Granada Walking & Tapas Tour

outside the cathedral

GRANADA

Your private guide spirits you into the Albayzin, the city’s medieval Moorish quarter that survives today as a sideways maze of whitewashed houses, Moroccan-style tea shops, and restaurants in traditional Arab carmen gardens, spilling down the hillside on narrow, winding laneways. Your visit proceeds into the gothic-romantic atmosphere of the city’s 16th century Cathedral, which houses the tombs of iconic Catholic monarchs, Queen Isabella I and King Ferdinand II. Isabella was an avid art-lover and the Chapel is decorated with her impressive collection of Flemish, French, and Spanish paintings. Absorbing so much history tends to generate an appetite, and your guide has particular local favourites to show you among the city’s storied taverns – Granada is legendary among gourmands for the sheer generosity of its tapas culture.
