Please note
Most travellers are unaware that the Gran Vía represents the turning point to modern times, when the fortunes made by the local sugar barons, following the Cuban-American War of 1898, allowed for the construction of a modern north-south axis of the city at the foot of the Albaicín, with buildings that show a great span of styles and eclecticism. A must for understanding contemporary Granada, and a delight for art and architecture aficionados.
Mondays Spanish, Tuesdays German, Wednesdays English, Thursdays French; other days or languages on request. One traveller pays the two-traveller minimum.
