Unique things to do in Granada

Enjoy the sunset over Granada from a stunning mountain peak. IMPORTANT NOTE: if you don't have a car, please ask before booking if transportation is available from the meeting location. Meeting time is 2 hours and 30 min before sunset. If you love nature+mountains, join me and my gorgeous pup to disconnect from the city and enjoy a magical walk in a stunningly beautiful area hidden away from most travelers. It is an easy & varied trail in the mid-mountain area of the Sierra Nevada National & Nature Park, surrounded by breath-taking mountain scenery with stunning views of several three-thousanders, and the entire valley of Granada, crowned by the summit of an emblematic 1.520m/ 5.000ft peak from where we will watch the sunset. This is not a fast-paced hike, but an enjoyable nature walk which is also suited for families and less "athletic" individuals. HOWEVER, the optional ascent to the summit does require some physical effort (although well doable for everyone) NOTE: If you're the only participant, an extra charge of 35€ may be due. Please ask. NOTE 2: being this an outdoor activity, no promises can be made weatherwise (ej. no sunset bc of clouds). And while this or even rain is not a reason to cancel (rain ponchos are provided if required), in dangerours weather conditions, ej. thunder storm, the activity would have to be cancelled.

Join us on this tour of about three hours to discover two neighbourhoods which have been granted the title of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO: the Gypsy District and the Arabic district. Lose yourself in the carousel of tiny, colourful alleys, and discover the centuries-old history of the people who walked these streets, from indigenous people to the Romans, followed by the Visigoths, until we finally meet the real protagonists of this adventure: the Arabs. Located on a hill, the Albaicin will offer you a breathtaking view of the city, but most importantly, of the Alhambra. The military campaigns of the Reconquista (Spanish for “re-conquest”) shaped this landscape from the 8th century until 1492 when the Muslim dynasty of the Nasrid admitted its defeat. Not only Muslims, but also Christians and Jews lived together in this area, but they didn’t have to wait for long until a new character entered the scene: the Gypsies, and their sensual flamenco. Not just a sightseeing tour, but a chance to exchange dreams, stories, and life experiences with our passionate tour guide. Live a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and let Granada’s history guide you to rediscover your true self. Tips: For a better experience, wear comfortable clothes and walking shoes. If you’re doing this tour in summer, please wear a hat, or take an umbrella with you to shield you from the hot Spanish sun.

Tour with me the Albayzín and non-touristy Sacromonte for 2 and a half hours, which the maps do not point out. You will discover viewpoints, corners, streets, curiosities and anecdotes that very few know in Granada. Feel local, try the best bars, and mingle with the Grenadines to better understand how we live. In addition, I will recommend thousands of historical and cultural sights to enrich your experience in this city. It is an easy tour for people of all ages, you just need a comfortable footwear and a camera to photograph the spectacular views.

We will leave Granada in our car, in about 20 minutes we will arrive at the base of the Sierra Nevada National Park, it is the largest national park in Spain, where we will walk approximately 8 kilometers (5 miles), On the way to the route we can see the Mulhacen, the highest peak of the Iberian Peninsula with 3479 meters of height. Since our opinion is the most beautiful and complete route of Granada, the route is divided into two parts. A part to walk right next to the river crossing a canyon, this is a fun way and crossed four hanging bridges, the largest of them is 65 meters, we will have to bend over and grab the rocks in some parts. This is a bit of fun and adventure, but very easy. The other part will walk on the mountain, in this part the views are incredible. We will contemplate the city from the points of view. In the afternoon experience, we will stop at a viewpoint to watch the sunset. From our point of view, one of the most beautiful sunsets in the city, as we will see how the Sun hides behind the mountains and the city. Other things to note If you are a group of more than 8 people, write me!
