What is the cheapest way to visit the Alhambra Granada?

Are guided tours of the Alhambra worth it?
I think the best way to see the Alhambra is by guided tour. It may be a bit more expensive, but having a live tour guide will be worth it. We don't take that many guided tours, but I am glad we did for the Alhambra. If you want to book the tour we took, you can find it here.

What do I need to know before going to the Alhambra?

Is it better to go to Granada for 1 or 2 days?
I don't advice this and recommend spending 2 days in Granada. Granada is easily one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Don't rush this city and see the main sights in 1 day. It deserves time to wander the neighborhoods, enjoy a few lengthy meals, and take your time at the top attraction, the Alhambra Palace.
Should I go to the Nasrid Palace first or last?
Best Way To Explore Alhambra Palace If you choose to enter through the main entrance, explore the Generalife first and then the Nasrid Palaces and Alcazaba. If you enter through the Gate of Justice, then visiting the opposite way is an ideal route to take.
