Description:

At the foot of the Sierra Nevada Mountains sits the city of Granada. Discover the blend of Moorish and Catholic influences within this city’s heritage at the Alhambra—a World Heritage Site—and the gardens of the Generalife. Enjoy wandering through charmingly social Plaza Bib-Rambla as well.

Begin your tour with a scenic drive to Granada, and take a break as you take in Andalusia's stunning landscapes. Upon your arrival at the city proper, begin to uncover Spain’s vast and varied history with a stop at the magnificent Alhambra—one of the most visited monuments in the world.

Wander through this fortified paradise and admire the opulently decorated functional areas, colorful tiles, and intricate walls that the Moors adorned with passages from the Koran. Also, be sure to explore the Alcazaba, one of the Alhambra's oldest ramparts.

Continue onward to the gardens of the Generalife, which was a place of leisure and recreation for the Moorish kings of Granada and is situated next to the Alhambra. Here you can feel a quiet serenity amid ponds, flora, and fountains, and cherish the remarkable view of Grananda that this locale offers.

Head to Plaza Bib-Rambla—an amiable square that’s the heart of the city’s social life. Enjoy lunch at the one of many local cafés, or peruse inviting markets for a memorable souvenir before returning to Seville.
