Nacho M.
Welcome to Granada, everyone! I'm thrilled to have you here. My name is Nacho, and I'm not just your average tour guide – I'm a Granada native with a deep love for this city and its rich history. As an Official Tourist Guide of Granada, I've had the privilege of studying the intricate tapestry of Andalusian art history, focusing on the architectural marvels that spanned from the 7th to the 15th century. Granada, as the last Arabic capital of this period, holds a special place in my heart, and I'm excited to share its wonders with you. But it's not just history that I'm passionate about – I'm also fluent in Spanish, Chinese, English, Italian, and French. So, feel free to converse with me in any of these languages! As Nelson Mandela once said, 'If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.' Beyond languages and history, I'm an energetic person who loves staying active through sports like cycling, taekwondo, skiing, running, and calisthenics. Being a tour guide isn't just about sharing facts – it's about being physically and mentally prepared to handle any situation while ensuring everyone has a fantastic time. Granada isn't just a city to me; it's my home, and I'm honored to share its charm with you. As Antonio Machado beautifully put it, 'Every city has a special charm, Granada has its own and all the other cities' charm.' So, let's embark on this journey together and create unforgettable memories in this enchanting city. Thank you for choosing Granada, and let's make the most of our time here!

“OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE -- HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!”
Mercedes provided my wife and I an informative, interesting and illuminating tour of the Alhambra palace and gardens complex. Her knowledge of the history was impressive, and she new little details about life in medieval times that were very interesting. Her English is outstanding, and her international experiences come through in her perspectives and the discussions that we had with her during the tour. She also provided information that we used on our visit to Burgos later in our trip. We highly recommend her -- she goes above and beyond what we expect from tour guides. Thanks again, Mercedes!

“Excellent combined Alhambra and city tour”
Asier is an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and a nice friendly person with excellent English. He is able to answer any question you have and catered to our teens as well as the adults very well. We especially appreciated his communication and flexibility in planning our tour. We particularly recommend doing his city tour with the tour of the Alhambra, he showed us things that we would not have found or understood without a guide and it really added to our understanding of the history of Granada. Thank you so much Asier.

“Manu is fantastic ”
Manu is an excellent guide. His English is impeccable, he is extremely organized and knowledgeable about the Alhambra and Spanish history in general. He made the Alhambra come alive for us, painting pictures in our minds of how it was built and occupied centuries past. We saw Granada, Sevilla, and Cordoba on this trip and our party agrees Granada was our favorite. Since all we did in Granada was see the Alhambra with Manu, I can’t help but think he had everything to do with it.
