Córdoba, Spain - The Perfect Day Trip From Seville | Things To Do In One Day

[@OurTravelPlace]

☀If you're also visiting Seville then our suggested Seville 3-day itinerary is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6Kxhn2iqatppNU We also now have a written guide and free map of Cordoba attractions here: ourtravelplace.co.uk/seville-to-cordoba-day-trip/ Thanks for watching!

[@SarahAndrews24]

One day in Cordoba is doable but certainly not enough. We spent 2 days in Cordoba and still felt we could stay more, what a beautiful place!

[@OurTravelPlace]

Agree, we would have liked an extra day but we only had time to do it as a day trip. Still, it was a great day! 🙂

[@jdmsubie4500]

Amazing video, the reason you are more unqiue and stand out from the other content creators is because of adding the prices of tickets, important info like water fountain heads up, and showing stuff on google maps.

[@OurTravelPlace]

Thank you, I like adding in extra practical information and maps so it's always good to hear if those details are helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂

[@brothersman524]

Great tips here I did the day trips to Cordoba, Seville, Ronda, Granada, Malaga and Marbella from Torremolinos where I was staying for 1 week. Mainly went to the Mezquita, Roman Bridge and Alcazar Gardens.

[@OurTravelPlace]

Wow, sounds like you had a busy week! 😊 We would like to return to see more of the region. Where did you enjoy visiting the most?

[@brothersman524]

@@OurTravelPlace All of them but mainly Granada, Seville and Cordoba

[@OurTravelPlace]

Granada is top of our list for next time, the Alhambra looks amazing

[@zoeevans6410]

Recently went to Seville, Ronda, Granada and Cordoba. Cordoba was my favourite - it was the least touristy IMO.

[@philbow49]

Going to Cordoba at Easter so thank you for this. At last, a sensible guide devoid of all the artistic fripperies found on the “official” tour videos! Excellent!

[@OurTravelPlace]

Thank you, I'm glad you liked our style of video! Have a great time in Cordoba 🙂

Wow, thank you!

[@robd2467]

Thank you. Also, I appreciate the time you have taken with the ‘commentary’ and high quality video editing. Really helpful in planning an upcoming trip in September - 2 days now👏👏👏😀

[@liapops6408]

Hi , i don’t know if you read this just wanna say your videos are amazing specially the uk one which i love a lot , i wish you upload more of uk countryside because its lovely and if possible please share more foods on your uk videos i myself really love to see what people in uk countryside eats like snack or cake or foods and stuff. If you do that it means a lot but still love your videos a lot. Thank you sooooo much 🥰🙌🏻🇬🇧🥳

[@OurTravelPlace]

Thanks so much for your lovely comment 😊 I do have other ideas for countryside videos I would like to make, but it will probably be a long time until I get around to making them as I have a number of videos outside the UK to edit first (and I don't upload very often). I will bear in mind your food comment though! Hopefully you will still enjoy the other videos in the meantime 😊 Thanks for watching!

[@Daveiation]

This is the best travel channel I have come across on you tube, really clear and complete info. I really hope your channel will be watched by a lot of people because you really deserve this! I will definitely use your tips and advice for my vacation to Codoba and Seville next week. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Thanks so much for your lovely comment, I appreciate it 😊 I'm glad to hear you found the videos useful. Have an amazing trip to Cordoba and Seville (I'm sure you will)!

[@Explorcation]

You two did so much in a day! But you are right, having two days would be better. There were so many great options in Cordoba! It is nice though that you pointed out other activities or attractions even if you didnt make it on your visit. I would really want to visit the Mosque-Cathedral, the history is so interesting...and it looked beautiful inside.

[@OurTravelPlace]

Yeah the mosque-cathedral was amazing. Photos and video really can't do justice to what it feels like to walk in there. Amazing building. Thanks for watching! 🙂

[@Explorcation]

@@OurTravelPlace i do believe that, what you did share really did look amazing :)

[@dnhg9730]

Que ciudad lindisima!

[@123benny4]

I ended up going to Cordoba on a Monday and the Alcazar and the Casa Viani were closed. I'll have to go back again next time in Spain. You should try the famous pastry. I found it in a café on the main street that's along the park. I wasn't all that impressed with the flower alley. Walk up and down the Roman bridge and that's it. The Mezquita though is worth the trip: beautiful.

[@OurTravelPlace]

Ahh shame you visited when they were closed, but as long as you visited the Mezquita then like you say, worth the trip! The Mezquita is the highlight, I think even just visiting the Mezquita and having a bit of a wander around the streets would make for a great day 🙂 Good tip on the pastry!

[@jaceksmolinski4697]

Very nice video with a lot of useful information

[@OurTravelPlace]

Thank you!

[@thegallivanthropologists]

Our second favorite city and the only city in the World with 4 UNESCO sites. I agree with the Mezquita suggestion, as well. Cannot wait to be back here soon.

Really great vlog as always. I forget how much your upbeat voice adds to your videos. It looks like you had an amazing time in one of our favorite places. Congrats on the adventure. Cannot wait to see Cordoba again on the Andalusia portion of our RTW UNESCO tour. Thanks for all the great work and for the support on our channel- Turtle and Bear

Hi. great video with plenty of useful tips. The weather looks great. I was wondering which month you were there?

One thing this video failed to mention is the ruins of the huge Medina Azahara complex outside the city which was the capitol of the caliphate of cordoba and built by Abd al-Rahman III in the 10th century CE its free to enter for EU citizens and is also a world heritage site

[@marciajimenez7347]

Mosque Cathedral, how much in advance should we buy tickets? Great informational video. Glad I found your channel.

[@OurTravelPlace]

The bell tower we bought a few days in advance. The mosque cathedral we bought on my phone as we were queuing to get in 😄 There is also a kiosk there where you can buy tickets. If you know when you want to go you can buy in advance whenever is convenient but I don't think it's essential. The bell tower is small groups though so we booked that one ahead of time. Thanks for watching 😄

[@eneszlatar]

Thanks! A really nice video to prepare ourselves for a visit to Cordoba for one day.

[@3acmehta]

which would be the ideal months to hit Seville and cordoba so that there is no much heat and weather is pleasant

[@OurTravelPlace]

Hello! In case you missed it I just answered your question about weather on the Seville video 😊

Great travel guide!! Thinking about visiting myself in April/May and didn't know about that festival so that's a nice surprise! I have already been to Seville, but is there anywhere else nearby you'd recommend visiting as well as Cordoba? Thanks! 😊

[@OurTravelPlace]

Oo hopefully you will be able to time your visit with the festival! We only went to Seville and Cordoba on our visit but plan to hopefully return this year, although it wont be before April/May. If you do go I'll check out your videos! 🙂

Which direction is the niche inside the Cordoba Mosque?

[@AfafAfaf-z8e]

Did you walk to all these sights Are they close to each other ?

[@OurTravelPlace]

Yes we walked everywhere. It's all pretty close, e.g. Mezquita to the Alcazaba is less than 10 minutes.

[@zubairuddinsyed6552]

Hi, which cordoba tourist destinations do you reckon could be better with a guided tour or with an audio guide option (can be bit cheaper than a guided tour)?

[@OurTravelPlace]

If I were to pick one I would probably go for Mezquita, although I did read some reviews saying the audio guide was a bit confusing so would check out price differences vs guided tour. I would like to have done the Soul of Cordoba visit if we had been there late enough!

[@alexfernandohuenten1374]

Genial

[@saramagharei]

Hi, Can I know your opinion abut three cities or towns in Andalucia, that are worth visiting? Thanks in advance

[@OurTravelPlace]

So far we have visited Seville, Granada, Cordoba, Malaga and Ronda, and all have things about them that make them worth visiting, so I think it depends on which appeal most to you. We have videos on Seville and Granada (Malaga coming later) if they help 🙂

[@khaledhadeel]

Was it fairly easy to get out of the train station and around the city without an uber or taxi?

[@OurTravelPlace]

Yes, easy! We walked from the station through the gardens to mezquita, then got around the city by foot.

El señorío cordobés

[@phoenixgraze8318]

What a beautiful mosque of Cordoba and its beauty eclipsed by Cathedral which could easy have been built somewhere else as Charles V once said "they could have build cathedral somewhere else and let the unique mosque wonder of world stay as it is", but hardliners forced him to build cathedral inside the mosque.

[@ilresole603]

The same is true of the Hagia Sophia church in Istanbul.

[@sshah3324]

How much is the train I want to travel to cordoba and Granada and what would be the best city to stay for easy travel Malaga or the city you stayed Seville

[@OurTravelPlace]

The cost of the train varies depending on time of day, and also the type of train. The slower, regional trains are cheaper. Prices can vary from around 11 euros to 40 euros one way I think depending on train type and time of day. I would suggest visiting the renfe website and having a look at the different options. As for where to stay, I think Malaga is easier for Granada, and Cordoba is similar from both. I can't speak based on experience though as we haven't visited Granada or Malaga yet! Whatever you decide I hope you have a great trip!

[@joho9815]

Is three days in Cordoba too much? I guess it just depends on how much I want to see.

[@OurTravelPlace]

If you did run out of things to do you could always do a day trip from Cordoba to somewhere else, but I at least think you could comfortably fill 2 days. 1 wasn't enough for us. Like you say, depends what you want to do and also what pace you like to go at. I think it also depends if you are just visiting Cordoba or if it's a multistop itinerary (i.e. do you have enough days for the other places too 🙂). If it were me and I was visiting a few places I would ideally want to spend 2 days in Cordoba if it worked. But visiting Cordoba only then 3 with the option of a day trip if I fancied it! 🙂

[@joho9815]

@@OurTravelPlace gracias

[@HT008]

You know when you booked the train? Did you also buy a return ticket or did the slow train ticket cover outward and return journey because it says round trip? So confused :(

[@OurTravelPlace]

If you are buying a return ticket first you select the outward journey, then you select the time you want to return. In the video clip it was set as a return journey and then I was showing you the different outward journey train options. Once you select your outward time, at the bottom of the screen a banner will pop up saying "next" - click next and then you can pick your return time. The total cost of a return ticket will be the outward + return journey ticket price. Hope it makes sense now? 🙂

Cordoba, the center of Islam in the golden age of Islam in Iberia. Unfortunately, the Great Mosque of Cordoba was converted into a church when Muslim lost and its Muslim population was forced to convert to Catholicism or be killed. But, I love Spanish culture and football.

[@sanjeebmandal6042]

Well same happened in Constantinople right? But u people are okay with thaf

Seriously. How about learning from history and realize our common humanity is far more than our differences?

[@viquiben4919]

Unfortunately? It was respected as a cult place, as it was most of our spanish muslim heritage wich we are so proud of. The Ancient Budhas of Bāmiyān in Afghanistan weren't so lucky and were blown up by radical taliban forces in 2001, after 1,500 years standing.

To say that Cordoba is for a day trip from Seville is to have very little knowledge. First of all because Cordoba is a city with a lot more things to do than Seville, even being a smaller city. Cordoba is the city with the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the world. With that alone I think it's all said and done. To see each of these world heritage sites you need at least one day. Please, let's be serious before making recommendations. Thank you.

[@OurTravelPlace]

At no point did I say you can do everything in Cordoba in one day. In fact, I acknowledged that you can't and that we wished we had longer than a day. However we only had time on our holiday for a day trip, and there will be others in that position too. In my opinion not being able to see everything in one day doesn't mean you shouldn't go, or that it's a poor choice for a day trip.

[@margchris3303]

You spoke so fast with a monotone voice !!!

[@OurTravelPlace]

Thanks for your feedback. I agree I am naturally a fast speaker (not something I realised before making videos!) so I will make a conscious effort to slow down next time. Never had anyone say monotone before though (normally comments on my voice are actually positive!), so I will take a listen back to this video and think about it for the next one.
