Alpujarra from Granada with private transfer

A tour to see the most impressive landscapes, the pure nature of the Poqueira River Valley and get to know the towns of the Alpujarra of Granada with the advantage of doing it at your own pace, in a vehicle just for you and with a mountain guide throughout the tour.

 

 

Description

The Alpujarras of Granada is a land famous for its white towns that are hidden at the foot of Sierra Nevada. This is the place where the Arabs in their escape for the Christian conquest found shelter many years ago.

Although these lands had been colonized by Iberians and Celts, by Romans and even Visigoths, the historian Ibn Ragid declared that the region was not conquered by the Arabs due to the roughness of its territory. But much later it was the settlement of those Moors who were allowed to stay after the fall of the Nasrid Kingdom.

Once again, their constructive obsession with keeping water is evident in the streets of these towns, with grooves of water, flat roofs and the famous ‘terraos’. The wealth of Sierra Nevada and the area’s proximity to the sea were the triggers for the love of each of these cultures for these lands.

We will visit Pórtugos, Capilerilla, Lanjarón and Pampaneira. Alpujarra of Granada is divided into three: High, Low and Medium Alpujarra. Our guide will explain why and you will enter each of the areas seeing the characteristics, the beauty and you will understand why they are so popular.

Don’t stop taking pictures!

We booked a tour into the Sierra Nevada starting from Granada. Carlos our tour guide and driver prepared a very beautiful custom tour for us. He showed us amazing viewpoints, we did some hikes through the awesome scenery of the the sierra and talked about geology and history. It was super interesting and entertaining. That's would normally the end of the review...but I forgot my glasses in Carlos' car and had a super tight time window for my departure from the airport. When I realised that I was already in the taxi to the airport...I contacted Discovering Spain by Whatsapp. The website of Discovering Spain told me 'closed on the afternoon'. But a friendly team member read my message and called Carlos. Carlos whatsapped me he could be at the airport in 20min - 5min to my boarding. We met at the security (I was already screened) and I had my glasses back. Awesome reaction and awesome service by Discovering Spain and the man of the day Carlos. Thank you!

We were admittedly nervous when we booked a guided tour of Alhambra with Discovering Spain because everything was booked for our chosen date. When we called they told us that more places would open up so we went ahead and booked it. We followed up many times with them (probably too much) and they were patient with us. They confirmed our tickets and when the day came everything went smoothly. Our guide Cristina was excellent. She was soft spoken and was a pleasure to listen to her throughout the tour with interesting facts and pointed out fascinating details all through Alhambra and Nasrid Palaces. We couldn’t imagine visiting this beautiful site without such a great guide.
