Description
Visiting the Alhambra with family requires a narrative capable of capturing the attention of the youngest and transforming the walk into an unforgettable adventure. The children's audioguide The Secret of the Alarife meets this challenge by turning the tour into a cultural exploration game: a mobile application that accompanies the real visit to the monument, inviting children to observe each space through short stories, visual clues, and symbols inspired by the Nasrid heritage.
After completing the purchase, the traveler receives an unlock code via email that activates the full experience within the app, available on both Google Play Store for Android and App Store for iPhone. During the itinerary, the little explorers will discover fragments of hidden symbols in different areas of the site until they piece together the mystery of the Alarife, understanding the Alhambra as a living place built with water, geometry, gardens, and architecture. For any questions before or during the visit, the Welcome Visitor Centre team offers in-person and phone assistance.
An educational, enjoyable experience without distracting augmented reality screens, ideal for discovering the monument actively as a family.
