Overview
Visiting the Alhambra with an official Arabist guide is much more than just an experience, it is a journey back in time. Our added value is that we speak Arabic, the language in which the poetry and messages adorning its walls were written. Not only do we show you the beauty of their palaces, but we give voice to words carved in stone, revealing their true meaning. Through these inscriptions, we transport you to the time of the Sultans, when the Alhambra was the heart of a kingdom where art, culture and poetry reached their fullest glory. You will live the Alhambra like never before, with the essence of Al-Andalus beating in every corner.

Nasrid PalacesThe Nasrid Palaces are the heart of the Alhambra of Granada and one of the most impressive jewels of Islamic art in the world. Built between the 13th and 15th centuries by the sultans of the Nasrid dynasty, these palaces were the official residence of the monarchs and the center of power in the Kingdom of Granada. Its exquisite architecture combines courtyards with fountains, delicate plaster filigrees, majestic arches and a rich decoration of Arabic inscriptions that still recite verses from the Koran and poems from Al-Andalus. Among its most iconic spaces are the Patio de los Lions, the Hall of Ambassadors in the Palacio de Comares and the Patio de los Arrayanes, reflecting Nasrid splendour. Every corner of the Nasrid Palaces is a testament to the cultural and artistic sophistication of medieval Granada. Visiting this ensemble is time travel and immerse yourself in the history, poetry and refinement of Al-Andalus.

The Generalife is the former playhouse of the Nasrid sultans of the Alhambra of Granada, an oasis of tranquility surrounded by lush gardens and fountains. Built in the 13th century, this space served as a rest home for monarchs, keeping them away from the bustle of the city and the center of power. Its design reflects the essence of Andalusian paradise, with landscaped courtyards, reflecting ponds and architecture that blends with nature. The Courtyard of the Ditch, with its water channel flanked by colorful flowers and cypress trees, is one of the most iconic corners, evoking the harmony and refinement of Islamic art. From its terraces and viewpoints, Generalife offers unrivalled views of the Alhambra and the city of Granada. Its serene atmosphere and the perfect integration between water, vegetation and architecture make it one of the most beautiful and evocative spaces of the Alhambra, ideal for immersing yourself in the essence of Al-Andalus.

AlcazabaImposing and eternal, the Alcazaba is the defensive heart of the Alhambra of Granada, the place from which the Nasrid sultans protected their kingdom. With its high walls and watchtowers, this fortress, the oldest in the Alhambra, dominates the city from the hill of the Sabika, offering one of the most spectacular views of Granada and its vega. Walking through its walls is about history, feeling the presence of soldiers who once patrolled its battlements and discovering the remains of the military quarter where they lived with their families. The Candle Tower, the most emblematic, continues to mark time with its bell, which still rings on designated days. From there, Granada stretches at the feet of the visitor, bathed in the golden light of the sunset. More than just a fortress, the Alcazaba is the symbol of a kingdom that fought for its legacy to the end. Between the stone and the wind, you can still see the echo of a time when Granada was the jewel of Al-Andalus.

Palace of Carlos VThe Palace of Charles V is an imposing Renaissance construction located in the Alhambra of Granada. Ordered built in 1527 by Emperor Charles V, it symbolizes the Christian presence in an enclave of great Islamic importance. Its monumental design, by the architect Pedro Machuca, stands out for its perfect harmony and its influence of Italian classicism. The palace features a square structure with a unique circular courtyard inside, an innovative feature in Renaissance architecture. Its imposing stone facade and elegant columns lend it an air of grandeur, in contrast to the delicacy of the nearby Nasrid Palaces. Today, Charles V Palace houses the Alhambra Museum and the Granada Museum of Fine Arts, where you can admire pieces of Islamic art and works from the Spanish Golden Age. Its history, architecture and surroundings make this palace a must for visitors to the Alhambra.
