Book a transfer from Malaga to Cordoba — from the sunny Costa del Sol to one of Spain's most extraordinary cities: the former capital of the Western Islamic world, home to the breathtaking Mezquita mosque-cathedral and a perfectly preserved medieval Jewish quarter.
The 160 km journey takes 2 to 2.5 hours heading north via the A-45 through the Antequera region, climbing out of the coastal zone through olive groves and rolling Andalusian hills to the historic city on the banks of the Guadalquivir River.
Cordoba is Andalusia's most culturally layered city — once the largest and most learned city in all of Europe during the Moorish Caliphate (10th century), when Muslims, Christians, and Jews coexisted in an intellectual golden age. The Mezquita (Mosque-Cathedral) is simply one of the most awe-inspiring buildings on earth: a vast forest of 856 red-and-white striped arches creating an almost hallucinatory sense of infinite space, with a Renaissance cathedral dramatically inserted at its center. The Judería (Jewish quarter) with its narrow flower-draped lanes and the only medieval synagogue still standing in Andalusia, the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos and its magnificent gardens, the Roman Bridge over the Guadalquivir, and the Patios Festival (UNESCO Intangible Heritage) when private courtyards burst with flowers make Cordoba unforgettable.
