Itinerary
Visit Medina Azahara with an official tour guide and immerse yourself in the fascinating history of this palatine city, built in 936 by the first caliph of Al-Andalus Abderramán III and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The visit to Medina Azahara is divided into three parts. 1. REGISTRATION: The first step is to enter the Visitor Centre to check in. Once you have done so, you will go to the museum that houses the most significant pieces found in the excavations of the site. 2. SITE: The second step is to visit the Site, the place where the Shining City was. There we will discover what happened to it (depopulation, ruins and looting). Of the 112 hectares that were buried, only 10% has been excavated today. 3. AUDIOVISUAL: And the last step will be to enter an auditorium to watch a short film. It is a 3D recreation of what the city was like and it is great to complete the visit.

The explanations were very enjoyable. Professional, friendly guide
It was a visit very well told and narrated by our guide Azahara, including the legends, we liked it a lot.
Perfect I would recommend it to anyone The guide was phenomenal Very good, very good If I were to return, I would choose them again
The girl who went with us was phenomenal I would repeat without a doubt
Anticipate that access is difficult for people with reduced mobility because once you are there, you have to adapt to the circumstances.
We liked the experience and the guide a lot, but we were sad not to be able to visit all the rooms because some were under construction.
Everything perfect, very nice and good, thank you very much.
The guide Ángela made it very enjoyable.
I recommend it, the guide, Azahar, was wonderful
We took the guided tour, our guide, Ángela, did an exceptional job, she explained everything very well to us and it was very rewarding and we understood what Medina Azahara was. Thank you
It was a very enjoyable visit. Ángela, the guide, conveyed her knowledge and enthusiasm for Medina Azahara very well to us. Highly recommended
Very good!! Fascinating visit, very well explained by our guide!!! We felt like we were traveling through time among the paths - the hallways - the ruins of Medina Azahara!!! Must-visit place if you visit Córdoba !!! Thank you
Good experience in an incredible complex. It was my second time and I will return
A very good guide, very enjoyable visit and quality explanations
Fantastic experience. Our guide, Elena, exuded kindness and great knowledge and experience of the history of the place.
It has been a nice experience; I knew little about that history, but our guide Elena explained everything to us brilliantly. She made it enjoyable and interesting; I give her a 10.
Very interesting, well explained by the guide and very didactic story, despite the difficulty of going back to that time
Right, but the visit to the museum was done in a hurry and hurry, without seeing everything, we also did not see the video, which we did later on our own and was very good.
Muy buena la guia, ha sabido contarnos un poquito de historia con mucha pasión, trasmite entusiasmo pora que comprendamos esta etapa de nuestra historia
Raquel nos hizo una explicación perfecta. Nos gustó muchísimo la visita. Las explicaciones fueron muy claras, incluso para los niños
Es una visita obligada si vas a Córdoba y nuestra guía Paula resultó ser una auténtica comunicadora y con dominio del tema
