Mirador de San Nicolas

Place of crossroads of cultures and the most beautiful sunsets in the world. What else can be done in this viewpoint apart from contemplating the Alhambra

Paseo de los Tristes

Walking along the Paseo de los Tristes is one of the essentials when you come to the city, but why isn't it on the maps? When you arrive in Granada, if you are looking for the Paseo de los Tristes, map in hand, you can go crazy touring the city. In no street map or GPS you will find reference to this famous place in the city. It is one of the most recommended places in any travel guide and by any self-respecting Grenadian, but it does not appear anywhere. The Paseo de los Tristes is in the Valle del Darro, between the hills of the Alhambra and the Albaicín, an idyllic place. For many, the most beautiful street in the world next to Carrera del Darro. Colors and essences, palaces, churches, convents, museums and medieval buildings surround it, making it the ideal place to sit and rest or enjoy the beauty of Granada.

Sacromonte

Traditionally the neighborhood of the Granadian Romani, who settled in Granada after the Christian conquest of the city in 1492, it is one of the most picturesque neighbourhoods of the city, with cave houses installed in whitewashed caves

Very interesting trip that let me live in the glorious history of Muslim Andalusia. With the tour guid Mohammed Naciri, the trip was more informative and exciting

My husband and I had the great fortune of touring the Alhambra and Nasrid Palace with Mohammed. Mohammed’s in depth knowledge of art, architecture, religious and cultural history made the palaces come alive. Our private tour lasted three hours and was well worth it! Mohammed is kind and friendly and eager to share his encyclopedic knowledge of the complex with visitors. I recommended Mohammed as a guide to my friend and her daughter. They too , thoroughly enjoyed spending time learning about the Alhambra’s remarkable history with Mohammed. If you are considering visiting the Alhambra and want a private tour with an English speaking (as well as Spanish & Arabic) tour guide, Mohammed is the best!
