For centuries, Córdoba has been a crossroads of cultures, home to a multitude of peoples including Romans, Visigoths, Muslims, Jews and Christians. This is reflected in the city’s vast cultural heritage, as well as in the multitude of architectural styles found in some of its main monuments.

Throughout the tour, you’ll have the chance to visit some of Córdoba’s main tourist attractions, including the following:

• Jewish Quarter: Córdoba’s Jewish Quarter was the main area where the city’s Sephardic Jews lived between the 13th and 15th centuries, until their final expulsion in 1492. It is one of the city’s most visited areas, as it is home to monuments such as the synagogue, the Arab souk and the Mudejar chapel of San Bartolomé.

• Synagogue: Built in the Mudejar style, the synagogue in Córdoba is one of only three surviving synagogues in the whole of Spain dating from the period of Muslim rule. The other two are the Synagogue of El Tránsito and that of Santa María la Blanca, both in the city of Toledo. Built in 1315, it was the main place of worship for the Jews of that era.

• Alcázar of the Christian Kings: A castle built by Alfonso XI in 1328. It was erected on the ruins of the Umayyad Alcázar and served as the residence of the Catholic Monarchs during the War of Granada. Following victory in the war, Emir Boabdil, the last Muslim ruler on the Iberian Peninsula, was imprisoned in its cells.

• Córdoba Mosque-Cathedral: Built in the 8th century by Abd al-Rahman I, it was the second-largest mosque in the world for eight centuries, second only to the Mosque of Mecca. In the 16th century, it was also surpassed in size by the Blue Mosque in Istanbul.

Entry to the Synagogue, the Alcázar of the Christian Monarchs and the Mosque is included in the experience, so you won’t have to worry about organising anything. Just sit back and make the most of this tour, which will give you a comprehensive overview of everything this city has to offer.
