Step by Step

Discover Granada on this walking tour of the Albaicín and Sacromonte with a visit to the Royal Chapel and the Cathedral. A professional guide will accompany you throughout the approximately four hours that the tour lasts for groups of about 20 people. In just one day you will see four of the points of interest that most attract tourists to Granada, one of the most visited cities in Spain.

Get to know the best of Granada with this tour that will take you to the Cathedral of Granada, considered the first Renaissance church in Spain and one of the best examples of this architectural style. For all these reasons, its history and monumentality make it one of the most important landmarks in the city centre.

Right next to it is the Royal Chapel, which you can visit on this tour. It is a Gothic building that houses the tombs of the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella of Castile, and their heirs Philip I and Joanna of Castile. It is a real luxury to be able to see four of the most important figures in Spanish history in the same place.

Another stop on this tour is the Albaicín neighbourhood. You'll see what it's like to climb a steep hill to reach this district, one of the best-known in the provincial capital. It could be considered the Moorish quarter of the city, where its best known viewpoint is the Mirador de San Nicolás, although it has many more spectacular and less touristy ones. Its most popular square is the Plaza Larga, ideal for a break and a beer.

You will also have the opportunity to pass through Sacromonte. It is the traditional home of Granada's gypsies , who have resided here in caves since the 16th century, and for many years has attracted tourists as one of the birthplaces of some of the country's great flamenco artists.

    The Royal Chapel of Granada was the one that made the biggest impact on me in terms of history. To be able to witness the remains of the Catholic Monarchs Isabella, Ferdinand and others was very moving.

    I was very happy with this service. Walking through the neighbourhoods and getting to know a bit more about them together with the guide was great. Also, the organisation inside the chapel and the cathedral was great.
