Explore and discover Córdoba's two main monuments with a specialized guide who is knowledgeable about the city's history. The Alcázar of the Christian Monarchs was the residence of kings from the 14th century and later became the headquarters of the Inquisition.

Next, we'll visit the Mosque-Cathedral, one of the most impressive monuments in the world, with its famous Patio de los Naranjos (Courtyard of the Orange Trees), the oratory of the ancient Umayyad mosque, and its impressive 16th-century transept.

Our guide will provide an interesting and fun tour to ensure this experience remains in your memory.
