CORDOBA PRIVATE TOUR FROM MARBELLA

Nestled in Northern Andalusia, Cordoba is almost two and a half hours by car from Marbella. Despite the distance, there are so many reasons you should visit the city during your holiday in Marbella.

Once the capital of Moorish Spain for more than three centuries and the second-largest city in Europe, Cordoba offers an enormous cultural and historical legacy.

It is the first city in the world to have four UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Mosque-Cathedral -one of the world’s greatest Islamic buildings- and its historical centre, the largest in Spain.

Let your guide take you on a journey from the past to the present of Cordoba´s fascinating history.

Stroll along the narrow and charming streets of the Jewish quarter, known as the Judería, with its whitewashed houses full of flowers.

Discover the magnificent Mezquita, considered the most important monument of Western Islamic Art, with its gleaming golden mosaics and endless rows of red and white striped arches make it a visual delight.

Then, visit the Alcazar de Los Reyes Cristianos, which used to be the Catholic King´s residence in Cordoba, and the 14th-century Synagogue, which is unique in Spain.

For lunch, we suggest Restaurant El Churrasco, a traditional meson specialized in grilled meats or Casa Pepe, a century-old institution for oxtail stew with a rooftop terrace and Mosque views.
