Independent guide to the city of Granada's card
Granada Card: Alhambra, old town and city bus on one card
The Granada Card includes a fixed slot at the Alhambra, the main monuments of the old town, nine bus rides and one loop on the tourist train. It is sold only through the city's official sales office; travel platforms no longer carry it.
What the card includes
- Alhambra at a fixed time
- When you buy, you choose the day and time for the Alhambra. You do not need a separate Alhambra ticket; the card is your ticket.
- Eleven monuments and museums
- Cathedral, Capilla Real, Cartuja, San Jerónimo, Abadía del Sacromonte, Parque de las Ciencias and five smaller sites. The 72-hour card also opens five buildings from the Moorish era in the Albaicín and the old town.
- Nine bus rides and the tourist train
- The rides are valid on the city buses, including the lines up to the Alhambra, the Albaicín and the Sacromonte. On top comes one full loop on the tourist train, without getting off along the way.
- On your phone or printed
- For the monuments the voucher from the confirmation email is enough. Only the bus rides have to be collected at a machine in the centre.
Four versions, one place to buy
The versions differ mainly in which part of the Alhambra you see and when. All other monuments, the bus rides and the train are the same on every card; the 72-hour card has five extra sites.

Bought from the city
The card is sold online by the official sales office working for the city and by phone on +34 858 880 990. You can buy up to 8 cards per purchase. We earn nothing from this purchase.
How buying works
- Choose the version and start date. The card is valid from the start date for the chosen period. The start date cannot be changed after purchase.
- Book your Alhambra slot. With 48h and 72h you choose the entry time for the Nasrid Palaces, with 24h the evening. This slot is binding too, and you visit all areas of the Alhambra on the same day.
- Pay and keep the voucher. After purchase you get a print-at-home voucher, which you can also show on your phone. It carries the LOC BUS code for the bus rides.
- Get going in Granada. Show the voucher at the monuments, and at the Alhambra also your ID. Collect the nine bus rides at one of the machines at Gran Vía 7 or 4 (Catedral), Acera del Darro 8 or Acera del Casino 5 (Puerta Real) by entering the LOC BUS code there.
After purchase neither changes nor cancellations are possible. If you are unsure, you can add cancellation insurance when buying. Refunds are only given if a monument or service is unavailable, and then pro rata.
Is the Granada Card worth it?
Calculated against the single prices the city itself publishes. It only adds up if you use what is included: if all you want in Granada is the Alhambra and the cathedral, single tickets are cheaper.

The Museo de Bellas Artes, Casa de los Tiros and Museo Arqueológico are free for EU citizens anyway, so they are not in the calculation. Some smaller sites charge no admission on Sundays. All prices and the date of the check are on the page Attractions.
Granada Card sold out
In high season the card and the official Alhambra tickets often sell out, because the time slots for the Nasrid Palaces are limited. What remains are tickets and guided tours from tour companies with their own allocation. They cost more than official admission and are often non-refundable or only partly refundable.

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy the Granada Card on GetYourGuide, Tiqets or Headout?
No. The travel platforms have dropped the card. It is now only available online from the city's official sales office and by phone. Offers sold elsewhere under that name are Alhambra tickets or tours, not the Granada Card.
Do I still need an Alhambra ticket with the card?
No. You choose your Alhambra slot when you buy the card, and that books your entry. At the entrance you show the voucher and your ID.
What do I do if all slots are booked?
First check whether the Jardines version or the 24-hour card with the night visit is still available for your date. Otherwise tickets and guided tours from tour companies remain, see Alhambra tickets.
