Perfect tour for the weekend - This was a great tour, we saw so much and learned so much history. It was the perfect way to spend a few hours for a weekend trip. Our guide, Irina, was able to tell us incredible amounts of information and answer all the questions from the group. She was the most knowledgeable guide we have had. The tour was broken into three parts and the group split and picked up new guests. It didn't bother us but was interesting way to do it. We would recommend this tour if you have the time.

Good professionals. Very well informed. and very good people - Very serious, professional and empathetic people. Both Saray, Mamen and Rafa are art historians, great experts on the subject and passionate about dissemination. They take their work very seriously, they cope well with logistical inconveniences and they are close to visitors, whom they never treat as mere customers.

Exciting discovery of monuments recontextualized by essential historical reminders - Our guide Anna was exceptional: she spoke in perfectly clear english for us French people, her comments were precise and well illustrated by important historical reminders. She respected the schedule perfectly, the pace of the visit was appropriate and the discussions were interesting. It was a pleasure to listen to her speak so passionately about her city and to share her enthusiasm with us. Thanks a lot.

Guided tour (alcazar, Jewish quarter and mosque) with Gema 10/10 - I loved the guided visit, specifically, with Gema, it is clear that she enjoys her work, and she tells everything with a lot of passion and dedication. The visits to this historical heritage are incredible, starting with the history of the Alcázar, continuing with the walk through the streets of the Jewish quarter and ending with the incredible mosque 🕌, which is spectacular, huge and impresses with each of its details, especially the first apart from construction. Thank you for this very pleasant visit Gema. 100% recommendable

Good tour but smaller group size would be better - There were 26 people in our group each paying £39 per person that’s over a £1000 pounds for a 3 hour tour, they need to either reduce the price or do smaller groups.

Informative 3 hours - We chose this tour as it covered the 3 main areas in 3 hours . There was an opportunity for a short break which was welcome . The guide Anna was informative but somehow did not bring the history alive ( we had been spoilt in Seville with a guide who achieved that ) . The group was small which was good but people came and went at the different segments didn’t have a negative impact

Cordoba tour - It was a rough start due to the fact that the meeting point viator had was incorrect so we were stressing when our guide was not at the meeting point. The tour company even was blaming viator of having the wrong meeting point and viator said even tour company was liable. After numerous calls went out to Even and no one was picking up we called viator and 45 min later wee had a representative show up at our meeting point and took us to the rest of our tour. We missed 45 min of our tour and was trying to catch up.
