Alhambra visit took around 3 hours, be ready for a magnificent architecture / maybe the best monument of Islamic era in Spain. There are a lot of thing to see so it is better to go with a guided tour for better understanding.

The trip was good, and we got a beautiful tour of the Alhambra. The itinerary mentions a guided tour of Albaicin, but there is not one. You get about 30-40 mins of free time to roam around a bit on your own. The guide at Alhambra (Antonio) was good, but the audio device he provided was very old and it's reception was especially bad, therefore we could hardly hear him. He definitely needs to upgrade his equipment. Additionally, we had to pay 1 euro for headphones. This could have easily been included in the cost of the trip, when you are charging about $150 already for it.
