Description

The Alhambra is the most visited monument in Spain and one of the best preserved Islamic palatial complexes in the world. Built between the 13th and 15th centuries by the sultans of the Nasrid dynasty, the palatine city combines military, residential and garden architecture in an enclosure that still today impresses with its scale and the precision of its ornamentation. On this private tour we visit the three main areas of the complex with an expert guide dedicated exclusively to the group, without other travelers and without the pace constraints of large groups.


Our route through the Nasrid Palaces takes us through the Mexuar, the Palace of Comares and the Court of the Lions, the three centers of Nasrid political and residential power, with time to pause at each element without pressure. The Alcazaba, the oldest military fortress in the complex, offers from its Torre de la Vela the most complete panoramic view of Granada and the vega. The Generalife, the sultans' resting palace, closes the route with its irrigation channel gardens and Mediterranean vegetation. The order of visit to the Nasrid Palaces is determined by the entry time assigned by the Patronato de la Alhambra at the time of booking.


What you will see

  3. Generalife: Retreat palace of the Nasrid sultans with irrigation channel gardens and Mediterranean vegetation on the slope of Cerro del Sol.
  4. In-depth Nasrid interpretation: The expert guide spends time in each space without the pace limitations of large groups, adapting the commentary to the group's interests.
