To get around Alhambra, renting a car would be the most convenient mode of transportation. For a 1-day itinerary as this, expect to spend around $50 for a rental car. The average travel time to get to all locations is about 20 minutes. Alternatively, accessing apps like Lyft or Uber is also affordable and recommended.
If you have more time, you can add more locations on your itinerary, such as exploring the Alhambra Farmers Market and admiring the food stalls with farm-fresh produce, or checking out the Edwards Alhambra Renaissance 14 movie theater. But if you have less time, you can remove one of the locations from this itinerary or select a different attraction instead.
