Program details

Start the tour at the Fortress and Palace of Christian Monarchs where Ferdinand and Isabela reigned for eight years and fall head over heels in love with the blend of Roman and Visigoth ruins standing side by side with Arabic remains.



Discover Roman mosaics, Arabic baths and courtyards brimming with colourful flowers, fragrant herbs and mature trees. You’ll especially find the Mudejar style courtyard stunning with its marble floors and airy bright gardens.



Continue with a visit to the Mudejar style Synagogue built in 1315 and delve into the dense network of charming streets that weave through the Jewish quarter.



Saving the best ´till last, finish off your tour exploring the spectacular Mosque–Cathedral of Cordoba, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built over nine centuries ago, it combines a fascinating mixture of architectural styles unlike any other.



Be charmed by its ornate columns and horseshoe arches and you’ll soon find out exactly why it’s considered a top example of Muslim art in Spain. Let your senses be tantalised as the sweet aroma of oranges fill the air in the Courtyard of the Orange Trees and be swept away by the beauty of Cordoba.
