What To Expect
The Alhambra
This is a site you would not want to miss because of its grandeur and historical significance. This palace has been named the most visited monument in Spain, with over two million visitors in 2014. That's even more astounding when you consider the rest of the country's sites.
Nasrid Palaces
The Nasrid Palaces, undoubtedly the most well-known component of the Alhambra, were the formal palace of the Moorish monarchs of Granada. This section alone has a number of elements. Various sultans that occupied the Alhambra throughout the Moorish period of Granada began to add various royal houses to the palaces, completing them into the iconic complex that we know today.

1.00Don’t use viator- they’ll give you bad information about the tickets and when you can’t make the time they force you to take they take no accountability.

5.00It was beautiful, the staff were very nice and helpful. We were able to get in without any problems. We were amazed with the trees, the maintenance and the organisation that maintains the Alhambra Palace and gardens.

5.00We went 3 hours 30 minutes without feeling the duration. An absolutely unforgettable visit! The Alhambra is a magical place where history, architecture and natural beauty meet. Every detail is of incredible finesse, and the view of Granada at the top. Not to be missed during a stay in Andalusia.
I would love to visit it again
