The passionate and professional way in which our guide, Veronica, educated and guided us during the tour was excellent and revealed her deep knowledge of the Alhambra’s surroundings and history. A magical place! We also want to commend the organization and logistics that make everything run smoothly in a space that welcomes over 8,000 people a day. We’ll definitely be back.

Granada, Andalusia: a really lovely and interesting experience. The little hop-on, hop-off train is charming, though it can be a bit of a problem to get on right away on the first stop due to the size of the vehicle. The only downside is that, unfortunately, the staff isn't very friendly.

A must! The tour was top-notch, and the Alhambra was indescribable. Recommendation: it's better to spend a bit more on the ticket and book a group tour for a maximum of 10 people. You learn so much and experience it in a completely different way. Simply wonderful.

Our guide Juan was amazing. His knowledge of the palaces, the architecture, the art, the gardens and the stories of those who lived within the castle walls was truly wonderful. He was a kind, patient and thoughtful guide, a totally wonderful human. A bilingual Granada native, he honestly made our trip to the Alhambra worth the wait. We would not have understood the significance of what we were seeing without him. Thank you Juan.

There was no line, so we didn't need the skip-the-line pass, but the price was cheaper than buying it on the official website, even though we didn't have a guide and explored on our own.

It's easy to enter the walled complex at the entrance to the Nasrid Palaces; I highly recommend entering your information into the app.
