Depart from your centrally located Seville hotel in a luxury, air-conditioned coach and relax during the journey to Granada; get acquainted with the city’s intriguing history as your guide provides interesting commentary and you arrive outside the magnificent Alhambra palace complex. Take a moment to admire the rose-tinted hue of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed monument’s exterior and gaze at the dramatic backdrop of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Head inside and embark on a guided tour of the complex and its richly ornamented chambers; hear tales of extravagant emperors in the Nasrid Palaces; note the contrasting Renaissance style of the Palace of Charles V; and then stroll amid the botanical beauty of the Generalife Gardens, verdant gardens replete with exotic flowers and distinctive water features.
Suitably impressed, exit the palace and enjoy two hours of leisurely free time in Granada. Revitalize with a typical Spanish lunch (own expense) and then return to your comfortable vehicle for the journey back to Seville.
Please note: access to the Alhambra is strictly limited to a certain number of visitors each day. For this reason advance bookings are strongly recommended.
