Tour description
Fall for Andalusia's Moorish jewel on this free walking tour of Granada's old town and the Albaicín. With a local guide you'll start on lively Plaza Nueva, follow the riverside Carrera del Darro, and climb the whitewashed lanes of the Albaicín, the old Moorish quarter, to the Mirador de San Nicolás for postcard views of the Alhambra glowing against the Sierra Nevada. Hear tales of sultans, the Reconquista and flamenco, discover the Cathedral and Royal Chapel, and pick up insider tips on free tapas, teterías and the best sunset spots. Free to join — simply tip your guide whatever you feel it was worth at the end. Note: the Alhambra itself requires a separate advance ticket.
