Full description

Embark on a guided tour of Córdoba with skip-the-line entry to the great Mosque-Cathedral. Follow your guide through the historical Jewish Quarter and step inside the impressive Synagogue.

Meet your experienced guide outside the Mosque-Cathedral. After being provided with a headset, start your tour by listening to an introduction to the history of the mosque. Explore the courtyard of the complex, called the Patio de los Naranjos.

Soak up the atmosphere of this peaceful space with lots of greenery, and marvel at the beautiful Bell Tower. Then skip the ticket line to enter the monument without any hassle. Follow your guide as they take you around the mosque.

Admire the Prayer Hall, the Mihrab, and the famous red and white arches, and take pictures as you go around. Your guide will tell you about the different expansions of the building, and all the hidden details of the architecture.

Next, join a walking tour around the historical Jewish Quarter, a must-do when in Córdoba. Start in Calleja de la Hoguera, where your guide will discuss the Jewish heritage of the area and its importance in the city's development.

Stroll around the El Zoco artisans market, the picturesque Plaza del Cardenal Salazar, and the narrow Calleja de la luna. See the souk, the Chapel of Saint Bartholomew, and the statue of one of the most important thinkers in the world: Maimónides.

Also, head inside the Synagogue, one of the best-preserved in Spain.

This is a popular tour, being the main attraction in Cordoba. With multiple groups going through the Mosque/Synagogue, a tour guide has to be effective in a crowded environment with background noise. Our tour guide through the Mosque was quite knowledgable, but a little hard to understand. It tough to pick-up lots of information in a short time also. The tour guide through the Synagogue was better, and I was able to learn a few things. Overall a decent tour.

Great tour of the Mezquita/Cathedral of Cordoba. Josè was so knowledgable and passionate about the various caliphates that built and ruled the city and the kingdom of Al Andaluz. Josè was also expert in the architecture and construction and alteration over time of the mezquita/cathedral - facinating. Our tour of the Jewish quarter And synagogue with Raffa was also facinating and Raffa full of passion and enthusiasm for his subject. Our guides made the history and character of Cordoba come alive for us. Highest recommendation and grateful thanks to both of them.
