Fun in Spain! - As I was solo traveling and it was my first time in Spain, I had no idea what to expect so I booked this service, and I have been absolutely amazed at how knowledgeable this tour was. I have learned a lot, had lots of fun as well, and would totally recommend this tour to everybody. Would I do this again you ask? Yes! definitely hundred times over!

Site visit enhanced by having Elena as our guide - We recently did a private tour of Madinat Al-Zahra Palace with Elena and it was fantastic! She was so accommodating - able to take us there and back for a small extra fee, starting the tour early to avoid crowds, and was a fun and knowledgeable guide. She made the site visit far more interesting than it would have been if we had visited alone. I'd highly recommend this tour with Mind Your Guide and any other tour guided by Elena.

Madinat Al-Zahra Private tour - We did a private tour the other week with Elena and visited the Madinat al-Zahra site.
Elena was very knowledgeable, super friendly and just a delight to learn from.
I would highly recommend any tour with Elena of the regions that she covers.

So memorable with awesome tour guides! - Ilma (Madinat Az Zahra) and Elena (Mosque Cathedral) were fantastic tour guides. Thtey were pleasant to spend time with and learn about each site. Our visits were so memorable. We had a wonderful time with both and we even got rings (my wife got one that was exactly like Elena's by chance!) as we did some shopping for gifts. They made our visit so memorable and I'll always remember both ladies with much gratitude and warmth. Thank you both so much!

A return to the past! - The visit is complete and very interesting. I discovered this place as only a guided tour allows you to visit it, that is to say with all the historical description of the site, my imagination did the rest.
Elena my guide lived up to her mission. Well done !

Madinat AlZahra with Elena - Elena is a great tour guide and very knowledgable in her field! I have always been interested in visiting Madinat Al Zahra, and Elena made the visit totally worth it! I highly recommend booking your tour with her as she is very informative and attentive. She walked us through the different rooms and answered all the questions that came to mind!

The guide never showed up....blame "system error" - I confirmed the private tour via Viator and TripAdvisor. The cost was charged to my credit card. I was issued a bar code confirmation with a request to meet the guide at 9am on the day of our tour (Aug 6th). we took 2 taxis from Cordoba...to the side...and no one showed up!! It is UNACCEPTABLE! No email from Mind your Guide, no email from Viator, no email from TripAdvisor to inform us. I then sent a note that morning and got an email that "due to a system error" the trip had not been processed. How ridiculous is it to receive a conformation code, have payment authorized and taken and have instructions provided to meet the guide---and then it's a system issue. it's shameful!!
