This 90-minute tour navigates the walled old town, revealing how Moorish, Jewish, and Christian communities shaped the city's stone streets and plazas. You'll read the city through its buildings rather than hear a rehearsed script.

  • Renaissance palaces built by returning conquistadors
  • Jewish quarter's hidden corners and history
  • Moorish influences across architecture and layout
  • Multiple periods visible in single buildings

What to expect

Expect a walking tour through narrow cobbled streets where almost every corner reveals a different era. Your guide will pause at key buildings and plazas to explain how successive rulers left their mark. The old town is compact but hilly; you'll climb some steps and navigate tight passageways. Most of the route is accessible, though some areas have uneven surfaces typical of medieval towns.

Good to know

Comfortable walking shoes essential. The tour operates in 90 minutes, so pace is steady. Pushchairs and wheelchairs can access the route, though some side streets are narrow. Nearby public transport makes it easy to reach the starting point.
