Exploring the southern slopes of the Sierra Nevada on a private tour transforms the journey into a leisurely experience, free from the rigidity of mass schedules and led by a cultural host dedicated exclusively to your group. It is the ideal formula to unravel the Alpujarra region with the calm, respect, and flexibility that such a unique territory deserves.

The day begins directly at the doorstep of your accommodation, where a private premium vehicle manages door-to-door transfers. From that moment on, the itinerary molds itself to the pulse of the travelers, allowing you to extend your stay at points of greatest interest and adjust travel times with total freedom.

The route crosses the Puente de Tablate a historic border and mountain stronghold flanking the lands of Lanjarón and Órgiva. As you ascend toward the Poqueira Gorge, the surroundings turn serene, and the landscape of Moorish terraces takes center stage. In Pampaneira, the streets showcase the layout of covered passageways (tinaos) and workshops where the medieval art of the low loom survives. In Pórtugos, we pause before the striking flow of Fuente Agria, whose mineral waters stain the limestone rock.

The journey reaches Trevélez, where the pure air of the high peaks favors the natural curing of ham in traditional drying houses—the ideal setting for a private tasting of regional products. The experience culminates in the heights of Capileira, enjoying a traditional Alpujarran lunch in a select, peaceful environment before undertaking a comfortable, unhurried return journey.
