Two wonderful hours in Jerez. - Our guide Lucia was excellent. Her knowledge was very extensive. The pace was great and two hours went so quickly. It was wonderful to cover the two major sights with such an informed guide.

Recommended Guide - Lu was an excellent guide. We were also lucky enough to have her all to ourselves, so we were able to ask questions and linger wherever suited us, which was great. She has perfect English (from some time in the States) and put us at ease quickly. As has been said she is extremely knowledgeable and has an in- depth understanding and love of everything she shows you. Highly recommended.

Fantastic guide. Well worth doing. - Lucía was an excellent guide. We were lucky enough to have her all to ourselves, so we were able to ask questions and linger wherever suited us, which was great. But she was so kind and professional that I think she would easily handle a larger group with ease and everyone would have a good experience. She is very knowledgeable, speaks perfect English, and has an in- depth understanding of everything she shows you. Highly recommended.

Visiting the two important sites of Jerez - It was raining at the time and that could have put a damper on the experience, but our guide gave us a well informed and interesting tour. Aside from being quite pleasant in spite of the rain, she offered insights into the architecture and had historical knowledge to help us visualize the life of the original builders.

Trip Jerez - Very good. Very professional, friendly and highly recommended guide. He was concerned not only with showing us the part of the Cathedral and Alcázar but also advised us on more aspects of the region.

A knowledgeable guide. - Our guide was knowledgeable and keen to tell us about it all. We did enjoy the walk with a lot of information packed in. Perhaps a little less would have been more enjoyable.
