Cordoba is a must do city! Highly recommended and very accessible from Seville. Catherine was a fun and lovely guide the whole day. Very appreciated spending the whole day with her. Proficient in English, Spanish and French! Thank you also Miguel for driving us the whole day.

We enjoyed our day trip to Cordoba. It’s a long day with about 3 hours in a van or bus, however it’s worth it and highly recommend it. Our tour guide, Luca was very knowledgeable and friendly. He made our trip more pleasant and memorable.
