DISCOVER THE SECRETS OF CORDOBA’S MEZQUITA AND JEWISH QUARTER, TASTING BEAUTIFUL WINES AND TAPAS FROM SOUTHERN SPAIN!

98€ PER PERSON

Discover the most emblematic monument in the medieval city of Cordoba and the beautiful Jewish Quarter on this exciting walking tour of the city’s historical district.

Under the guidance of two locals (a history expert and foodie guide), your group will first visit the Mezquita (Mosque-Cathedral) of Cordoba, one of the most visited monuments in Spain. The original mosque was constructed in the 8th century, becoming the second largest mosque in the world. In 1236, when Cordoba returned to Christian rule during the Reconquista, the building was converted into a Roman Catholic Church. A Renaissance cathedral nave was inserted in the 16th century. You’ll learn about Arabic culture and the many ways in which it has influenced Cordoban architecture, history and cuisine.

As you stroll through the thick forest of columns and arches, your guide will point out some of the building’s most important features: the Maqsura, the Mihrab and the chorus near the Mayor Chapel. After the historical tour your group will stop at two or three local wine bars to taste some of the region’s most well known labels with some delicious Cordoban tapas.
