Description

Explore the Alhambra in Granada on a complete guided tour, with full admission!

The Alhambra is an emblematic monument of Islamic architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On this guided tour, you'll discover the Palais Nasrides, the Alcazaba, and the Generalife, three of the most impressive places in this historic complex. You'll be accompanied by an expert guide who will explain in detail the fascinating history of the site and its monuments.

You'll start at the Alcazaba, the site's oldest fortress, once used as a strategic military point. From its ramparts, you'll enjoy spectacular views over the city of Grenada and its surroundings.

Then explore the Palais Nasrides, a masterpiece of Islamic architecture, including the Palais de Mexuar, the Comares Palace and the Lions Palace, whose decorations and mosaics illustrate the splendor of the Nasrid sultans.

The tour ends in the gardens of the Generalife, summer residence of the Muslim kings. Accompanied by your guide, you'll explore this haven of peace with its fountains, flower beds and magnificent views, while discovering the influence of Islamic art on the gardens of the region.

Skip-the-line ticket will allow you to maximize your time and access the monuments directly without wasting time in queues.

At the end of the guided tour, you'll have free time to explore further or stroll around Granada's historic center.
