Why go
The Alhambra, plus a hillside old town below the Sierra Nevada.
The Alhambra justifies the trip on its own and requires booking weeks ahead. The Albaicin quarter and free-tapas culture give the city more than a single-sight stop.
Signature experiences
- Alhambra with a Nasrid Palaces slot
- Albaicin sunset from San Nicolas
- Free tapas crawl
