Why we traveled here

We traveled here on a two week trip to Spain for our honeymoon. This was of the top places we wanted to visit because of its historical significance and proximity to nature.

Loved

  • Our two highlights were staying in the cave house and, of course, The Alhambra. Virtually everyone who visits Granda comes for The Alhambra and it's an absolute must-see, not only for it's rich history but also for it's immense beauty.

Next time, I’d…

  1. 1I would book our tickets for The Alhambra further in advance! We ended up getting a bit pigeonholed in terms of the tickets we purchased due to the general admission tickets being sold out. Then we didn't realize that you need to book separate tickets for the Nasrid Palace itself. If you book far enough in advance you can also snag tickets to see the palace and grounds at night which I think would be a really unique and magical experience.

Grand Granada scene with lively cultural energy.Day 1 · GranadaDay 1 · Granada

We arrived in Granada and checked in to our cave house! Cave houses, also known as cuevas, are a really unique accommodation option in Granada and we knew we had to stay in one when we were researching this area of Spain. We also loved the neighborhood of Sacromonte where the cuevas are located. Even if you don't stay here, I highly recommend taking a walk in this part of town! We spent the rest of the day wandering around Granada and going on a little "photo safari" of the Albaicín neighborhood at the center of the old town. Granada is known for its free tapas as well so we spent most of that evening hopping between tapas bars, in search of the best tapa in town. Our favorite was Bodegas de Castaneda! It had a very traditional feel and the food was delicious.

We traveled to Porto, Portugal on our four month trip through Europe. It ended up being one of our favorite cities in Europe, if not the world!
