Good solution to be able to visit Alhambra with Nasrid Palaces. A bit expensive: good if you spend a few days in Granada and if you take advantage of many of the included entrances

I received all information regarding the ticket. I am glad that the staff, at the entrance, pointed out the time for Nasrid Palaces as I haven't paid attention to this detail.

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.

It is a good package, quite convenient to use and good value for money. Despite promise in title you do not skip queue at Alhambra, since no day tickets are sold you should leave out that designation. What is annoying is that our pass is valid for 72h but after day 1 is already in the archives and we have to open it there all the time. It is also strange that we are asked for feedback even before the end.

This picturesque city occupies a vital role in Spanish history, with a long line of famous Spanish artists, thinkers, and leaders claiming origin from here.
