Free Walking Tours Granada

Granada is an incredibly welcoming city filled with Moorish, gothic, baroque, and neoclassical architecture seen in tall buildings and churches among beautiful mazed, narrow streets. Tourists joining the Free Walking Tours of Granada have the opportunity to enjoy its gorgeous cityscape, impressive flamenco culture, street art, culinary delights, and vestiges. The Essential Granada City Tour is the must-join activity in the city. It covers the Cathedral and all the important sights in the city center in just 2-2,5 hours. The second most important tour in the city is the Free Albaicin & Sacromonte Tour, which covers the old bazaar area and the mountain where Flamenco art is kept alive in many caves. Finally, there are also interesting Free Myths and Legends Tours of Granada which show a different side of the city. This night tour is an entertaining experience lead by experienced guides who share spooky stories about mysteries, crimes and unsolved murders in the city.

Free Tours in Granada give travelers an incredible chance to walk through emblematic places such as Alhambra and Generalife, both UNESCO World Heritage Buildings, with reliable and entertaining guides. The wonderful Alhambra is the last stronghold of the Muslim kings who reigned over the territory in the Middle Ages. Nearby is the Generalife, a summer palace boasting lush gardens with fresh fountains and wonderful decorations. Don’t forget to book your tickets well in advance! In the old city center you will find the majestic Cathedral, as well as the Royal Chapel where Queen Isabella I and King Ferdinand, the Catholic Monarchs, are buried. The Palace of Charles V, the Alcazaba, the Royal Monastery of St. Jerome, the 11th century Arab Baths (el Bañuelo), Elvira Gate, the 15th-century Nasrid palace Dar al-Horra Palace, Bib-Rambla Square, San Nicolas Viewpoint... are just a few of the many wonderful must-see places in Granada.

Granada is home to a myriad of monuments, palaces, and churches born from an absolutely unique crossroads of cultures. But it is also a vibrant, energetic city with an incredible array of outdoor and cultural activities perfect for tourists from all backgrounds. Taking a Granada Free Walking Tour to hike up the steep Albaicin, getting lost in the wonderful narrow streets of the old bazaar and listening to flamenco in the many caves of Sacromonte are must-do activities in Granada. We also recommend taking a long walk along the cobbled path beside the Darro River—the ‘promenade of the sad’. The Alcaiceria and San Agustin Market are good places to buy Andalusian food, especially fresh fish, as well as tea and sweets. Finally, for outdoor activity lovers, Granada offers many hiking, skiing and snowboarding opportunities in the stunning natural environment of Sierra Nevada. Travelers looking for swimming, snorkeling or diving opportunities, can take day trips to Salobreña o Almuñecar.
