Tour description
Fall in love with Andalusia's Moorish jewel on a free walking tour exploring Granada's old town and the Albaicín. Alongside a local guide, you will start from the vibrant Plaza Nueva, stroll along the riverside street of Carrera del Darro, and wind through the whitewashed alleys of the Albaicín—the ancient Moorish quarter—up to the Mirador de San Nicolás viewpoint to admire postcard-perfect vistas of the Alhambra glowing against the Sierra Nevada mountains. Listen to tales of sultans, the Reconquista, and flamenco; discover the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel; and pick up insider tips on free tapas, traditional tetería teahouses, and the best sunset spots. Free to join—simply tip your guide whatever you feel the tour was worth at the end. Please note: entrance tickets to the interior of the Alhambra must be booked separately in advance.
