This complete tour of Córdoba's historic centre with tickets will take you to the ancient city's most iconic sights. Visit the Jewish Quarter, the Alcazar and the Mosque-Cathedral with an expert English-speaking guide.
Tour Details
Your complete guided tour of Córdoba will begin with the undisputed jewel of the city, the Córdoba Mosque-Cathedral, the most famous monument in the city, and a sight only comparable to the famous Alhambra in Granada. On a tour of its interior, we'll discover all its secrets and you'll be left in no doubt as to why it's been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984.
The tour then continues in the narrow cobblestone streets of the Jewish Quarter, one of the city's most historic neighbourhoods, which was home to the Jewish community between the 10th and 15th centuries. Along our route, we'll enter the Souk, or municipal market.
The tour then finishes with a visit to the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, or the Castle of the Christian Monarchs. This 14th-century fortress-palace was the main place of residence of Queen Isabella I of Castile and King Ferdinand II of Aragon. As you explore its different rooms and the spectacular gardens and courtyards in which the Mudejar style can still be seen, you'll hear all about the legendary historical events that have taken place here.
Partial Closure of the Alcázar
Due to structural renovations, the interior of the Alcázar of the Christian Monarchs remains closed. Therefore, in this part of the tour, we'll only visit the Alcázar gardens, which represent 75% of the complex.
Itinerary Adjustments
Please keep in mind that due to planning purposes, the order of visits in the itinerary might change.
Important Info
- The Fernandine churches are only open from Monday to Friday, and are closed on weekends and holidays.
- The towers are normally open, but you cannot go up in groups; you can go up if you wish after finishing the visit with the guide. Please note that this is not a key point on the tour, so it's an additional charge that cannot be guaranteed.
