Well it's ten days away from take-off and I have decided that I will go Madrid-Cordoba (four hour tour)-Granada-Sevilla-Madrid. Over a twelve day period. But, as any traveller knows, once you arrive at the destination caution is thrown into the wind and plans are dynamic, often changing. How far ahead in advance should I book a Granada hotel and tickets for the Alhambra for around May 16? Thanks again!

I would book the hotel as soon as possible, I'm sure there will be room for you, but you're always better safe than sorry. (You can always change the reservation if you decide to go off of your schedule!) The Alhambra tickets I'd just buy when I got there. Also, if you're going to be in Granada on a Sunday, there's free entry into the Alhambra at least until 3, if not all day! Have a great trip!!
