    It was an unforgettable experience. However, we didn't quite realize that the time we had booked related to access to the Nasrid Palaces. We had a bit of trouble at the access control, but were allowed in after all.

    I never imagined that the Alhambra could be so impressive. From the geometric designs to the attention to detail to the craftsmanship to the engineering, I was amazed the entire time I was there.

    Buying tickets was very easy. The site, which has other attractions, has confusing signage. The surprise was that you had to show your passport to get in. Luckily we had ours with us. Thank you.

    The place is amazing, the views are breathtaking and the architecture is interesting and amazing, taking you back in time. I absolutely recommend the experience, but be prepared, because the place is huge and you need hours to explore it all.☺️

    Despite the negative reviews found on the Web our experience was great. We had excellent tour with Miguel who spoke excellent english, he was really experienced and knew everything about Alhambra and Generalife and much more. Nicely spent 2.5 hours with interesting guidance and good sense of humor.
  • An ancient palace, fortress and citadel, the Alhambra is an eighth-century-old site that is one of the few surviving remnants of the Nasrid Dynasty, the last Islamic Kingdom in Western Europe.

    The timeless beauty of Alcazaba

    Be transported through time as you explore the Alcazaba, the fortress that is one of the oldest parts of the Alhambra. The rustic beauty of the Candle Tower and the charming garden of Adarves will amaze you. Bask in the splendor of the summer palace of the Nasrids, the Generalife Palace. Stroll through the lush greenery of the Generalife gardens, past fountains and turquoise waters and take in the incredible scenic views of your surroundings.
