My friend and I were lucky enough to book tickets to the night time tour of the Alhambra in Granada. This tour was wonderful and our tour guide was amazing! We had had trouble getting a taxi as there were events going on in the city so we were running a little late but our tour guide rang us and we found her near the meeting point and she was so understanding and helpful! It turned out my friend and I were the only 2 people booked for this tour! A extra special surprise! Throughout the tour our guide pointed out key features of the buildings and spaces and explained the history and significance to the people of Granada. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and our guide was amazing! She also gave us some wonderful tips and suggestions to make the most of our visit to the city.

Jose was a great guide and quite well informed. The guided tour was well worth it for the interesting insights into the palaces' historical context, their various visual aspects and the messages implicit in the different design and decorative motifs. Better to have a live guide that can respond to your questions as well. One footnote for the guide: the central pond in the Court of myrtles on the way to the Hall of Ambassadors may also be considered as a subtle allusion to the story of Solomon and the Princess of Saba where the latter had to walk on (what she thought was) water to reach the King.
