ALHAMBRA GRANADA SATVAV ENTRY IN TOMTOM

Does anyone know the satnav  entry for Alhambra/ Granada?

Thanks

Mike

I looked it up on the web and this is what I found:

sabica (alhambra), s/n, granada, 18009, spain Latitude: 37.1666; Longitude: -

Hi  Irene

Thank you very much.

I have a  TomTom satnav ( I am still in the uk , but coming to spain on 13th and visiting Granada on 14th April)

Do these Uk  satnavs  work in Spain?  or  do you need to buy/upgrade etc.  to get the spanish maps?

May be it depends on the Satnav....

Best regards

Mike

It depends what maps you have already installed.  

We have a TomTom Europe One XL and it works fine in Spain, but the maps are five years old now and a lot of roads have been built since then ... So I need to fork out €45 for an update.  You can get what you need from the TomTom website.

Don't worry about finding the Alhambra once you get to Granada, it is so well signposted, you can hardly miss it!.  You will need to get your tickets in advance as it sells out quickly.

Thank you very much for the informatio.

I just about managed to get the tickets  online this morning. They were going so fast..

My problem is going back from Granada  back to Malaga/Mabella .. I always get lost on the motorway.( The circular motorway round  Granada).and end up on the coast road to Motril etc....  as they are no signs  saying  Malaga  as you leave granada..... 

May be I should follow the Madrid signs  and hope there is  a  connection a bit later to go south to Malaga

Have you had this problem before?

Best regards

Mike

 Mike, if you don't have Spain on your TomTom you can always use Google Maps and print out the map directions.  Make a note of the motorway exit numbers you want (they are marked in km).  You want the A92 towards Seville when you leave Granada, then you can head south to Malaga on the AP46.

I certainly will do that...
