Saw the Generalife gardens as part of a guided tour of The Alhambra. May is probably the ideal time of year to visit, as not too hot, and everything was in bloom. Extremely well kept with some interesting features, but quite an uphill, cobbled walk from the Alhambra, so flat shoes imperative!

Beautiful architecture with fountains, gardens and great views. It's part of the Alhambra complex. Wear comfortable shoes since there's a lot of walking and it's cobblestone paths in lots of places

We could not book tickets prior to arrival as they were all half hour slots and it was difficult to judge our arrival time. When we queued and waited for tickets they stated they were sold out for the alhambra and we could only view the generalife. We thought they could have allowed us to wait for the next slot... More

My college age daughter and I both loved the gardens and taking in the beautiful views of Granada. An absolute must do if in Granada!

Amazing pools and fountains! Since it's located at the far end of the huge area, it might be tempting not to go there, but that would be a major miss. To me this was the most beautiful part of the Alhambra.

Beautiful! Take a picnic and make the most of the day here! One of my favourite days in Andalucia. Don't miss out on it!

As you go to Alhambra remember to go here also. Remember to keep your ticket with you because you need it in various check-points on the area. My friend lost it during the visit so we had to take a little trip on our way to the parking lot.

For us this was the best bit of the whole Alhambra visit. Wonderful peaceful water gardens where you can sit and stare for as long as you like (if the weather is good). Go early to avoid the crowds.

Very relaxing place. Recommend visiting afternoon as the mid day summer sun may be not good for photography.
