What To Expect

The Alhambra

Private tour of the spectacular Alhambra Palace with private English-speaking official guide to give you a wonderful insight of the history and culture of this spectacular place. / / On this full day trip to Granada. We will visit the Alhambra palace and its courtyards which were built for the last Moorish Emirs in Spain, for the ruling Nasrid dynasty. After the Cristian reconquest by the Catholic Monarchs, Isabella and Ferdinand in 1492, some sections of the Alhambra palace were used by the Christian Monarchy. Their Grandson Charles V, who was the Holy Roman Emperor in 1527, ruling much of Europe, built a palace that was inserted inside the Alhambra and within the old fortifications of the Nazarid Palaces. Then afterwards for centuries, the Alhambra was allowed to fall into disrepair as well as being badly destroyed by Napoleon troops. The Alhambra was rediscovered in the19th century by European and American scholars and travellers.

The Alhambra was absolutely spectacular! Spring is the time to visit. Not too crowded and the gardens were in full bloom. Our private tour guide was excellent. She was so knowledgeable and truly was excited to share the history and all the highlights in the various areas and the palaces. We spent 3.5 hours and we thoroughly enjoyed it all! Highly recommend this tour.
Don’t miss the Alhambra!

The Alhambra was an amazing place! Absolutely a high point on our trip to Spain. Our driver met us on the pier where our cruise arrived in Almeria. He took us to our guide where we spent more than 3 hours at The Alhambra. Mirian was so knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations in Granada as well. We thoroughly enjoyed the day!
Great wxperience
