What makes Premium Half Day Tour of the Alhambra of Granada + tickets a unique experience ?
On this tour you will visit the Alhambra with an official guide from Granada. You will be able to delight yourself with the art and architecture of this ancient Muslim city and learn the stories of the sultans who dominated the ancient kingdom of Granada. The Alhambra is located on a hill called Al-Sabika. At first it was a military fortress but over time it became a palatial city full of water and gardens. The architects of the time made unique palaces in the world capable of withstanding the passage of time and arousing the admiration of everyone who enters their interior. The history of the Alhambra is also part of the history of Spain, since the last Nasrid sultan, Boabdil, decided to hand over his city to the Catholic Monarchs Isabel and Fernando, thus ending 781 years of Muslim rule in the Iberian Peninsula.
They are a group of palaces that form the Royal House of the sultans of the Alhambra. This is the best place to appreciate Nasrid art. Geometry and architecture merge with poetry. In addition, we will visit the most spectacular space of the monument, the famous Patio de los Leones.
This is another of the jewels of the Alhambra. The Partal palace was designed as a small astronomical observation center. Its large pool and the gardens that surround it, make this palace one of the most beautiful in the entire monumental complex.
The Generalife is an expression of paradise on earth. It was a farm for rest and recreation for the Nasrid sultans. The great poet vizier Ibn al-Yayyab describes this place as Dar al-Mamlaka al Sa’ida, The Royal House of Happiness. The farm is crossed by the famous Acequia Real. With it the orchards and aromatic plants were watered to delight the senses.
The Alcazaba, “la Qasba” is the fortress and military base of the Alhambra. It was strategically built to defend the Nasrid dynasty from any attack or Christian threat. The views that can be seen from its towers leave the visitor speechless.
The Palace of Carlos V is a Christian construction. It began to rise at the beginning of the 16th century. At this time, a new artistic style came to the Alhambra with force: the Renaissance. Never far from criticism, this palace is one of the symbols of the Reconquest and the triumph of Christianity.
