Discover the Alhambra—the dramatic highlight of historic Granada—on this unforgettable tour. Several interesting sights will be visible from the coach along the 2½-hour drive to Granada, and your guide will introduce you to local traditions and history as you travel.
The city of Granada is beautiful, but nothing in the whole of Spain compares to the wealth of architectural art to be found in the city’s Muslim-Hispano complex—the 14th-century Alhambra. Walls and towers surround this breathtaking example of Muslim architecture. Inside, palaces, military buildings, a fortress, and an administrative center can be found. Explore this remarkable structure whose detailed mosaics, prism-style cupolas and stone-cast latticework offer a stunning grace and sophistication. The nearby Generalife gardens surround the summer residence of the Moorish kings. Lunch is included.
Please note: This tour does not include a visit to the city of Granada, it is a visit to the Alhambra at Granada.
