Description
Muslim groups from East and North Africa (Arabs, Syrians and Berbers) arrived and invaded Spain from 711 to 1492 A. D. During this period, the last 200 years of the Muslim invasion this city, Granada, became the last capital of the last Muslim resistance. As the last line of defense, the last Muslim dynasty will build what we consider nowadays as the 8th Wonder of the World, the Alhambra. After having studied a Master of the Legacy of Al-andalus and worked both as a restorer and tour guide in the Alhambra, I know exactly how to bring it back to life for you. All together with my great passion for teaching and my unconditional love as "granaino" (local from Granada) for this city, this makes my tours pleasant, fun and above all that you will remember with such a great affection. Also no queues or waits. Completely personalized for your interest in lifestyle back then, art knowledge and folklore for all interests, from children to adults.
I can customize this tour according to your preferences.
