Do you have only 2 or 3 days to get to know the city? Are you coming to Córdoba for a weekend getaway and don’t know what to do? Don’t worry, we’ll help you.
Apart from being a historical city, being 2.000 years old, it’s the only city in Spain that holds 4 World Heritage designations: the Mosque-Cathedral, Historical Center, the Patio Festival and Medina Azahara.
That ‘s why we recommend you to know about these monuments and festivities, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO if you have a short time in the city.
Of course, the first plan must be to know the main monument, and for that we recommend you to do with us the Mezquita-Catedral of Córdoba tour, with an approximate duration of 1,5 hours, the longest duration of all those carried out in the city. You can extend your knowledge by choosing the Mosque of Córdoba and Jewish Quarter tour, with a duration of 2,5 hours, or choose the most complete one, the Mosque of Córdoba, Jewish Quarter and Alcázar tour, that has a duration of 3,5h.
The Historic Center is Córdoba ‘s second World Heritage Site declaration. It’s one of the largest ones in Europe, and one of its highlights, it’s that in addition to its beauty and monumentality, it’s walkable, that is, you can walk it in total comfort.
To know the Historic Center we recommend the Historic Center Free Tour, where you can discover the most important parts of it. If you want to, you can also join the Córdoba at Night Free Tour, but remember that it’s only in Spanish.
The Roman Bridge and its monumental surroundings, the Triumph of San Rafael or the town walls, those are just a few of the near spots of the Mosque-Catherdal.
We’ll walk near the Alcázar of Córdoba, the Royal Stables, the san Basilio Neighborhood, and the sculpture of Maimonides, one of the most important figures to understand the history of the city, are just a few of the places that you can visit with us in the Historic Center Free Tour.
The next World Heritage Site corresponds to the Patio Festival of Córdoba. A lot of people think that you can only visit the Patios in May, because it’s during that month when during the two first weeks we celebrate the competition…but thanks to the owners and its daily work we can enjoy them the majority of the year.
We recommend you to visit them with us through the Patios de Córdoba Tour and you’ll know more about the most important and well known tradition of the city. Discover the origins of the festivity, the motives that lead them to create this competition, the traditional elements of a patio cordobés, or the aspects that makes each patio unique.
We end our recommendations with the Medina Azahara Tour, the palace city that Abderramán III will have constructed in the Xth century, the first caliph of Al-Ándalus.
Essential guided tour to know the history of Al-Ándalus. You have the option to go with us by bus or with your own car. Enjoy an unique monument in the hands of the best specialist.
We’re a group of guides and historians in love with Córdoba. We have prepared pleasant, fun and rigorous, that will make you enjoy 2000 years of history of an unique city.
