Tickets can be collected at the Alhambra either from the ticket office, presenting the reservation number and the identity card or passport for the person who made the booking, or from the ticket machines using the same credit card that you used to make the booking.
It is strongly recommended that you collect your tickets at least one hour before the entry slot you have been given for the Palacios Nazaríes and remember that if you miss your entry slot to the palaces you will be refused access.
Ticket Collection
The Ticket Collection Point lies at the western entrance of The Alhambra. This is a long uphill walk from the city centre so leave plenty of time to make sure you don't miss your time slot for the Palace Nazaries. Alternatively jump on the No. 32 bus which runs regularly from the centre and will drop you right in front of the ticket office, a far easier option.
If you are coming by car and want to avoid driving through Granada, park at the Alhambra car park which can be reached from the 'Ronda Sur', the motorway that runs along the south-side of Granada. This in turn is reached from the A-44 ring-road (circumvalación) that also links Granada with Motril to the south and Jaén to the north - take exit 132 and follow the pink signs for 'Alhambra' and this will take you there.
If you already have a ticket then enter the grounds via the Justice Gate (La Puerta de la Justicia). The Granada Card Tourist Pass also includes entrance to the Alhambra and the Palacios Nazaríes (as well as other main monuments, free bus travel and further discounts). Further information on the pass and how to buy it can be found on the Granada tourist board website.
