Fantastic experience with the sumptuous palace. Really bad and messy way to gather various groups before guided tour. You obviously gather the groups anywhere in the large area instead of using the area which is marked with "Meeting point" In addition, you write in the order that you meet at an orange umbrella with Get Your Guide written on it. We never found an unfolded umbrella.

We, a family of 4 with 2 girls of 13 and 10, visited the Alhambra in early January on a slightly wet and very cold day. Despite the weather it was a truly memorable experience. The monument lived up to all the reviews we had read, beautiful gardens of Generalife and stunning Nasrid Palaces and almost no other visitors at that time! My only complaint was the price I paid. I booked through Get Your Guide and paid €115 for 4 tickets with audio guide. I knew I was paying almost as much as a guided tour but with 2 young children I did not want to be tied to a 3-hour tour. When we arrived we discovered there were hardly any visitors and plenty of tickets available on the door at a cost of €14.75 for adults and free for children under 12! I understand there are admin costs but being charged almost 300% when tickets were fully available at face value left a very bad taste. I am still glad we went but hate being left with the feeling of having been ripped off.

Alhambra is really a lovely place to visit in Granada but a live guide would have been more interesting. We visited Seville and Cordoba with live guides and it was more interactive and more informative. I was not able to visit Nasrid due to schedule constraint but the other sites in Alhambra are open from 830am to 6pm.
