COMPLETE VISIT TO THE ALHAMBRA WITH PALACIOS NAZARÍES
The Alhambra de Granada requires good planning well before you arrive. The entrance is linked to each traveller's details and access to the Palacios Nazaríes operates with a fixed time slot, so the important thing here is to have that part sorted from the start. On this tour you do the route with an official guide and with the entrance already managed to enter the complex without depending on ticket offices or last-minute procedures.

Accessibility
The accessibility of the Alhambra is limited. With a pushchair you cannot do the complete route and it is more practical to come with a baby carrier or sling. With a wheelchair, the Alcazaba cannot be visited and both Generalife and Palacios Nazaríes are covered in a more reduced way due to the monument's own layout.
Families and pets
It is a visit suitable for families, although if you are coming with a baby it is advisable to avoid the pushchair due to the type of route. Pets are not allowed.
Large groups
The maximum is 30 people per group, according to regulations. In groups of more than 6 people an audio system is provided. In addition, it is essential to bring original physical identification, because access control may request it at different points during the visit.
CANCELLATION AND CHANGE CONDITIONS FOR THIS VISIT
In this visit there is an important limitation from the moment the tickets are issued. As they are nominative and linked to the documentation of each participant, the booking is not refundable or reschedulable under normal conditions.
If you need to change the date, in practice it usually means processing a new booking with new tickets, because the monument does not work with flexible changes once access has been issued. That is why it is advisable to check the day of the visit carefully before confirming the details.
The Alhambra maintains activity even when the weather is not favourable. Only in specific situations, such as strong gusts of wind or other conditions affecting safety, may some specific areas of the site be closed.
YOU CAN ALSO VISIT THE ALHAMBRA WITH YOUR GROUP ONLY
This same complete visit to the Alhambra can be booked as a private tour, with an official guide just for your group. The route keeps the main parts of the complex open to the public, passing through the Generalife, the Alcazaba, the Nasrid Palaces and the surroundings of the Palace of Charles V, but organised solely for you.
Within the monument's available times, this option makes it easier to fit the visit into your day, always respecting the time slot assigned for the Nasrid Palaces and the site's access rules. The visit still lasts about 3 hours and the order may also vary depending on the time slot on the ticket.
It is an especially useful option when travelling as a family, if there is a specific need during the visit or if you prefer to do the tour without sharing the group with other participants.
