Full description

Get a skip-the-line entry ticket to the Alhambra, Nasrid Palace, Alcazaba, and Generalife Gardens. Hear all about the history and culture of Granada from your guide.

Meet your guide at the Alhambra to join this walking tour around Granada. First, access the Alhambra and admire the medieval architecture dating to the Moorish occupation. 

Marvel at this UNESCO World Heritage Site, which started life as a walled citadel before becoming the opulent seat of Granada's Nasrid emirs.

Continue to the Alcazaba, a fortress, one of the oldest parts of the Alhambra, and explore the stunning Vermilion Towers (Torres Bermejas). 

Immerse yourself in the Alcazaba. Make sure you take a photo a the top of the cliff, as you will capture the view of the Albaicín neighborhood.

Next up, visit the Nasrid Palaces. See the 

Moorish-style courtyards, reception halls, and royal quarters are at the heart of the Alhambra. 

Listen as your guide tells you all about the antique wooden ceilings, brightly colored tiles, and history of this beautiful mansion built for the Spanish Muslim rulers. 

Lastly, visit the Generalife Gardens, which used to be a leisure place for the kings of Granada to get away from the official affairs of the palace.

End the day on a high and relax and chill in the gardens. Admire the magnificent architecture, fascinating decorations, gardens, fountains, and courtyards.

We had a very pleasant experience in Alhambra, I recommend getting a tour guide since the place is very big and you need someone to walk you through it for the first time. Our guide Borja was very nice and shares valuable information throughout the tour.

The guide was great, he was very knowledgeable of the history and his talking was entertaining. A lot of walking though but it is definitely worth it. I would recommend a guided tour over solo as the whole point is to get to know more about how the Alhambra was built and how it evolved over the years

Wonderful and thorough visit to the Alhambra. Estefania was a great guide. She was patient and informative. The pace was relaxed and the scope of the visit was ample. We spent a bit more money than expected on this activity but it was well worth it. Just awesome. Be aware that this requires a lot of walking over 3 hours.
