I was amazed by the architecture, the history of the Nazrid Palaces and the beauty of the whole complex particularly the generalife. We visited the cathedral on the ticket which is truly magnificent but did not choose to use the transport although we could have and would have been very simple.

Really good booking process and the visit to the Alhambra was amazing. Definitely needed to bring the passport as there were lots of checkpoints during the visit.Jaime

The experiences in the Alhambra were very positive, especially the Nasrid Palace. After that we wanted to do everything else by bus or sightseeing bus. All the machines were faulty. There was no bus. We had to pay for everything again ourselves. No contact person available and that in 36 degree heat. Unfortunately disappointing.Giovanna

The card is a great way to visit all the monuments and not to queue, on the other hand, as far as public transport is concerned we had difficulty activating the card right away, as the information office to which it was written to turn to was closed the day we arrived. the next morning we found the office open but under renovation ( there was no indication or sign attached otherwise we would have organized) and so we had to go to another one that told us that we had to activate the transport card at one of these ATM totems ( if I remember the acronym correctly) along the streets. Let's say this resulted in some tickets being paid for despite the card. Nothing serious but the information did not seem clear to us.
Visit Granada, the Andulasian city located at the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountains, and at the confluence of four rivers. 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. Witness the harmonious confluence of the various influences over the city, such as the Moorish architecture at the Alhambra, the Christian-built Palace of Charles V, and much more. Marvel at the distinct beauty of this jewel of Andulasia with this City Card, that gives you access to the many attractions in and around the city.
Using your City Card, you can explore Granada at your own comfortable pace without missing out on any of the major attractions. The Granada Card includes entrance to the Alhambra, Generalife, and other major monuments across the city, as well as access to public transport to get you there. Experience the wide variety of what the city has to offer, with night visits to the Nasrid Palaces and a daytime visit to the Alcazaba and Generalife the following day, guided tours through the Sacromonte Abbey, and much much more. So, avoid the hassle of standing in queues for tickets, and save time and money with the Granada City Card.
