Audio Tours

Ever since we moved to Granada in 2006, we’ve enjoyed exploring Andalucía. The TrekSierraNevada website was born out of our love of hiking in the mountains, but recently we’ve also created audio tours of some of the region’s fascinating villages, towns and cities. As well as being a great way of navigating around the most picturesque streets, alleyways and viewpoints, they give an insight into Andalucía’s history and culture, including its food and drink, festivals and way of life.

We have created the tours using the innovative VoiceMap app, which uses your phone’s GPS to automatically play you audio based on your location. Ben will guide you around each location, telling you about the sights you pass on the way. There’s no fixed schedule, so you can go at your own pace, and take a break whenever you like – to have a drink in a charming square, to snap some photos or simply to take in the incredible views.

Here are some of the reviews we’ve got for our tours so far:

“What a beautiful way to see the city unfold in all its glory. So thrilled I took this tour! I was able to see so many areas of the city that I might have never found on my own. This is a must do tour! Take your time and soak in this incredible walking experience. PS. I loved the personal notes of the hosts experience in Granada. We decided to stop in his favorite area of town for Tapas, and he’s right.“

Review of our Enchanting Granada audio tour on GetYourGuide

“Being alone in the city and finding myself walking in circles this was such a great find. Like a buddy next to me saying exactly how to go and were to look. (Amazing as the little narrow streets invite to take the wrong one), but the directions were super clear. I visited an optional museum and walked streets i would not go through if i was to walk without guidance. It was raining the entire day and i was soaking wet and still enjoyed this tour so much. Great explanations and background. Loved it!”

“I loved this tour, in part because it took me to areas of Cordoba that I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. The streets are often narrow and winding, and this app was easy to follow to the various sites. It gave me a fascinating window into the complex history of this city. Highly recommended!”
