What You Can Expect

Alcazar Reyes Cristianos Fortress, Cordoba

A highlight of your tour of Cordoba is a visit to the Catholic cathedral, converted from a mosque when the Christians conquered Cordoba in 1236. With nearly 1,000 pillars, the cathedral's original Gothic architecture is combined with Baroque and Renaissance elements. You'll see the remarkable Cardinal's Chapel and its treasures, including an ivory crucifix and important sculptures and paintings.

Next, you'll visit the old Jewish quarter, stepping back in time to the era of the Romans and Goths. You will see one of the few synagogues existing today in Spain, built in 1315, as well as many important monuments to Cordoba's most important sons, including the Roman philosopher Seneca, Arabian philosopher Averroes and the Jewish philosopher Maimonides.

5 star rating: Highly Recommended June 2013

This is definitely a worthwhile trip to take if staying in Sevilla. The trip left on time, but strangely, there was no guide for us on the bus so no commentary on the way there. However, the guide who met us in Cordoba and who gave the tour of the beautiful mosque was very engaging and very knowledgeable. We had time for a lovely lunch (your own time) then back to the bus and the trip back. It is definitely a must-do.
