Tour Details
Would you like to experience the main attractions of Cordoba in a personalized way? If so, we will meet at the Puerta del Puente at the scheduled time and embark on a complete private tour that includes entry to the Mosque of Cordoba and the Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos!
We will start our visit at the Mosque-Cathedral, a gem of Cordoba. Together we will delve into its history, tracing its foundational construction and adaptations made by emirs and caliphs, leading up to the final modifications during the Christian era.
Our journey begins as we cross the Courtyard of Oranges to enter the Mosque of Abd-al Rahman I and Abd-al Rahman II. Inside, we will approach the Mihrab and admire its grand golden dome. Furthermore, we will stroll through the iconic Forest of Columns. No corner of this World Heritage site will be left unexplored!
After our visit to the Mosque of Cordoba, we will wander through the historic center of the Andalusian city to discover its charming squares and narrow streets. Expect to take photos at famous spots like the Calle de las Flores, the Calle de la Hoguera, the Plaza del Zoco, the Plaza de Maimonides, and the Roman Bridge!
Our exploration will also take us through the Jewish Quarter, one of the most picturesque areas of the city, providing a glimpse into the significant cultures that thrived in Cordoba between the 10th and 15th centuries.
As our tour concludes, we will enter the Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos, a historic fortress from the 14th century that once served as the royal seat. We will explore its various rooms and the beautiful gardens, rich in color and architectural details.
After approximately 3.5 to 4 hours, we’ll conclude our tour at the exit of the Alcazar.
