Does The Granada City Pass Save Time?

Short answer is yes but it going to same like booking the seperate tickets online before you actually step foot into Granada. I really am not fond of travelling in Europe and exploring places which I want to explore and standing in the queue for hours just to take the tickets and then again another hour in the queue to finally see the attraction.

In the Paris Pass Review I talked about the same thing because when I visited Eiffel Tower I was so happy that I booked the ticket online well before hand which saved me around 1.5 hours from the queue for just the tickets.

Tip! I tend to also book the skip the line ticket because it helps you to directly access the attraction without standing in the normal queue just for couple of bucks.

Since all the tickets which you get under the Granada City Pass are the fast track or skip the line ticket then it will for sure help you to save the time.

Does The Granada City Pass Save Money?

No it does not save money but it is also not costly at all, It saved Zero Euro but it gives you the Alhambra Audio Guide packed with the Pass which you can not buy seperately. So it is upon you to decide if you need this or not.

How Much Time Do You Need In Granada ?

The amount of time you need in Granada depends on what you want to see and do. If you’re interested in visiting the Alhambra, which is one of the most popular attractions in the city, you’ll need at least half a day to explore the complex and its various palaces, gardens, and fortifications.

In addition to the Alhambra, there are many other places to see in Granada, such as the Albayzin neighborhood, the Cathedral and Royal Chapel, and the Sacromonte Abbey. To see these sites and get a good feel for the city, you should plan to spend at least two to three days in Granada.

If you’re interested in experiencing the city’s culture and nightlife, you may want to extend your stay to four or five days to really immerse yourself in the city’s atmosphere. Keep in mind that Granada can get quite hot in the summer, so if you’re visiting during this time of year, you may want to plan your activities accordingly and take breaks during the hottest part of the day.


That was all the information around Granada City pass to help you understand if the Granada city pass is worth your money or not. For me it was and I was happy to buy that. I leave it upon you to decide what to do further.
