Córdoba – Bespoke Argentina Itineraries

Founded in 1573, Córdoba stands as one of Argentina‘s oldest cities, boasting a mix of colonial architecture and modern sophistication.

Its university (established in 1613, making it the oldest in Argentina) has shaped the city's identity ever since, drawing students and intellectuals who give the streets an energy that doesn't quiet down after dark. From the Jesuit Block at its historic core to the indie restaurants and live music venues of Nueva Córdoba, the city rewards those who take the time to explore beyond the main plaza.
