Great tour . Viatour app needs work - Our guide was great . Jamie was friendly funny and very knowledgeable. I will say we have struggled with your viatour app and downloading tickets for various events stuck in and endless “do loop”.

Chema is an excellent guide! - Chema was very personable, but didn’t waste any time. He was organized, systematic, and thorough with the tour. We felt we actually learned and understood the history of the Mezquita. My teenagers appreciated his jokes and felt included. Chema was by far the best guide on our two week trip in Spain.

Nice experience in the Mosque - Despite the warmth at noon yesterday and how tired we were of the trip (it was the last day). The visit was great, the guide Luis very competent (you can see that he really likes his work and has devotion to Cordoba), We had to make a quick visit, but we liked it so much that we are already planning to spend a weekend in Cordoba when it is not so hot.

Don't Miss This Amazing Cathedral within a mosque - Made Better With An Expert Guide - We have never seen anything like this is all of our many travels. Inside this beautiful mosque, there is a huge surprise - a complete Catholic Cathedral. Unlike most religious sites, the Catholics didn't demolish the mosque and start over, instead they preserved 80% of this gorgeous mosque and built a cathedral within it. It was totally worth going and it was one of the highlights of our travels in Spain. We used My Top Tours, and our guide, Jamie, a native of Cordoba, was so friendly, knowledgeable and made the tour an absolute delight!

Great ☺️ - The guide was great, we went with my 8 and 10 year old daughters, and she made the girls pay attention throughout the visit and ask her questions about the mosque

The mosque is absolutely... - The mosque is absolutely amazing. The guide was ok, but the information could have been organized and presented better. Some visual aids or photos may have helped.

Insightful and very knowledgable guide - The site was amazing to visit and the guide was certaintly knowledgable and helpful in describing the various parts, art and history. I really liked the guide but seemed to start off a bit a nervous and got more comfortable through the tour, one suggestion would be to get people to walk around a bit more its one of the benefits of having a earpiece is that we don't need to be right next to you all the time, not the guides fault but would be good to encourage peope to move around abit more and i'm sure would help with the nerves.
