Granada, Alhambra & Nasrid Palaces Guided Tour with Tickets


Alhambra Guide


Learn the rich history of the grand Alhambra complex and feel the magic of its palaces and gardens on this tour with an official guide that includes Alhambra and Nasrid Palaces tickets.


Alhambra, Granada



Discover the Alhambra, which isn't merely a fortress, palace, or a castle, but a entire miniature city built as the main seat of a royal court. Explore its complex history and listen to its stories and legends on a guided tour that includes entry to the Nasrid Palaces and the Generalife gardens.

Meet your guide and begin your tour of the Alhambra which began construction in 1240 under the rule of the first Sultan of the Nasrid dynasty, Mohammed I Alhamar. Uncover key historical dates and events and gain insight into the motivations behind them.

Find out why it was built, why in this specific manner, and the objectives its builders aspired to achieve. Visit the 3 most important parts of the Alhambra: the Alcazaba, the Nasrid Palaces, and the Generalife gardens.

Head to the defensive part of the complex, the Alcazaba where your guide helps you rebuild in your imagination the ruins in a vibrant neighborhood. Continue to the jewel of the Alhambra, the Nasrid Palaces.

Walk through the chambers where the sultans held their audiences, the courtyards where their wives and concubines wandered, and learn about the places where renowned figures of the Kingdom of Granada, the last stronghold of Islam in Europe, lived and died.

Finally, make your way to the Generalife gardens. See this earthly paradise created by the sultans of Granada for enjoyment and relaxation, far from the intrigues of the court. It's a picturesque area, perfect for taking photos and enjoying the best views of the Alhambra and the city.
