Overview

We offer you to get to know Granada a little more with this magnificent tour of its cármenes with a privileged guided tour.

What is a Carmen? It is a type of typical Granada dwelling with large grounds, orchards, gardens full of fruit trees and flowers, many green areas that offer shade and pools that provide freshness. They are from the Nasrid period (13th-15th centuries) and have been continuously transformed according to the taste and needs of their tenants, even beyond the Romanesque period.
On this route you will learn about an art and style that you will only find in Granada that mixes the concept of city and nature, you will get to know part of the urban furniture of the Albaicín and its Cultural Heritage. You can visit some Cármenes with us, although most are private, we have access to 3 wonderful almunias that a local and accredited guide will show you.

We believe that this guided tour is essential to better understand the city of Granada and its premises. Join up!
