert interpreter of the heritage of the city and fortress, built for the Nasrid emirs who ruled Spain in the 13th and 14th centuries. Marvel at the fortifications of the Alcazaba (citadel), built to protect the city's post-Roman districts, including the Moorish suburb of "El Albayzín." Admire the beauty of the Nasrid Palaces and Generalife, the summer pleasure gardens of the Emir. Next, drive to the center of Granada for lunch (own expense). Then, take a guided walk of the UNESCO-protected Albaicín district where the winding streets are reflective of its Medieval Moorish past. Stroll past whitewashed houses and encounter age-old churches and flower-filled balconies. Stop to take in the spectacular panoramas over the Alhambra fortress perched on its hill. Return to Seville at the end of your historical adventure, and get dropped off at your original starting point.

GUSTAVO is the best tour guide out there!! If you ever want a tour of Alhambra that is not boring, you better find Gustavo. He made the tour fun with his knowledge of the history and great sense of humor. It was totally worth it. My wife, father and I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you!

Highly recommended! Everything was well organized! Clearly, we also received the departure point and time via app the day before. Even with a photo of the starting point. A nice nice guide. With clear information and caring for his group. And then the Alhambra……. Insanely beautiful and the local guide who led us through the Alhambra was passionate and captivated the whole group. The ride there in a comfortable bus.

My husband and I took the tour to Granada from Seville where we were picked up at the indicated time with the utmost punctuality. The guide Romano was very attentive and very concerned for the group. The guide Emilio who attended us at La Alhambra was very entertaining with all the explanation. In general we were very satisfied with the entire tour.
