Visit Medina Azahara with expert historians and archaeologists that will take you back in time to the era of the Al-Andalus ’ greatest splendour.

Discover with expert historians and archaeologists one of the greatest jewels in Cordoba, where Abd Al-Rahman III the first Umayyad caliph ordered its construction and moved his court. It is an essential guided tour for knowing not only the Caliphate art but also the importance of Al-Andalus as an economic, social and cultural power in present-day society. In order to realize the guided tour you will have two options: a) Recruit the visit with a bus included that moves daily to the facilities, or b) You can be directly to the settlement in your own vehicle (free parking). If you choose the first option, you will have to be in the bus stop with previous reservation. It is located between the Hotel Eurostars Palace and the Red Cross Hospital. Once you have taken the bus, you can simply relax and meet the expert personal guide who is waiting for you.

Best time to visit

Córdoba is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular arts & culture slots in Córdoba sell out.
