Make the most of your trip to Granada on this walking tour of two of its most unique neighborhoods, Albaicin and Sacromonte, and a guided visit of the iconic Alhambra.

Alhambra + Albaicin & Sacromonte Guided Tour

At the designated time, you'll delve deep into the magic of the incredible city of Granada, kicking off your day at the Alhambra, one of Spain's most visited monuments and one of the finest examples of Andalusia's Nasrid legacy.

Accompanied by your expert English-speaking guide who will entertain and inform you with fascinating facts about the fortified palace complex, you'll explore the beautiful Nazaries Palaces, the Alcazaba, the Partal, and the Medina, as well as the spectacular Generalife and its exquisite gardens.

After exploring the so-called red fortress, your tour of Granada from the Plaza de Isabel la Catolica, a historic square in the heart of the city center, up to the Abaicin district. Strolling through the winding streets, emblematic of its Medieval Arab heritage, you'll soon see why this is the city's most famous neighborhood and a UNESCO-recognized World Heritage Site. You'll be captivated by the beauty of the area as you pass ancient minarets, hammams, cisterns, and typical Granada villas with their flower-filled courtyards.

Next, you'll be immersed in the magical Sacromonte quarter, known worldwide for its whitewashed cave houses built into the hills, its vibrant gypsy spirit, and zambra, a traditional local form of flamenco. Wander through its streets, taking in the charms of the historic neighborhood and, of course, admiring the incomparable views from its hillside vantage point. An unforgettable tour of the contrasts of Granada.

Tour Schedule

First, we'll take the guided tour of the Alhambra, which lasts three hours. The starting time varies according to the season. After visiting the ancient Nasrid palace, you'll have free time in Granada.

Afterwards, we'll meet again to visit the Albaicín and Sacromonte. The guided walking tour through these neighborhoods could be done the day after visiting the Alhambra or the day before, but you'll have to specify this during the reservation.

Important Info

During the tour of Sacromonte and Albaicín, we won't go inside any museum or monument with paid entrance, but we'll visit the streets and outside areas to admire the beauty and majesty of its architecture.
Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult, and each booking is limited to a maximum of three children per adult.

Tour Availability

The daily number of tickets to the Alhambra is limited, so we recommend booking as far in advance as possible, especially on weekends, bank holidays and public holidays. Although this doesn't usually happen, it's possible that once the booking is made there is no availability. If this happens we'll contact you as soon as possible to give you an alternative date.
