Alhambra tickets
 
We would like to visit Alhambra as a day trip from Seville on 7th May 2014. Ticketmaster.es has already sold out online tickets for the 7th. I could take a guided tour (50 euros per person) which is much more expensive than the online tickets (about 19.5 euros along with audio guide) or even a day trip from Seville (120 euros including transportation from Seville). The other option is to try the BBVA atm machines on reaching Barcelona on 1st May but there would be no guarantee that I would get tickets. Can the guided tours also get sold out?
Which would be the best option ??

The only visits that appear available on the 7th is the guided tour at 10:00. You might want to consider going on another day if you don't want the guided tour.

How do we reach Alhambra from Seville before 10 a.m. ? The earliest train from Seville on www.alsa.es reaches after 11 a.m.

Found a solution for you. Buy a Granada Card online. They have their exclusive allocations for Alhambra, and plenty of slots left for 7th May. You have to specify the date and time of your entry to the Nazrid Palace. Booked Card can be picked up from various locations in Granada including the tourist office on the day. Basic card cost 33.50 euro, but also includes cathedral, capilla real and bus rides.
