Day 1: Grenada
After a pleasant journey (by the route taken by Washington Irving, author of Tales of the Alhambra) through the stunning scenery of the Andalucian landscape, you will be met in Granada by your local tour guide.
You will start the day by visiting the magical world of Arabian Nights. Your visit begins in the Alhambra Palace, a World Heritage Site and one of the world´s most popular attractions. You will visit the most important halls and courtyards of the Alhambra, including the Alcazaba fortress, the Nasrid Palaces, and the Generalife, the summer palace of the sultan, full of a great variety of gardens and vegetation.
A hallmark of Granada’s Moorish tradition is its use of water – fountains, pools, trickling streams, and of course the Baños Árabes (Arabic baths). Although it might not reach quite the glorious heights of Sultan’s own bath, Granada’s Hammam is still a great way to relax after a tough day on the tapas. A soothing color scheme in yellow and blue, the waft of essential oils, chunky adobe pillars, and seven pools with different temperatures will put you in a heavenly state of calm. If any stress lingers, choose some scented oils and treat yourself to an optional massage.
Day 2: City Tour
We will wait for you for an insightful guided walking tour of the historical side of the city of Granada. View the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel, the Isabel la Católica square, the Alcaicería, or the Albayzin Quarter, the truly magical aspects of this World Heritage Site. Among its narrow, winding, cobbled streets one will find beautiful white-washed old buildings, splendid Arabic shops and restaurants, scenic gardens, and spectacular views of Granada and the Alhambra. After this unforgettable experience, you will have free time to enjoy a traditional meal. After exploring the city you will have free time before returning to Seville.
