Traveler reviews
Clem Krn
★★★★★3 months agoGreat info and timeline on the history of Granada. That’s the best overview we found in the city to understand the history in context.
Lida Pet-Soede
★★★★★Edited 6 months agoWhat a special experience: the 3d interactive visual experience is wonderful but I also appreciated the positive energy that Maria Jose and Hector bring when they talk about the historic significance of this beautiful place amongst beautiful places in Granada. This was made even more significant for me as they gave me the magazine - printed at this casa - about the 25 year celebration of the world heritage status of Granada. The magazine includes some poignant and important editorials about what it means for local Granada inhabitants to welcome the many many tourists each month of each year. This really made me appreciate Spain and rhe city and its people even more!
