The summer opening hours for the Alhambra for the day tours are 8:30AM to 8PM. The night tours in the summer start at 10PM and end at 11:30PM and are available Tuesday through Saturday.
In the winter, the opening hours for the Alhambra for the day tours go from 8.30AM to 6PM, whereas the night tours go from 8PM to 9:30PMand are only available Friday and Saturday.
The Alhambra is open all year long, the only two closing days are the 25th of December and the 1st of January.
The optimal times to visit the Alhambra are early in the morning or later in the evening. Arriving right at opening time, around 8:30 AM, allows you to experience the monument before the crowds arrive and before the midday heat sets in. Alternatively, visiting in the late afternoon, after 5:00 PM, can offer a more relaxed atmosphere as the crowds thin out. Additionally, visiting during the shoulder seasons of late spring (April–June) or early autumn (September–October) provides pleasant weather and fewer tourists.
