The Alhambra is a palace and fortress complex. Declared a World Heritage Site, it is the most visited monument in Spain. It consists of a defensive side, the Alcazaba, the Nasrid Palaces and the Generalife Gardens.

We had tried to book tickets online prior to our arrival in Granada but everything appeared sold-out until June. However, it turns out the campsite has access to a different allocation of tickets and we were able to book a visit with about 2 days notice. Beware that other campers here had booked with other tourist outfits and in some cases had paid more than twice the face value of the tickets.

Our tickets cost around 15 Euros each and the campsite charges a 5 Euro booking fee. They also source us a taxi to the Alhambra for a pre-arranged price of 10 Euros and this was more convenient than taking the 2 buses. After the visit we walked down from the Alhambra, had lunch in town and caught an early evening bus back to Camping Reina Isabel in La Zubia.
