Collection from Granada
Private collection can be arranged from hotels, apartments and accessible addresses throughout Granada.
Because some streets in the historic centre and Albaicín have restricted vehicle access, the exact meeting point may occasionally need to be arranged at the closest legally accessible location.
Please provide your exact accommodation when booking.
Travelling from Sierra Nevada?
Granada is also the main gateway to the Sierra Nevada mountains and Pradollano ski resort.
Collection directly from Sierra Nevada can also be arranged as a separate private transfer or customised itinerary.
During winter, mountain-road conditions, snow and official restrictions may affect journey times and vehicle access.
If you are travelling with skis or snowboards, please declare all sports equipment in advance.
Make the journey part of your trip
The journey from Granada to Vilamoura crosses Andalusia before reaching the eastern Algarve.
For this route, we recommend Antequera, Seville, Cacela Velha and Tavira.
These are optional sightseeing experiences rather than mandatory stops.
Antequera provides a smaller historic Andalusian experience, Seville offers one of southern Spain’s major cultural destinations, while Cacela Velha and Tavira provide an excellent introduction to the Algarve before reaching Vilamoura.
Which stops can be combined?
The best itinerary depends on how much sightseeing you would like to include.
- Antequera only for history, archaeology and traditional Andalusian atmosphere.
- Seville only for the strongest major-city cultural experience.
- Cacela Velha only for a shorter panoramic stop overlooking the Ria Formosa.
- Tavira only for a traditional eastern Algarve town.
- Antequera and Seville create an excellent Andalusian history and culture combination.
- Seville and Cacela Velha provide a balanced Spain–Portugal itinerary.
- Cacela Velha and Tavira create an excellent eastern Algarve sightseeing combination.
- Seville, Cacela Velha and Tavira create a varied journey combining monumental Andalusia with traditional Algarve destinations.
- Antequera, Seville, Cacela Velha and Tavira can all be incorporated into a customised full-day journey.
For most travellers, we recommend choosing one major sightseeing stop or two complementary destinations.
If you simply want the fastest and most comfortable journey to Vilamoura, the direct private transfer remains available without sightseeing.
