For our accessible tour of La Alhambra and Granada from Málaga Shore excursion, we will pick you up at your hotel in Málaga. We will drive with a comfortable adapted minivan to Alhambra.
The Alhambra was so called because of its reddish walls (in Arabic «qa’lat al-Hamra’» means Red Castle). It is located on top of the hill al-Sabika, on the left bank of the river Darro. Besides, it is to the west of the city of Granada, and in front of the neighborhoods of the Albaicin and Alcazaba.
