Well Worth It
The tour is well worth the time and money. If you get a chance pick Emilo as your guide (English tour). He is not only VERY knowledgeable but paces the tour for all, which important in summer heat.

Tour Options
Itinerary
Set of historical gardens from various periods and their palatial buildings, some from the Nasrid period.
They are the residences that the different sultans of the Nasrid period used for themselves and their court. There are three main areas, independent but connected to each other: Mexuar, Palacio de Comares and Palacio de los Leones.
The oldest venue and therefore the first to be built. This enclosure, in addition to protecting the sultan, contained an entire miniature city to house the royal service and the sultan's guard.
The most beautiful Spanish Renaissance palace was built in the middle of the Alhambra as a symbol of victory of the empire that defeated the last Muslim kingdom on the Iberian Peninsula.
We must not miss visiting the Palacio del Partal, from which it takes its name, and contemplate the pond next to it, and the Torre de las Damas, the only remains that have been preserved of it.

Great tour, friendly slow pace
Marta was a great guide and we enjoyed the slow paced friendly walk. We were a small group so plenty of time to chat and take pictures. It was hot but we took breaks and didnt feel rushed at all despite the crowds.

Beautiful Experience with a caring and dedicated guide
We were lucky to have Marta Soler as our guide for the tour of the Alhambra, particularly the Alcazaba, with the Generalife palace and its magnificent gardens. The visit with Marta was very enjoyable — she was always available to kindly answer every question we asked, and she gave us all the time we needed to admire the beauty of this magnificent historic site at our own pace. Thank you once again, Marta, for this unforgettable experience.

Excellent visit with an excellent guide, we thoroughly enjoyed our time touting the site.
Excellent, knowledgeable guide, amiable, attentive to needs, open to questions, very pleasant experience. However, we bought tickets in Canada, were charged in American dollars but were not informed of this fact. Annoying, costly and underhanded. Will not use your service again.
