Emilio was without the best tour guide I've had in over three weeks and made this tour well worth it. at first, I was dismayed that I paid 3x the entrance fee, but I would not have appreciated this monument a fraction as much as I would have if not for a guide that delivered such interesting information in a concise and memorable manner. Excellent job to kick off my stay in Cordoba so perfectly! A guide goes a long way in this site, so highly recommend this one.

Full description

Discover the fort-cum-palace of the Catholic kings on a guided tour of Cordoba’s Alcazar.

Built on the remains of Moorish palace, the Alcazar has been witness to dozens of historical events of great importance. Follow in the footsteps of Christopher Columbus, who met Fernando and Isabel here in 1486. Learn about its time as the headquarters of the Spanish Inquisition.

Stroll through remarkable rooms, such as the Salón de los Mosaicos (Hall of Mosaics). See the crenellated towers, and the Patio Morisco baths with their Moorish motifs. Climb the tower for panoramic views of the gardens.

Then, take a stroll through the landscaped gardens to see features such as pools, fish ponds, fountains and orange trees.
