Alcàzar of Cordoba closed for restoration

You must inform travelers that the Alcàzar of Cordoba is currently closed for restoration and that the gardens are not open to visitors either. A change is offered, after purchase, with a visit to the royal baths and patios, which while cute, have nothing to do with the Alcàzar.

Gentile cliente, Grazie per aver condiviso la sua opinione. Desideriamo informarla che l'Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos è attualmente chiuso per lavori di restauro, una situazione che esula completamente dalla nostra gestione. Questa informazione è chiaramente indicata nella descrizione del prodotto prima dell'acquisto. Inoltre, il nostro team contatta sempre preventivamente i clienti per informarli di questa circostanza e offrire loro la possibilità di annullare senza alcun costo o di optare per un'alternativa, come la visita ai bagni reali e ai cortili. Ci dispiace che l'esperienza non abbia soddisfatto le sue aspettative, ma ci impegniamo costantemente per offrire la massima trasparenza e diverse opzioni ai nostri visitatori. Cordiali saluti.

Uninsured benefit

39€ for guided tour Eventour of the Alcazar. Alcazar closed on D-Day. We could only see the garden (free visit) and the califal baths (visit at 6€)... I made a complaint but no action was taken.

Operator response

Cher client, Nous sommes sincèrement désolés que votre expérience n'ait pas répondu à vos attentes. Nous comprenons parfaitement votre déception de ne pas avoir pu visiter l'intérieur de l'Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos cette fois-ci. Nous tenons à préciser que le monument est actuellement fermé pour cause de travaux de restauration, ce qui est clairement indiqué sur toutes nos plateformes de réservation. Il y est précisé que la visite comprend la visite des jardins et des bains califaux, de sorte que les personnes qui achètent leur billet le font en connaissance de cause. La visite s'est déroulée comme prévu dans le programme, mais nous apprécions néanmoins votre avis, car il nous aide à continuer à nous améliorer et à offrir une communication toujours plus claire et transparente. Nous espérons vous accueillir à nouveau à l'avenir, lorsque l'Alcázar rouvrira complètement ses portes, afin que vous puissiez profiter pleinement de l'expérience. Cordialement, Eventour

Rosa was outstanding.

Rosa was lovely. He gave us a lot of information, not only about the Alcazar but also to give historical context.

Highly recommended

Very happy with the experience with Viatur. We have done a guided tour in Alcázar de Córdoba, with Rosa, our guide. We loved how he explained it and how he managed to keep the interest of our children 8 and 4. How wonderful when you find someone who does their job this well. Thanks Rosa!

See with a guide

The site was much more meaningful with a guide to explain the importance of the artifacts. Gardens were beautiful.

Unforgettable Alcázar Tour with a Brilliant Historian - A Must-Do Tour for History Lovers!

Our tour in Córdoba was an unforgettable experience! My parents and I had the pleasure of visiting the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, and it was truly a treat to be guided by María del Carmen — a passionate historian who brought the site to life with her knowledge and storytelling. She didn’t just walk us through the Alcázar, she took us on a journey through the rich, layered history of Córdoba itself — from pre-Roman times through to the Christian monarchs. Her insights into the different cultures that have shaped the city added so much depth to our visit. We left feeling inspired and informed — and with a deeper appreciation for the city’s incredible heritage. Highly recommend this tour and María del Carmen as a guide!

Did not attend

I booked this visit, Alcazar, in the wrong city. We were unable to attend the visit. I did not ask for a refund. They would not accommodate us in Madrid.

Operator response

Dear Peter, Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the misunderstanding regarding the location of your booking. As the official local provider of guided visits in Córdoba, we manage the experiences that take place specifically in this city. Unfortunately, we have no operational capacity or authority in Madrid. While we understand how disappointing this situation must have been we always recommend double-checking this information prior to the tour. Even so, we’re always happy to help in any way possible within our scope. Warm regards, The Eventour Córdoba Team
