The Alhambra at Your Own Pace

The Heart of the Nasrid Kingdom

We’re not just going to see palaces; the Alhambra is much more than palaces—it was a complete medieval city. We’ll read the poetry inscribed on its walls, discover its way of life, and understand why this place was the last gasp of Muslim rule in AlAndalus. A leisurely tour of the Nasrid Palaces, the Alcazaba, the Medina, and the Partal and Generalife gardens.
