Step by Step

This free tour of Granada is the perfect way to start getting to know the city and understand its fascinating past. For around two hours, you’ll stroll alongside an expert guide through some of the must-see spots in the historic centre and the Lower Albaicín, discovering the Arab, Christian and Jewish heritage that can still be seen in its streets and monuments.

The tour begins in Plaza Bib-Rambla and continues around Granada Cathedral, the Church of El Sagrario, the old Alcaicería and other sites linked to the city’s transformation following the Christian conquest, such as the Royal Chapel and the Madraza. The guide will weave together history, interesting facts and legends to help you see Granada in a new light.

You’ll then immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Lower Albaicín, wandering through historic streets and squares until you reach areas such as the Carrera del Darro, one of Granada’s most beautiful promenades. Along the way, you’ll also come across vantage points from which to admire the Alhambra and take in some of the city’s most iconic views.

The experience is rounded off with the guide’s recommendations for tapas, traditional sweets and Granada’s cuisine, so you can continue exploring the city after the tour. And as with any free tour, there’s no fixed price: at the end, you decide how much to tip the guide based on how much you enjoyed the experience.

    The experience was enriching and the guide knew the city well, but it would be ideal if the group was smaller for more personalised attention.
