What to expect

The Alhambra, a shining relic of Spain’s Moorish roots, offers visitors a fascinating glimpse of Islamic art, history and architecture. Get ready to discover the best parts of the UNESCO-sited palace and fortress on this private tour. Josef, one of our local guides, says, ‘Moorish design is everpresent despite a turbulent history – from the Nasrid Dynasty to Christian Reconquest, abandonment and restoration. You’ll see symmetrical patterns, light and shadow effects and central courtyards representing peaceful, inward-looking life.’

Kick off the tour at the Nasrid Palaces, originally built for Spanish Muslim rulers. Marvel at intricate tilework, flowing water features and Arabic-inscribed arches. ‘The Palace is like stepping into a poetry book. See the multiple uses of the Arabic words ‘happiness’ and ‘blessing’ which symbolise its philosophy and good wishes for the monarchs’, says guide Josef. At the Patio de los Leones, you’ll be able to snap photos of the iconic water fountain with its 12 white marble lions.

Next up, feel what inspired the famed American author in the Washington Irving rooms and discover the Generalife – the summer palace and gardens of the Nasrid rulers. Walk around the lush greenery before following your guide to the Alcazaba. This is the Alhambra’s oldest part and former military fortress. Climb to the highest point of the Torre de la Vela watchtower for breathtaking views of Granada and the Sierra Nevada mountains.
