Spectacular visit. The guide (Dani) was perfect, telling stories and anecdotes about each room, and guiding the visitor's imagination on a trip to the past, so that the magic and history of the place completely invade you. It is very worth it, especially if it is your first time visiting the Alhambra.

It is impressive, the interiors of the Nazaries Palaces, their patios, the gardens and to complete the views over the city with the Albaicin and the Sacromonte in front. The guide who assisted us, Enrique, was excellent with extensive knowledge and perfectly understandable explanations with answers to all questions. We will keep an indelible memory of this visit to the Alhambra.
