Full description
Join your guide at the meeting point and head to Calleja de la Hoguera, a narrow street from the Arabic era and see a historic mosque. Historians believe Cordoba once hosted over a thousand mosques in the 10th-century. From Calleja de la Hoquera you will head to the Jewish Quarter with origins from the 14th-century.  Starting in Plaza Cardenal Salazar, see the statue of Algafequi, the first doctor to operate on eyes in Europe in the 12th-century. An old hospital from the 18th-century stands there now as a university as well. Walk to Capilla Mudejar de San Bartolomé, an old arabesque style Christian chapel built by a Jewish convert. Learn about the building's hidden history from your guide who will share its secrets. Head to the souk, a craft work market with the local products typical of Cordoba. After time in the souk see a breathtaking medieval synagogue. The synagogue was built in the 14th-century and is one of the few Jewish monuments that has survived a tumultuous history.  Your tour ends at the Alcazar of the Catholic Monarchs. Learn about the history of the Catholic Monarchs and the role the Alcazar played in the city's past.

Jaime was great fun, very informative, and invited questions. He's local, so he knows it all. We went at a good pace and had a microphone that connected to the headphones he gave out at the beginning of the tour, so hearing everything was not an issue. It was a very hot day, and he ensured we were all in the shade and he included a good break at a little cafe for us to buy a drink and use the toilets, which was ideal. I would definitely recommend this tour, we learnt so much more than just walking about, and Jaime was great fun! Five stars from us ✨️
