Gardens and fortress, no palaces

About this experience

This is a resold ticket for the Alhambra's daytime gardens visit: the Alcazaba, the Generalife gardens and summer palace, and the Palace of Charles V, with an audio guide in the language you choose. It excludes the Nasrid Palaces, the rooms most people come for.

The official version of this ticket, Gardens, Generalife and Alcazaba, costs EUR 12.73 online on the official prices page. This one starts at $42. You pay the difference for the audio guide and for availability. The listing has only 3 reviews, and confirmation takes up to 48 hours. The time on the ticket is your entry time to the monument.

When does it make sense? When you have already seen the Nasrid Palaces, perhaps on a night visit, and want the gardens by day. Or when the General ticket is gone and you accept seeing the hill without the palaces. In both cases check the official ticket shop first: the gardens ticket sells out later than the General one.

• Alcazaba, Generalife and Charles V, no group
• Audio guide in your language
• 1.5 to 2.5 hours at your own pace
• Nasrid Palaces not included

Tips before you book

• Price it against the official ticket. At EUR 12.73, the official one usually costs well under half.
• Pair it with a night tour of the Nasrid Palaces to see everything over two visits.
• Each area of the Alhambra admits you once, so finish the Generalife before you leave it.
• Bring headphones for the audio guide, and water: there's little shade in the Alcazaba.
