Description
Living in the Earth's Interior: The Gypsy Roots and Culture of Albaicín and Sacromonte
Our exclusive private tours begin at your hotel, accommodating a maximum of six participants. During this fully personalized four-hour excursion, we will explore two of Granada's most iconic neighborhoods: El Sacromonte and El Albaicín.
Join us on an expertly guided walking tour through El Albaicín, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its vibrant colors, rich history, and charming character. Our local guide will introduce you to its landmarks, monuments, and fascinating people through captivating stories, legends, and anecdotes.
In Sacromonte, we will delve into the world of gypsy art, the history of flamenco (an Intangible Heritage of Humanity), and the unique culture that has significantly influenced Granada and its citizens.
No visit to Sacromonte would be complete without exploring the Cave Museum, where you can see and enter 15 authentic cave dwellings preserved with original furnishings from Moorish and Gypsy times. This essential stop will provide a deeper understanding of the deeply rooted and personal way of life that has shaped these multicultural neighborhoods.
