Overview

Visiting the Alhambra is a unique opportunity that you should experience at least once in your life. Its beauty and spectacular state of conservation, less than 2 hours from the city of Malaga, make it possible for you to live this magnificent experience.

Getting to know the palatial city from the hand of an official guide can only improve in one way, doing it at sunset and also in a small group of maximum 15 people.

Gold, purple and red come together to create a magical light inside the monument that will make you feel like you are in a story from the Arabian Nights.

You will travel directly to the Alhambra in Granada where one of our guides will be waiting for you with your ticket, to join a group with which to take the guided tour.

With your guide you will enter the red fortress and get to know the entire monumental and archaeological complex that forms the palatine city of the Alhambra.

Not suitable for wheelchairs. Route not accessible.

    Paseo de los Cipreses (pass by)

    The Paseo de los Cipreses, following the Paseo de las Adelfas, is a path surrounded by cypresses that leads to the exit, built in the first third of the 20th century. On the occasion of the paving of the Paseo de los Nogales, a section of the Nasrid Acequia Real, near its entrance to the Alhambra through the water tower, has recently been discovered and made suitable for public visits.

    Torre del agua (pass by)

    Rising majestically next to the Generalife, the Water Tower stands as a silent testament to the Alhambra's ingenious water management. Unlike its defensive companions, this tower did not seek to repel enemies, but rather to embrace a vital resource: the water of the Darro River.

    Gate of the Seven Floors (pass by)

    On the walk along the outside of the Alhambra wall there are several towers and a gate: the Gate of the Seven Floors, one of the four exterior gates of the enclosure.This door gave access to the upper area of ​​the Medina of the Alhambra, an area of ​​the palace city with a fundamentally artisanal character. Built in the 14th century on a previous one, it was partially destroyed, like this entire sector of the wall, by the blowing up of Napoleonic troops in their retreat from the fortress in 1812.The door could be rebuilt in the sixties of the last century, thanks to the compilation of old engravings and photographs. The circular bastion located in front of it is the protagonist of one of Washington Irving's "Tales of the Alhambra".
