Day 01
Seville to Granada and the Alhambra
- Meet your tour guide, get picked up at your hotel in Seville, and head to Granada, at the foot of Sierra Nevada.
- Enjoy a picturesque trip through the olive fields of Andalusia. Skip the long lines at the Alhambra and discover one of Spain's most spectacular palaces and gardens. Sometimes referred to as the "Pearl among Emeralds" for the grandeur of its location and architectural luxury, it invites you to wander through its chambers and gardens with an official guide. The renowned Alhambra of Granada includes the palace, the fortress, and some of the most striking gardens in Spain. As one of the country's most visited monuments, it also offers a fascinating insight into the Nasrid dynasty.
- Head to the Albayzín to taste Andalusian tapas and drinks. One tapa, a generous dish of local food, is served with every drink you order. Your local guide will explain the origins of this tradition. You will also try a special dessert from Granada that was originally made for the Pope.
- Enjoy the breathtaking views of Sierra Nevada as you walk through the gipsy neighbourhood, take in the multicultural influences of the city centre, and learn about the Roman, Muslim, Christian, and gipsy history of Granada.
- Head back to Seville after a full day of history, flavours, and Spanish exoticism.
