This offer combines the Alhambra with the Albaicín and Sacromonte in a single tour, three parts of Granada that showcase very different moments and spaces of the city. At the Alhambra, the route passes through places such as the Generalife, linked to gardens and former orchards, the Alcazaba, which concentrates the defensive side of the complex, the Nasrid Palaces and the Palace of Charles V, added to the monument at a later stage.
The experience then continues through the Albaicín and Sacromonte, passing through areas such as the Carrera del Darro, the surroundings of Plaza Nueva and Santa Ana, the climb up to the San Nicolás Viewpoint and the entrance into Sacromonte via the Vereda de Enmedio, alongside the cave houses, viewpoints and the surroundings of the Paseo de los Tristes. Between both parts, the tour totals around 5 hours and lets you cover the monument and two of Granada's most iconic historic neighborhoods in a single activity.
This experience is organized in two parts. The first covers the Alhambra and the second is the route through the Albaicín and Sacromonte, so in a single activity you go from the monumental complex to two of Granada's most iconic historic neighborhoods. Between both visits, the tour totals around 5 hours.
The visit to the Alhambra follows the assigned time slot for entering the Nasrid Palaces, so the order may vary. From that point of access, the route covers the main areas of the monument open to the public, including the Generalife, linked to gardens, water and former orchards, the Alcazaba, which concentrates the defensive side, the Nasrid Palaces and the Palace of Charles V, added to the complex at a later stage.
After the Alhambra, the route continues through the city, starting at Plaza de Santa Ana. From there, it moves along the Carrera del Darro, one of Granada's most recognizable stretches, alongside the river and at the foot of the Alhambra hill. In this first section you'll find places such as El Bañuelo, the Maristán and other spots linked to the urban history of this area.
The climb up to the Albaicín continues through streets and spaces of the neighborhood, passing places such as the Church of San Juan de los Reyes, the Aljibe del Trillo and the Casa de Aben Humeya. This route leads up to the San Nicolás Viewpoint, one of the landmarks of this part of Granada and one of the tour's stops.
From there, the visit heads towards Sacromonte via the Vereda de Enmedio, entering the area most closely linked to the cave houses and the neighborhood's own identity. This stretch passes the surroundings of the Cuevas Museum, the Fuente de la Amapola, the Mario Maya Viewpoint, the caves turned into flamenco venues, and the statue of Chorrojumo, finishing at the surroundings of the Paseo de los Tristes.
Before booking, it's worth being clear on a few practical points of this guided tour of the Alhambra, Albaicín and Sacromonte, since it's a combined route that brings together the monumental part and the tour through Granada's historic neighborhoods in a single booking.
