Conservation
Visitor pressure concentrates at a few viewpoints — stick to marked paths, limit noise in residential areas, and support local businesses to distribute tourist impact.

Bring layered clothing
High viewpoints and the bus interior can vary in temperature — a light windbreaker and scarf are useful year-round.
Charge your camera
Stops are short and photo ops plentiful; a charged phone or camera ensures you won’t miss the Alhambra at golden hour.
Wear grippy shoes
Miradors and Albaicín streets are cobbled and can be uneven; comfortable footwear reduces slips on stairs and alleys.
Book morning or late slots
Early or late departures avoid midday glare and heavier crowds at San Nicolás and Sacromonte viewpoints.
