Alhambra Official Ticket Prices, Hidden Fees, and Discounts, Year 2025

There are three ways to buy tickets to the Alhambra: online, by phone or at the ticket office. The official tickets are what you should look for. The online tickets from third-party tour operators tend to be more expensive and don't always include access to the Nasrid Palaces.


Make sure that the ticket you are buying includes the Nasrid Palaces; otherwise, you won't experience the most important part of the Alhambra.

It's not always obvious whether a ticket is from a third-party operator or an official source.

For reference, the official Alhambra ticket price in 2025 is 19.09 euros for an adult. The official guided tours usually cost between 40 and 60 euros, while private tours (2-4 people) are significantly more expensive.

For guided tours also make sure that the Nasrid Palaces are included. Not Carlos V Palace but Nasrid Palaces. Entrance to the Carlos V Palace is free of charge anyway. If you are looking for a guided tour, this official tour is a safe option with excellent reviews: Alhambra Guided Tour.

You can enter the Alhambra enclosure (Alcazaba, Partal, Generalife, etc.) at any time, but at the time of purchase, you will be asked to choose a specific time to enter the Nasrid Palaces (part of the Alhambra).

Be careful, don’t arrive late! Just today, two Italian women behind us were not allowed to enter because they missed their scheduled entrance time. They didn’t even realize the time was written on their ticket.

The price of the entrance to the Alhambra, regardless of the type, has a commission of about 6% (0.42 - 1.09 euros) when purchased in advance.

For example, General Admission is increased by 1,09 euros (18+1,09=19,09 euros). The price is the same if purchased by phone or internet.

For discounted tickets you must present the supporting documentation.

It's a bit cheaper to buy at the ticket office, but don't take the risk; the tickets might be sold out. It's advisable to buy online.

If general tickets are sold out or if you prefer night visits, you can purchase a night entrance to the Nasrid Palaces or the Generalife.

Another option is the visit to the Generalife and the Alcazaba that does not include the Nasrid Palaces.

Only the Dobla de Oro General Visit (apart from the general visit) includes a day visit to the Nasrid Palaces.
