Worth it - Our guide was knowledgeable, humorous and made the experience of the cathedral extremely enjoyable. Without a guide, I’m not sure our group would have appreciated and understood the artistic and historical value of the cathedral. Highly recommended!

Exceptional monument and guide - An amazing glimpse into multicultural architectural triumph, explained with wit and clarity by our guide Paca. She even remembered our names and where the 14 of us were from and often related that to the subject at hand. Best guide ever.

Great stories to hear to appreciate the Mezquita - Very informative and key to really understanding the amazing space! Angel is a great guide and spoke English very fluently. We booked this tour a few hours beforehand and we were five of the six people on the tour. No headphones needed.

Building full of history! - Magnificent building, where history can be breathed deeply. Mosque-cathedral combining Islamic and Gothic/Renaissance architecture. With its extension of 23,000 square meters it was for many years the largest mosque of the time. I highly recommend the guided tour to better understand the vicissitudes of this structure. The guide who explained the mosque-cathedral to us was really smart! Never boring, always always smiling and available to answer our further questions. Compliments!
