Highlights / General details

HISTORIC GRANADA GUIDED TOUR:

Discover more about the City of Granada and its history with this guided tour within the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel, two of the best examples of the gothic and renaissance style in Spain. Our official guide will go with and tell you the history of the city from the moment of the “reconquista” of Granada to the Muslims and its king Boabdil by Isabel and Fernando, known as the Catholic Monarchs. You will be fascinated by the works of art sheltered inside the Cathedral, such the tombs of the Catholic Monarchs, Juana of Castile (The crazy), Felipe I of Austria (The handsome) and the legacy donated by the queen Isabel of Castile. We will also visit charcoal store and the silk market.
