Caminos auténticos

Welcome to "Caminos auténticos" -

discover with us the surroundings of Granada


Leaving the city of Granada there is to be found one of the most beautiful and diverse areas of Andalusia: the Arabs changed their Al-Andalus into a paradise, many of their achievements were kept by the Christian conquerors, creating a fusion of east and west.

Moorish castles, Berber architecture in the Alpujarras or Renaissance cathedrals in the cities are just some examples. Pastries made with almonds, figs and nuts remind us of the Moorish heritage, the omnipresent olive oil and the excellent wine were already produced by the Romans in this area. All this we can find tucked away between spectacular landscapes that vary from fertile valleys to semi-desert areas, always framed by the highest peaks of the Sierra Nevada.

Apart from getting to know the most important monuments and sights, you may also want to have a look at traditional handicrafts? Aside from visiting the tourist sights you may miss being in touch with nature and enjoying different landscapes? Get to know the culture of a country by experiencing the local cuisine you consider a basic element of travelling?

So come with us on one of the "caminos", whether it´s a cultural, a culinary or a natural one... you will definitely spend an authentic day in the surroundings of Granada.

The group size for every excursion is kept to a minimum and conducted in one language of your choice, be it English, German or Spanish. Benefit from our eight years of experience and enthusiasm for this region.
