The Alhambra is amazing. Definitely worth while getting up early to enter at 8.30am before the tour groups arrive. We spent almost four hours admiring the palaces and the extensive gardens. Warning: there are alot of steps to climb if you want to see the wonderful views. The snow on the Sierra Nevada made a spectacular backdrop. Hadn't realised the audio guide was in digital format rather than (old fashioned) headphones.

This experience is perfect for the Alhambra. Nice gardens and view. Interesting palace. There is a need however for have adequate people for the check-in to the palace (the process was very slow - only 1 person working). Better signage is also required. The security feeling was however very ggod.

We went early to miss the worst of the crowds. It was worth it to walk at peace in the Generalife and enjoy the gardens, see amazing architecture and stare in awe at the structure's.
