A must see. - Amazing, stunning and steeped in history. Do not miss the mozquita or a trip to Granada. I went on and organised trip with a guide who was invaluable. Unless you know Spanish history I would go with a guide or you will miss so much.
Cordoba itself is a nice town with some nice architecture, plenty of shops cafes etc.

Great day in Cordoba - Great guides and great trip to the beautiful Cordoba! It takes a while to get back and forth, but the guide on the bus made the ride more interesting by sharing facts and history of the sights and places we passed and were going to. Also had a great guide in Cordoba, who added a good tip for where to have lunch. With just enough free time, we also got some shopping done before returning to the coast. Thank you!

However I wish I'd done this over two days because I ended up with information overload. The Mosque is incredible and the town itself full of narrow streets and lots of shops. Our guide Anna really knew her stuff when telling us about the history of the place.</p>

Cordoba is a lovely place full of history and culture - We had a great guide taking us round the impressive mosque which has been developed to incorporate a beautiful Catholic church/ chapels. Well worth the visit. We had a nice walk around the old town which includes the Jewish quarter. We also saw the Roman bridge over the river. Only problem was the time taken collecting / dropping off all the passengers at various locations.

Approximately 2 hrs of free time was also nice. The main complaint I have about this tour is that we spent 2 hrs picking up people in the morning, and then 2 hours dropping people off at the end of the day. Made for 8 hrs of traveling in the bus, which seemed like such a waste of time.</p>

We learned nothing about the history of the city or the sites we would visit. In fact, he never told us the name of the Mezquita, just assumed we knew or our other guide would tell us. On the ride home, he demanded to be dropped off the bus in Malaga, leaving he bus driver, who had not been there during initial pick-ups, to fend with driving the passengers to their varied locations, many of which he did not know in a language he did not speak. The driver, also Paco, was extremely professional and apologetic for the delays. We started our trip at 6:50 am and after a three hour return ride, arrived back at our hotel at 7:30 pm. A very disappointing experience due to an extremely unprofessional guide!</p>
