Program details
Perched high atop a hill overlooking the city, the Alhambra palace complex stands in pure splendour, a truly magnificent sight to behold. Ornate and opulent all at once, enjoy exploring the exquisite and intricate architecture with beautiful archways, expansive courtyards, and floral carvings, a classic feature of many Muslim structures. Armed with the expert knowledge of your guide, tour the Alcazaba, the oldest part of the complex, which fortified the city of times long ago.
Visit the Nasrid Palaces including the Mexuar Palaces of Comares and the Patio de los Leones, considered prime examples of Moorish artistry. Check out the quarters of the harem and the Court of the Myrtles with its large pond used for cooling the buildings in the excessive summer heat. See the stunning Hall of the Ambassadors and the breathtakingly beautiful Court of the Lions and the Hall of the Abencerrajes. Walk through paradise as you visit the vibrant Generalife Gardens, full of brightly coloured flowers, ornamental plants, and spouting fountains.
A simply marvellous structure with a remarkable history and an elegance spanning generations, a tour of the magical Alhambra of Granada will leave you awed and captivated.
