History of Flamenco in Sacromonte. Carmen is an enthusiastic story teller and promoter of local culture

This was a wonderful time and experience. I would definitely recommend others experience this your. We had a wonderful tour guide as well.

We got late to join the tour due to a situation with kids and couldn’t join the tour. They were nice to offer the same tour slot the next day with no extra charge. Maria was our English tour guide. She was very thorough with lots of historical details, open to any additional questions and very thoughtful of keeping the group together. Many times she would stop to regroup without rushing. We thought the historical facts shared were something that one would have to read several books to collect them. Fully recommend for families visiting Granada to take the tour. Our 10 year old loved the tour and stayed close to the guide throughout the tour to not miss anything.

Was a great tour and an excellent tour guide - thank you Chema ( not sure if that’s the correct spelling ). We were just two people on the English speaking trip which we were so pleased went ahead (after disappointing experiences with other companies) and our guide gave us so much information and historical detail and was great showing us great viewpoints for sunset photos and providing us all the time we needed to get some excellent shots. He told us about places we could visit at a later date and on the tour showed us places we never would have found on our own - thank you Chema!

Maria was excellent at giving us the historical context of the Albaicin, the Sacromonte and the reconquista.

Marta was an excellent guide!! Her love and vast knowledge of Grenada and its unique culture made this a very important tour- do not miss the opportunity to see the real Grenada, its roots, traditions and history. A perfect compliment to Alhambra tours. Lots of walking and uphill so wear tennis shoes for sure!

Fatima_A

The tour was worth it.. the best way yo see the city and take panoramic photos. Our guide Chema was friendly, very informative and has a good sense of humor

Justine_O

We enjoyed walking around and hearing more about these two areas, plus general history of Granada also. There are a lot of steps and slopes, but the guide takes this gradually, with plenty of stops and discussions on the way, so it is managable. Being in the evening, we had fabulous sunset and evening views of Granada and Al Hambra, plus it wasn't too hot on the walk.

Shona_H

Francisco was a brilliant guide. Incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Granada but also bringing it to life with stories of his family life as he is a local! He paced the trip very well and was very caring - as it was a heatwave! Highly recommend.

Raana_A

Great way to get a lay of the land. We did it on our first day in Granada and didn’t regret it. We picked a 7:30pm time in June and the weather was great. Our tour guide was really kind and thorough.
