Spain has singularities that make it unique and special, but for me there is no other like GRANADA, for the sinuosity of its narrow streets and neighborhoods, the majestic and almost heavenly presence of the Sierra Nevada, the sensual magic of his vibrant nights. What I like the most is that I can share these feelings and engage with all those who always want new experiences and thus enrich their restless spirits.
Come and enjoy your visit without missing a thing!
The City
The Gastronomy
Granada is not just a historical city where sightseeing… It is the homeland of TAPAS! One of the best ways of getting to know a new culture is through its food. Are you a foody?.. Yes, of course you are! Let’s “go for tapas” and feel like local, not a tourist… Really experience Granada through local eyes, sample what the city is all about through its food. You’ll need a local person to show you and will be like a inhabitant of Granada enjoying tapas at the most local neighborhood.
The People
Granada is a city that falls in love with it, and for centuries Granada has been a cosmopolitan city with a great history. People from all corners of the world come to visit and decide to stay and live for their modern and traditional character at the same time.
Granada is home to one of the oldest universities in Spain. Thousands of students give it a youthful atmosphere that is noticeable in its streets.
Mix with his people. You’ll also fall in love with her!
“Granada seems to specialize in evocative history and good living. Settle down in the old center and explore monuments of the Moorish civilization and its conquest. Taste the treats of a North African-flavored culture that survives here today. This city has much to see, yet it reveals itself in unpredictable ways; it takes a poet to sort through and assemble the jumbled sharts of Granada. Peer through the intricate lattice of Moorish window.
Hear water burbling unssen among the labyrinthine hedges of the Generalife Gardens. Lisen to a flute trilling deep in he swirl of alleys around the Cathedral.
DON´T BE BLIND IN GRANADA-OPEN ALL YOUR SENSES.”

WHAT MAKES YOU A LOCAL?
There is nothing I like more than walking around Granada, have breakfast in the Albaicin and then follow my visit to the city center, stop for shopping and suddenly enter in a bar for sample new tapas at some little hidden place. That’s Granada, in a moment you would feel you’re in a bazaar in the Middle East and then in 5 minutes back to Europe. Let’s to take a walk around its narrow streets , tea shops, hills and tucked-away spots reminiscence of north Africa and old Mediterranean towns or visit the beautiful white washed villages in Alpujarra, Sierra Nevada mountains.
Come to LIVE Granada like a GRANADINO!

Our Collaborator
Antonio Farfán. Alpujarra local expert tour guide
The first time I came to this place as a tourist, fifteen years ago. I couldn’t imagine that La Alpujarra would became my home. I settled here and founded my family.
Now I would like to show you all the things that made me become a local and love this land.
Whether you hike the Alpujarra tracks, taste the local food, or learn about the processes involved in agricultural work, you will find yourself immersed in a totally different culture and surrounded by beautiful scenery.
Find the real sense of freedom…
Testimonials
“Gaby was an incredible guide. We saw so much of the city and she was very knowledgeable of city history and the mix of the various cultures. She directed us to nice non tourist spots as well as popular highlights. We totally enjoyed the tour and Gaby’s company”
Tracey Nixon
“Garbiela was a terrific guide and a tireless walker! We had a great time and would have booked another tour with her if we had the time. Her knowledge and sense of humor kept even our two teenagers fully engaged even in the 100 degree heat.”
Bruce Knoblock
“The tour was excellent. We received so much information not only from the historical perspective but also some contemporary practices there in Albaycin and Sacromonte. The flamenco show at Jardines de Zoraya as suggested by Gabriela was a perfect decision as we had both the well known show and good food especially for us Muslim travellers. *Judhi and Hubby”
