Day Trip Details

After meeting at the Pasillo de Santa Isabel in Malaga at the indicated time, hop aboard your air-conditioned bus and head to Granada, the heart of Spain's Arab heritage.

There, if the itinerary allows, you'll have some free time to explore the city at your leisure. Experience the city's Islamic influence as you pass by various examples of Arab architecture.

We'll wander through the numerous chambers and gardens for three hours, admiring the elaborately carved ceilings and arches, and the intricate details of its beautiful tiling. The Medina, the Alcazaba, the Palace of Charles V, and the Generalife Gardens are particularly magnificent.
