LEGENDS OF THE ALHAMBRA: ENGLISH TOUR

Legends of the Alhambra: Guided tour in english

120min · English tour.

This tour is an addition to the regular tour to the Alhambra enclosure and it was conceived to give travellers the opportunity to walk peacefully through this magical environment. We will talk about legends, historical characters and, above all, about the meaning of many spaces inside the Alhambra. Máx 10 people per group.


In Plaza de Santa Ana next to the Fuente del Toro, in front of Plaza Nueva.
Groups of 10 people per guide. Super small group.

The Alhambra walls were always a frontier with the rest of the city of Granada. As if the mere fact of going through the Arco de las Granadas (Gate of the Pomegranates) will take you into an idyllic and dream place. This is how the Romantics presented the Alhambra to us and this is how we would like you to experience it. A story written on stone and surrounded by a magical forest where fables and legends grow together with real life in one of the most enigmatic places in the world.

This activity doesn’t include the visit to the interiors of the Nasrid Palaces, Alcazaba and Generalife

Our tour will mostly happen outdoors, but we will also visit the Palace of Charles V and the first grave of Isabella the Catholic. We will also admire the Puerta de la Justicia (Gate of Justice), Puerta del Vino (Gate of Wine), Cuesta de los Chinos and the Alhambra forest.

  1. The Sunset Tour was a real highlight of our time in Granada. With very few people in the Alhambra, it was easy to walk around and hear from the guide. some of the views of different parts of the complex and back across the city were simply stunning

    1. Thank you very much for your review and rating. I’m so glad to hear that the Sunset Tour was one of the highlights of your stay in Granada. Enjoying the Alhambra in that peaceful evening light is truly special, and I’m glad we were able to share that moment. The views at sunset take your breath away, don’t they? I wish you all the best on your trip. Best regards from Balea!

  2. Maribel is an amazing knowledgeable and very caring guide. This is a very interesting tour. We got this tour as we can’t get ticket for the Alhambra but I think this is more interesting to us as it’s a very close and personal tour and also tells us so many interesting stories and legends that makes this whole experience priceless. As it’s a night tour it’s lesser people and the places are super beautiful for great photography. Everyone here in Granada should try this tour.

    1. We’re glad you enjoyed your visit. It’s important to us that travelers have a wonderful experience, which is why our tours are small groups so you can go at your own pace, have time to capture the places you visit, and learn about their history at your leisure.
