Diego was fabulous. My husband and I wanted to ride, he is inexperienced and I’ve been riding/competing horses for 30 years. I was not sure this would work! But Diego catered for us very well. He was wonderful with my husband, giving him pointers and tips whilst I galloped off on my own. It’s very difficult to find a place that has horses and guides to cater for both of us, so I can highly recommend!

The palace-fortress of the Christian Kings has tranquil gardens and fountains.
Trying to avoid the blaring heat of June in Cordoba, we opted for a nighttime tour and light show in the gardens. This was an excellent way to experience the fountains through technological music and lights! The guides take participants through various parts of the garden to fountains that erupt in geysers and steaming ribbons of water set to classical and Spanish pieces of music accompanied by a light show and even a projected movie on a spray of water over the ponds. A truly enjoyable way to experience the gardens and fountains in a way that is impossible during the day! Schedule this experience if you have time!

The Palace of Viana is a lived house until the end of 20th century by noble families but with a great popular flavor instead. One of its main attractiveness are the "patios" and the garden that make it be known as Museum of the Patios. Indoor and outdoor are perfectly integrated, giving to the palace an original harmony. Among the collections stand out paintings, tapestries, leather and ceramic tiles among others.
This was one of the highlights of our short trip to Cordoba. We were blessed with a sunny day so we got to enjoy this amazing home. Please more you can’t visit inside but the gardens are absolutely lovely. We even went in the winter and the plants were blooming and stunning.

We did a segway tour of Cordoba which included the Jewish Quarter. It's a great little maze of streets with hidden treasures around every corner. It is wonderful to see a historical area preserved

El Castillo de Almodóvar es una fortaleza de origen árabe construida en el año 740. Perteneció al Califato de Córdoba y a las Taifas de Sevilla, Carmona y Toledo. Fue conquistado por Fernando III El Santo 4 años después de conquistar Córdoba. Bajo el reinado de Pedro I El Cruel el castillo sirvió de vivienda, cárcel real y un lugar donde custodiar grandes cantidades de tesoros. En 1629, Felipe IV vende la fortaleza a D. Francisco del Corral y Guzmán. En 1902, D. Rafael Desmaissières y Farina, XII Conde de Torralva encarga la reconstrucción del castillo a su gran amigo y arquitecto D. Adolfo Fernández Casanova. Ésta finalizó en el año 1936, dando como resultado una de las joyas de Andalucía.
A great half-day out. I visited on a Sunday morning and could see the castle perched on top of a hill from some distance as I approached. The box-office staff were very friendly and gave me directions on where I could lunch after my visit. The castle was a ruin which was rebuilt by the then owner with the assistance of an architect historian. There lots to see: Banqueting halls, a dungeon, and battlements to walk along and admire the view of the surrounding countryside. There are also costumes worn by the actors from the television series, game of Thrones, which had some scenes filmed in the castle. Recommended.
