Overview

Want to explore the Alhambra without the crowds and with your own private guide? This private day trip from Nerja is just the way to do it — comfortably, smoothly, and with plenty of time to enjoy Granada too.

Your private driver will pick you up at your accommodation and take you straight to Granada. There, your local guide will meet you for a private, skip-the-line tour of the Alhambra, including the stunning Nasrid Palaces, the Generalife gardens, and the Alcazaba fortress. It’s history, beauty, and magic — all in one place.

After the tour, you’ll have about 3 hours of free time to explore the city your way. Wander through the charming Albaicín neighborhood, grab some tapas, or do a bit of shopping downtown.

At the end of the day, your driver will take you back to Nerja — relaxed, inspired, and probably already planning your next trip.
