Hi, I’m Marco - a friendly local who loves sharing the warm spirit and rich culture of Granada. What I enjoy most is wandering the city’s streets, soaking up the vibrant atmosphere and admiring the stunning Muslim art and architecture. I’m always discovering new viewpoints to watch the breathtaking sunsets. I know Granada’s center and neighborhoods like Cájar, Monachil, La Zubia, and Zaidín inside out. Whether exploring the Alhambra, the historic Albaicín, or finding great local food spots and mountain hikes, I’m excited to help you experience the true magic of this beautiful city.
I’ve lived in Granada for 21 years
I speak English, Spanish
I am a Sport trainer
I usually try to go every week to the city center and discover new places and interesting things about my city
I organized this tour for my mother and me because we didn’t have much time in Granada, so I wanted us to do a longer tour to see the city center, Albaicín and Sacromonte. This was perfect. Our tour guide, Marco, was truly fantastic. He came and met us at our hotel and was fully of energy and excitement to show us his city. He was really knowledgeable about the history, took us to important sites, but also interspersed it with beautiful viewpoints and gardens and his favorite little streets that he had discovered over the years. We felt we had seen all of Granada with someone who felt like a good friend by the end. It was exactly what my mother and I had hoped for. Thank you, Marco!!
