From Cordoba, you might be surprised the number of day excursions there are. One option that people like is that you can go to Granada and finish in Sevilla in one day which is a great time saver. Another idea  is our transfer to Granada driving through olive groves and beautiful Andalusian scenery. For a shorter option that is very convenient, consider  going to visit the Medina Azahara Islamic town.

Finally you can go visit Sevilla, Carmona or Ecija and make Cordoba your base as opposed to Sevilla. You will have less crowds, better prices and a more manageable city. Cordoba is also located near mountains with lots of great things to do. Visiting an Iberico ham farm or an olive mill are other options in this part of Spain.
