Frequently asked questions
What is the number one thing to do in Granada?
The Alhambra is the essential, must-book first stop, but a Sacromonte cave flamenco show and the Albaicín viewpoint round out the classic Granada experience. This list ranks them all by traveller reviews.
How many days do you need in Granada?
Two days covers the city highlights; three lets you add a Córdoba, Seville, or Caminito del Rey day trip. See our 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-day Granada itineraries.
What's the one thing I must book in advance?
The Alhambra's Nasrid Palaces — they have a daily cap and routinely sell out one to four weeks ahead. Reserve that slot first and plan everything else around it.
