When you arrive in Granada take a
guided tour of the Moorish palace Alhambra, located in the foothills of
the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The Alhambra palace complex, a UNESCO
World Heritate Site, is one of the most beautiful examples of Islamic
architecture in the world and has become a symbol of the city of

expense). Then, you have more time to explore Granada at your own pace,
before you relax in your comfortable vehicle on the drive back to Costa del Sol.

Advance bookings are strongly recommended, as access to the Alhambra is
strictly limited to a certain number of visitors each day.
