Our take
Córdoba is under 2 hours away by high-speed train and works very well as a day trip. The appeal here is that everything is arranged for you (trains, ticket and private guide); solo travellers or couples will pay less doing it themselves with a group tour.

Meeting point

The experience
What you'll see
The Mosque-Cathedral, with its forest of columns and two-tone arches, and the Jewish quarter: narrow lanes, flower-filled patios, the Calleja de las Flores and the synagogue. Then you have free time for lunch and a stroll before the train back.
How it works
It is a private tour just for your group: nobody else joins and you set the pace. You leave Atocha by train and the guide meets you at the Mosque in Córdoba. Tickets and entry are included; lunch is not. It lasts 9 hours and 30 minutes in total.
Cancellation policy
Non-refundable: once booked, it cannot be cancelled or changed.
