Granada Travel Vlog

Welcome back to our Andalusia road trip.  Today we make our way towards Granada,   one of Spain's most visited tourist  cities and the heart of Andalusia but   to get there we first need to navigate our  way through the stunning Spanish Countryside. When we do arrive it's to one of the most  amazing views we've ever had from a hotel. "Look at the view oh my God we are right there  oh my gosh this is amazing holy moly oh my" If you stay until the end I'll show you how we're   able to stay in this incredible  accommodation for just $8 night Time for another day on the road. I'm joking this  is a one way road so I can't leave you behind [Music] Antiquera oh my God beautiful we  spent most of our time working here   but nevertheless stunning but today we're  heading to Granada we're going to take the   small roads like we love and hopefully  find some beautiful spots so let's go [Music] Antiquera was a surprisingly beautiful town we've  only stayed here because uh the apartment we got   for really good deal and it was big and we could  get some work done which we desperately needed to   do but surprisingly this town is stunning  like absolutely gorgeous and if you're on   a road trip I highly recommend staying in this  town because it's affordable and beautiful and   it seems like there's not really any tourists  like it's just locals which I think is why we   got such a good deal on the apartment  definitely add Antiquera to your list. So today we're making our way to Granada which  I'm very excited about because we've met quite   a few Spanish people along the way and every  single one of them has said to us that we have   to go to Granada so I'm really excited to see  this city and see like what is it about Granada   that everybody loves so much this mountain looks  so much like a face looks exactly like a man lying   down Max lying down show me your profile oh my  God that mountain is you I'm The Rock [Music]   oh my God we found some donkeys they're so  cute I wish we had a carrot or something   to give them and there sheep there's goats and  there's sheep and there's donkeys Country Road   guys so beautiful here so we've been trying  to take the Country Roads instead of taking   the main High highways even though it is taking  us a lot longer we have the time it's just nice   like they're like narrow winding roads through  Countryside you don't get to see donkeys on the highway hello hi oh aren't you pretty hello  all right you guys ready we'll take a selfie right uh okay thank you for being my  friend I would love to have a farm one   day just to like not like a working farm  but just like have some donkeys maybe   some goats and like some chickens  to give us some eggs I don't know   maybe we even have a cow that you milk  and we make our own milk I don't know [Music] you [Music] [Music] the drive to Granada has been absolutely  stunning actually the entire road trip in   Spain has been stunning there's never  been a moment where we've been sick of   the views they're always amazing and I  think the fact that we're not going on   the highway is very much helping  with that but gosh it's just so beautiful oh no no you can't but maybe I can  where's our home left here well it says it's [Music] right okay we made it to Granada and  we found somewh to park the car because it's   very expensive parking in the city it was around  the €18 per day we've parked 2 km out of the city   for 8 a day so huge saving which is awesome it  just means now we have to walk 2 km in 28° heat   to get to our hotel but it's okay because once  we're there we're staying right in the center   of Granada and hopefully our hotel will be  incredible that's a little special surprise   that Max doesn't know about excited so we're  just going to go check in and then it's time   to find some lunch I still don't know where we're  going still making our way there I'm very curious now hello are you looking for the  I see time to see what this is all   about location wise 10 out of 10  10 out of 10 10 out of 10 so let's   see where the rest of the money's gone  pricewise also 10 out of 10 we got a good deal should I close my eyes oh  my God so cool look at the view   oh my God we are right there oh my gosh  this is amazing holy moly oh my god wow look at that oh nice oh my god I've never had a view like  this this has to be one of the best views in all   Granada like oh my God oh my God that is insane  Jaclyn that is seriously insane same wow wow wow wow now we are hungry now so food time  the craziest thing is we're only paying   $850 Australian dollar per night  for that hotel I'll show you share   with you how we were able to do that  a little later on first things first   we're starving we need some [Music]  lunch so cute oh my God I could live here graas right we found a restaurant they  do a menu of the day for €1 15 which is not   too bad s r say a cheap deal for our parking  and for our apartment we're more than happy to   spend €1 15 on lunch we might even get a glass  of wine I'm getting around wow relax everybody Salud so it turns out our 15 menu actually  includes a glass of wine or a beer which was   very surprising but very delightful in Europe all  the time they just bring this giant board and sit   it next to your table and I just love it it's  so good oh my God it looks incredible there've   been very much road trip Vibes like making  sandwiches getting stuff from the groceries we   really haven't eaten out so this is why this  is so exciting there so much herbs on these tomatoes so good wow gracias [Music]   so after our quick lunch we ended up  walking around exploring a little bit   and just enjoying the beautiful city  cuz it's really gorgeous stunning the   architecture in this city amazing like we  just walked up to that building look at   this wow it's a bank okay it's bank but  it's also really really hot yeah there's   a sign there that says 34 and it's only  late May yeah summer time here must be crazy we should come have lunch here one day  it's so nice so we have all day tomorrow to   explore so for now we're taking a chill we're  just wandering around getting the vibe of the   city Vibes are good love it we're going to go  grab some snacks and some wine because that   beautiful apartment and that beautiful you he's  appreciating so we're going to go appreciate it two hours later but look  at this just set up AO look at that I don't think there's anywhere you  could Top This view this is our bedroom   right there Prett nice up: CL we did come  home to get cozy cuz it was very hot and   sweaty out out there so I said earlier I would  explain why we're only paying $8.50 per night   for this incredible room with this amazing  view well we actually have this American   Express Platinum travel credit card now this  travel credit card is kind of expensive it's   actually $1,450 per ANM for your card fee  which seems Bonkers why would you ever pay   that much but you do get a lot of benefits  for example a $450 travel credit that you   can redeem for hotel stays like this which is  exactly what we did so this hotel was actually $467 per night so that's why we're paying just $17  for two nights if you watched one of our previous   road trip Vlogs in Mara you would have actually  seen us have a really fancy and delicious lunch   out as well and that lunch was totally free thanks  to this credit card every time we spend we also   get points which we can then redeem for flights  so when you actually break down the cost you're   getting so much value that the cost is kind of  written off with everything else but I highly   recommend only getting a credit card if you can be  responsible with money and you can confidently pay   your bills on time to make sure you would never  charged any interest if you're wanting to sign   up for this one and this will be for our Aussie  friends only check out the link below you will   get 200,000 bonus points when you sign up by by  using that link in the description so definitely   check it out we'll also get 40,000 points as well  if you do sign up with that link so it really will   help us travel for longer we appreciate it if  you use our link and we're going to enjoy Sunset   we're going to love Sunset do you understand that  people right down there are spending I much and   it's definitely worth it to know yes we we spent a  lot to be here but we have this separ Ro we got a   local supermarket and this insane view  definitely worth it what he's trying   to say is to know that we're getting  all of this for $850 a night epic epic
