La Alhambra de Granada

Many of our guests intend visiting the famous Alhambra palace and gardens, so we have collected together some useful information and links to help you make the most of your time.

Visitors often don’t realize the benefits of purchasing tickets in advance. The queues for those without tickets can be very long and, if you don’t have them, we advise getting there early.

If you have purchased tickets in advance, by phone or online, you can join the much shorter queue known as the ‘taquilla de reserva’ to collect your tickets and avoid the wait (and the early wake up call!).

Buying Tickets

You can choose to brave the queues and buy a ticket at the entrance but we strongly recommend an advance reservation.

Advance ticket sales may be obtained via La Caixa Bank. The bank itself imposes a small surcharge on the price of a ticket (around 1 euro at the time of writing).

When you order, you will be asked to give dates and times, so you may want to read up on the various ticket types and entry times at

 www.alhambratickets.org.

Credit card telephone reservations can be made (in English!) by phoning La Caixa Bank on one of the following numbers;

Telephone within Spain: 902 888 001
Telephone from abroad: + 34 934 923 750

Order online by going to www.alhambra-tickets.es (administered by La Caixa Bank).

Make sure you obtain and record the reservation number.

We recommend that you purchase an individual ticket for each member of your party since the group ticket does not allow the party to split up once inside.
