Palace of Charles V: Tours & Tickets

Alhambra is a must touristic attraction but there are so much to learn and so many differnet areas to discover, it would've been really hard to look around if you did not have guide. I recommend guided tour for this attraction for sure and our guide was very well spoken and very knowledgeable with history. We had 15 people in our tour group which 9 of them were my family with little kids, and he was very patient throughout in such a hot day. This tour is long and lots of walking so please be prepared. Although hope all the tour guide is clear about the under 2y old ticket because when I was booking online, they did not add on

I went with these guys for 3 different tours whilst in Granada and each one was brilliant. The guides are super friendly and super knowledgeable. My guide for this particular tour was the lovely Jenny! She dealt with everything perfectly and we had so much time to see everything and got so much information but not in an overwhelming way. Nothing was rushed. She even followed up with me after the tour had finished later that night to recommend to me a tour company for the Sierra Nevada once she found the information out from a colleague. How's that for customer service? :D

Our tour was planned ro start at 9.00. By email 2 days before we were informed that it would be 10.00. The evening before the tour we got another mail that said: start at 9.00. By we could not get clarity. Our hotel was at 20 km distance. To be in time for 9.00 we had to leave the hotel before breakfast time. Arriving at the startingpoint we had to wait more than one hour, because the start of the tour was still at 10.00. The Alhambra is fantastic, the tour was perfect and the guide was excellent.

We booked this tour with Esther before arriving in Granada. It was well worth it. Esther was able to tell us so much about the Alhambra. It made the visit a really enjoyable experience. We were not rushed, and were able to take our time to appreciate the incredible beauty and serenity of this truly amazing place. Esther was friendly, and made us feel at ease. We thoroughly recommend using this company if you want to have a relaxing, informative and enjoyable visit to the Alhambra.

Albas guidance was nice and informative. However, too many tickets are sold every day for visitors to explore the beautiful Alhambra. That causes a rush through a crowd and there is no time nor space to enjoy the beauty of the place. I recommend to go to the Alhambra EARLY in the morning (7:00 am) and to use an audio guide instead of a guided tour. That gives at least the possibility to visit the monument in your own pace.
