The Patios of Cordoba attract every year millions of tourists from all over the world. We will enter one of the most characteristic and beautiful neighborhoods of Cordoba: San Basilio, where we will discover its beautiful and well-kept private patios. We will visit the patios without crowds and with the tranquility they deserve, accompanied by a guide in Spanish that will solve all your concerns and curiosities.
