“I left it too late to buy entry tickets to the Alhambra from official website for a visit over busy new year period. Purchased 2 tickets from Viator. Will admit I was open minded whether 1. Order would be fulfilled given some of the reviews I had read 2. The entry time to the Nasrid Palaces would be convenient given we were travelling on the day from Nerja and the booking process made it very clear the entry time would not be known until tickets with QR code delivered. The reality was an excellent experience. Multiple emails from Viator ahead of visit. Tickets with QR code delivered from Tour Operator…”
