My name is Azahara Serrano and I am an official tour guide in Córdoba. I've studied History for 5 years, then I've studied a Master in Antiquity and now I'm studying Art History. I love showing the rich heritage of Córdoba and my main goal is to make visitors feel at home and make them enjoy a lot of Córdoba. I've been working as a tour guide in Italy for 2 years, and then I came back to Cordoba to share my city with travellers who want to discover this amazing and magic place. I offer private tours to the most important monuments of Córdoba, but I can also organize customized tours. If you are interested in a particular part of the story, in a particular religion, or have special needs you can simply write me and I will offer you a tour adapted to your needs or interests One of my strengths is to adapt to the interests of each one, since each visitor may be interested in a specific part of the story. So, my tour is adapted to each person.

The Umayyads extended the Islamic territory from Damascus, to the Western world. In 711 they conquered the Iberian Peninsula and it became an Umayyad province. When the Umayyad caliphate of Damascus was overthrown by the Abbasids in 750, the last surviving member of the dynasty fled to Spain, establishing himself as Amir and thus initiating the Umayyad emirate. This presence and control will last until the division of Al-Andalus in 1031. Do you want to know what al-Andalus was?

To do the tour in Córdoba, due to the characteristics of its urban planning, it is impossible to travel by car. Anyway, the tour that is offered, takes place in a space not very extensive. That's why the tour takes place on foot.
