Semesterboende i Los Arenales

Marcel Proust said that the real voyage of discovery consists, not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes... And that's actually my goal with this experience: To show you the famous "Alhambra and Generalife" from another perspective. To discover its hidden message to the world. History and legend are intermingled in this jewel of the Nasrid dinasty of Al-Andalus that perfectly combines water, light, architecture and vegetation. Do you want to know the symbolism behind each of these elements? Esotericism, sufism, astrology, mythology... interesting, isn't it? The Alhambra walls and fountains are actually a book full of poetry, religion and political propaganda, where we can also read the function of its rooms in the voice of a beautiful woman speaking with a delicate voice to the visitor. Together we will experience the same overwhelming feeling of those ambassadors coming to visit the Nasrid king and its piece of paradise on earth... Thousands come to the Alhambra every year...do they all come back home knowing its secrets? Other things to note I will be in contact with you prior to the tour in order to reconfirm all the details. Start time might be earlier or later depending on access time to the Nasrid Palaces that day.

Faremo una bella passeggiata di circa 3 ore nei quartieri patrimonio Unesco della città di Granada. Passeggiando nel labirinto del quartiere arabo, vi racconterò la secolare storia di questa città. Perdendoci in bellissime e strettissime viuzze, ripercorreremo la storia di Granada partendo dalle popolazioni indigene, passando per romani, vandali e visigoti e concentrandoci sul periodo arabo. Risalendo la collina vi mostrerò delle viste mozzafiato sulla città e sull'Alhambra. Vi parlerò della Reconquista, della convivenza tra musulmani, ebrei e cristiani, dell'arrivo dei gitani e della loro straordinaria arte: il Flamenco. Sarà un percorso storico che vi permetterà di vivere luoghi bellissimi che dei normali turisti non avrebbero mai la possibilità di vedere e di apprendere e conoscere i punti salienti dell'importante storia di Granada. Converseremo insieme per rendere questa esperienza una possibilità di arricchimento reciproco. Adoro lo scambio di informazioni e di modi di vivere la vita, incontrare nuove persone che portano nei loro viaggi un grande background culturale. In questo piccolo viaggio parleremo di Granada, ma anche di noi, di quello che siamo, di quello che facciamo, delle nostre esperienze e dei nostri sogni. Sarà una grande possibilità per conoscere al meglio una bellissima città vivendo un'esperienza insolita e ricca di emozioni. Altre cose da tenere a mente Abiti e scarpe comode per camminare. Cappello o sombrero per le giornate di sole.

Enjoy the sunset over Granada from a stunning mountain peak. Group size limit of 4 is only for those who need transportation, if you can come by your car (20 min. ride from Granada), you're welcome to join (please contact me). NOTE: For single person bookings, if you're the only participant on the hike, there will be an extra charge of 25€. If you love the beauty the mountains, want to disconnect from the city and enjoy a magical walk in a stunningly beautiful area hidden away from most travelers, just join me and my gorgeous pup on an awesome hike I'd love to share with you. It is an easy & varied trail in the mid-mountain area of the Sierra Nevada National & Nature Park, surrounded by breath-taking mountain scenery with stunning views of several three-thousanders, and the entire valley of Granada, crowned by the summit of an emblematic 1.520m/ 5.000ft peak from where we will watch the sunset (if present; on a very cloudy or bad weather day we may not see the sunset). Note: this is not a fast-paced hike, but an enjoyable nature walk which is also suited for families and less "athletic" individuals who want to enjoy nature and the mountains. However, the optional ascent to the summit does require some physical effort, although well manageable for everyone. Please make sure you're on time. No refund or rescheduling request will be accepted on the day of the hike.
