Itinerary
The Alhambra, located on the Sabica hill, is an Andalusian palatine city. Its name comes from the reddish colour of its walls, coming from the clay of the land itself (Al-Hamra in Arabic). It is formed by a group of palaces, gardens and fortresses where there was a citadel within the city of Granada itself, its main function was to serve as accommodation for the monarch and the court of the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada. There are also Christian settlements, such as the palace of Charles V and the church of Santa Maria, built on top of the old mosque. It is one of the most visited monuments in Spain and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1984. Enjoy the visit with an official guide.
Explore the oldest and most defensive part of the Alhambra. Tour walls, towers and passageways with spectacular views of Granada and the Sierra Nevada from the highest points of the precinct.
Step into the palatial heart of the Alhambra, famous for its courtyards, halls and decoration of plasterwork and moccarats. An essential tour to understand the splendor of the Nasrid dynasty.
Discover this striking Renaissance palace, with its iconic circular courtyard and a sharp architectural contrast to the Islamic art of the whole. A perfect space to appreciate the coexistence of styles in the Alhambra.
Stroll through the gardens and summer palace of the Sultans, a haven of tranquility full of fountains, greenery and viewpoints. An ideal stretch to enjoy the cooler and more natural side of the visit.
Visit one of the most photogenic prints of the Alhambra: the portico del Partal and its large pool reflecting the landscape. An elegant and serene corner that preserves the essence of the original palaces.

About Granada
Granada is an Andalusian city below the Sierra Nevada, home to the Alhambra palace complex, the Moorish Albaicín quarter and a famous tapas habit.
The Alhambra, a hilltop fortress and palace complex built by the Nasrid rulers in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, is one of Spain's most visited monuments, with carved plasterwork, courtyards and pools, and the Generalife gardens beside it. Granada fell in 1492, the last Muslim kingdom in Spain, and the cathedral and Royal Chapel, with the tombs of Ferdinand and Isabella, mark that turning point.
Top-ranked sights in Granada: Generalife Gardens, Alhambra (Alhambra de Granada), Palace of Charles V (Palacio de Carlos V).
