As a non native English speaker, SpanishEnglish is a littlte difficult for us. So we did understand all the information told. The guide was very knowledgeable and had passion for the subject. He also was very caring about the group. Compliments

The schedules were well respected. We were well guided. I didn't like paying for the headphones. I didn't like that the guide treated 2 groups at the same time.

The tour was beautiful and our guide was flexible and tried to avoid or wait when a spot was too crowded. Maybe it was due to the time, but I should have liked to have more explanation of the history, although she told us some nice stories.

Explore Alhambra with a guide

Gain entry to the Alhambra, a National and Artistic Monument of Spain, on this guided tour. Walk through the passages and admire the different styles of architecture that were used as the Palace expanded. Whether you choose a regular day time tour or a unique nighttime tour, get the complete picture of the complex.

Choose a skilled guide fluent in English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish, offering insights into the palace's history, complemented by clear audio headsets.

Visit other wonders of Alhambra

This ticket grants access to several other attractions within the Alhambra complex. Explore the Palace of Charles V, an architectural marvel blending Plateresque, Gothic, and Spanish styles, renowned for its unique collection of Hispano-Muslim and Nasrid artworks. Discover the Generalife, known as the Architect's Garden, one of the oldest Moorish gardens featuring cool turquoise water, flower beds, and lush greenery. Don't miss the Alcazaba, one of the oldest structures in the Alhambra, serving as both a fortress and a watchtower during the Nasrid rule.

Nasrid Palace and Medina

While many structures within the Nasrid Palaces have succumbed to time, some endure, including the Mexuar, once a prominent part of the palace, and the Court of Lions (Palacio de Los Leones), along with more private areas.

After exploring the Nasrid Palaces, accompany your guide to the Medina, a citadel featuring remnants of ovens, silos, cisterns, public baths, workshops, and residences of government officials, employees, and court servants, accessible via a challenging route.
