Stop At: Paseo de los Tristes, Paseo del Padre Manjon 2, 18010 Granada Spain

Walking along the Paseo de los Tristes is one of the essentials when you come to the city, but why isn't it on the maps? When you arrive in Granada, if you are looking for the Paseo de los Tristes, map in hand, you can go crazy touring the city. In no street map or GPS you will find reference to this famous place in the city. It is one of the most recommended places in any travel guide and by any self-respecting Grenadian, but it does not appear anywhere.
The Paseo de los Tristes is in the Valle del Darro, between the hills of the Alhambra and the Albaicín, an idyllic place. For many, the most beautiful street in the world next to Carrera del Darro. Colors and essences, palaces, churches, convents, museums and medieval buildings surround it, making it the ideal place to sit and rest or enjoy the beauty of Granada.

Excellent, excellent, EXCELLENT guide (Antonio) and tour. This tour was a fantastic way to explore and understand Granada’s history, cultures, and districts. Antonio could not have done a better job and we highly recommend it.

Yesterday, we did a tour of the historical center of Granada. We were lead by our guide Conchi, who did a fabulous job showing us the different places and explaining their history. Conchi was the perfect guide as she has a very lifely and entertaining way and at the same time very knowledgeable... not a dull moment. At the same time she is a native from Granada and knows a lot about the local habits. If you are looking for an entertaining way to explore Granada's rich history Conchi is the perfect guide.
