Granavision (Movviendo) · Paseo de la Sabika

Two tours, one listing

Granavision sells a guided walk round the Alhambra's free outer areas and a full three-hour tour with the Nasrid Palaces under one listing. The $23 price is the outside walk; pick a "with Nasrid Palaces" option for the real visit.

Alhambra Guided Tour, Nasrid Palaces Optional

About this experience

One listing, two very different products. The Surroundings Alhambra Tour, the option behind the $23 from-price, is a 2-hour guided walk through the Alhambra woods, the Puerta de la Justicia, the Plaza de los Aljibes and the Palace of Charles V. Those areas are free to enter anyway. No ticket, no Alcazaba, no Generalife, no Nasrid Palaces.

The other options, sold by language (English, Spanish, German, Italian or French "with Nasrid Palaces", plus one with pickup), are the full 3-hour tour with tickets for the Nasrid Palaces, the Alcazaba and the Generalife. A City Pass option adds Granada's cathedral, the Royal Chapel, several museums, 9 bus trips and a tourist train ride. With 2,215 reviews at 4.3, Granavision is a large, established operator.

Some fine print. Headphones are not included: bring your own or buy them there. Groups can run in two languages at once, and French, German and Italian need 8 people to go ahead. The office is easy to miss, guests say, so use the hotel as your landmark. Every option is non-refundable.

  • $23 outer walk or full tour with the Nasrid Palaces
  • Office 100 m from the Alhambra ticket office
  • Tours in five languages
  • City Pass option with the cathedral and museums
  • Optional hotel pickup

[...] even if you don’t have a ticket for the Alhambra, you’ll still see part of it and learn a lot with the excellent guide Antonio.

The tour company went out of their way to assist me. It’s a gorgeous place and you can spend extra time there after the tour is over, making it an excellent value.

Tips before you book

  • Check the option name before you pay. "with Nasrid Palaces" means the full visit; "Surroundings" means outside only.
  • Bring earphones. Headphones are excluded, and two guests mention buying or missing them.
  • Give every traveller's full name, date of birth and passport details when you book, or the Alhambra may refuse entry.
  • Use Hotel Guadalupe as your landmark. A guest had to ask other guides for directions to the office.
