4.00Overwhelmingly beautiful. The bridge, the mosque, the cathedral, the story. The Jewish quarter next door. A good driver, who also told a lot along the way. In short, highly recommended.
Spectacular Cordoba with the best driver-guide ever!

5.00The tour from Granada to Cordoba was an amazing experience from start to end. The ride in the mini van was comfortable and easy, and the whole trip was very well organized. Visiting the Mezquita Cathedral was absolutely spectacular - truly one of the most beautiful and unique places I’ve ever seen. Our driver-guide Gonzalo, was the best - friendly, fun and so passionate about sharing the beauty and culture of Spain, he made the trip just as memorable as the destination. If you’re in Granada, I highly recommend this tour - it’s the perfect mix of comfort, culture, and unforgettable sights!
Very satisfied, beautiful place!

5.00Our Driver and Guide Gonzalo was very nice and well informed. He showed us around beautiful spots and his Restaurant recommendation was spot on. The tour inside the mosque also was good, just the reception of the Audioguides made it hard to understand Maria, our guide. But the Mosque/ Cathedral made it a once in a lifetime experience!

5.00I took a day trip from Granada to Córdoba to visit the Mezquita, and it was a wonderful experience. The travel was super smooth and comfortable, and our driver Carlos was extremely helpful and dedicated to showing us around. He went out of his way to help us plan our time in Córdoba so we could make the most of it, even with a tight schedule. This trip is ideal for anyone visiting Spain who doesn’t have much time to spend a night in Córdoba and appreciate Andalusian culture, especially if you're coming from faraway places. The Mezquita is an absolute must-see, truly stunning, and worth it.

5.00Cordoba is a must. The Mosque Cathedral a marvel of architecture. The tour is unfortunately only one hour(applies to all visitors in high season), but it is still worth it. Our driver, Jose, not only drove us well and reliably, but also showed us the city, gave valuable tips for restaurants in Cordoba and Granada and even made a detour on the return trip at our request to drive us to an olive oil mill in the mountains - now we are supplied with the best olive oil. It's a nice day.
An enjoyable and easy way to see Cordoba while on a a short holiday in Granada!

5.00We really enjoyed our day in Cordoba. We were a small group, just 2 couples. The journey there was very smooth, a fast road, and comfortable transport. Gonzalo is an excellent guide, with good English, and is very knowledgeable and makes the tours fun. He showed us round some beautiful parts of the old centre, including private “patios” (courtyards in people’s homes) and the Jewish quarter, before taking us to the Mezquita where we were met by an official guide for a tour. Afterwards, we had a bit of free time for lunch and a wander, including the stunning Roman bridge and river area. Nothing is too much trouble for Gonzalo. He showed us a few restaurants for the best tapas etc. And he kindly dropped us off at the station for our fast train to Malaga , at the end of the tour. Thoroughly recommend this tour, as well as the Alpujarras day tour.
