Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Mezquita Cathedral de Cordoba, Calle del Cardenal Herrero 1, 14003 Cordoba Spain

Enter Cordoba’s most important monument, the Mezquita (aka the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba), a symbol of the many religious changes the city has undergone over the centuries. Originally a Catholic church, it was converted into an Islamic mosque in the Middle Ages, then back into a church after the Reconquista. With its otherworldly architecture, the Mezquita is considered one of the most accomplished Moorish monuments in the world. Notice the mix of stately Roman columns, Baroque and Renaissance frescoes and Moorish tiles and arches as you stroll the interior.


Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Jewish Quarter (Juderia), Cordoba Spain

Next, head over to the old Jewish quarter (Juderia), whose streets stretch out like capillaries and emerge onto tucked-away courtyards buzzing with locals enjoying post-siesta tapas. Listen as your guide points out the distinctly Moorish flair to these medieval alleys, reminiscent of the Jews' prosperity under the Caliphate of Cordoba. Here you'll visit the Cordoba Synagogue, one of the few synagogues existing today in Spain, built in 1315 in Mudéjar style.

Before leaving Cordoba, walk down the tiny Calleja de las Flores alleyway, one of the most popular streets in the city. Look back to see the Mezquita's tower peaking between the corridor — Cordoba’s most iconic sight. Then hop back in the coach for the 1.5-hour drive back to Seville

Thoroughly enjoyed our leisurely day to Cordoba. We had a very informative guide who provided much historical, social, and culinary information.

The Cordoba Mosque Cathedral is one of the most unique sites in the world. The long history, the original mosque contains a world class cathedral in the middle. Likely done in bad taste when the cathedral was built within this beautiful building, it is now just an amazement of historical culture. The description by the guide of the contents and layering of construction wonderful.

Angel holds intimate knowledge about the cathedral that has been passed on from his father, who was also a tour guide, Excellent perspectives! Great timing and pacing of the entire tour!

The guide was excellent, BUT the way the tour was managed felt dishonest - we were asked to be ready 1.5 hours before the published time, and when we arrived at Cordoba, were told we could wait around for 1.5 hours until the start of the tour, or pay €18 each extra for an additional part of the tour. Not only had we unnecessarily been made to get up at 6.45am, but felt manipulated into paying extra or wasting time hanging around for the start of the tour. Also, the tour details said there would be a guide on the coach giving introduction to Cordoba and the history. There was no guide on the coach; he met us at the first venue. Be honest with people. Being treated dishonestly cast a negative feeling over the very good tour.
