Superb walking tour, Lucia was excellent - Lucia was incredible!! So knowledgble in history and art (she's an art restorer!), and a great sense of humor. She has a very engaging style and speaks excellent English, and we were able to have a number of detailed discussions with her. She gave us a whole new understanding and appreciate for Jerez. We couldn't have done better!!

An excellent tour and tour guide! - Lucia was a wonderful guide who enthusiastically showed us around Jerez. History and art are her passions and it showed with her knowledge of the Alcazar and the Cathedral. It rained during our two hour tour but the four of us so enjoyed all the history and information she provided. Her English is virtually fluid. She also provided places to eat as well as suggestions on other sights to see. We would love to give her 6 stars for this tour. Don’t hesitate to book this tour. You will learn so much!

Don't miss it. - A very pleasant experience. With Lucia, time is running short. He is an amazing person, with a deep knowledge of the places he shows and a taste for the culture and art he infects. It made our stay in Jerez very easy. We can't say there's anything wrong or better. The price is very much in line with what is offered. Fran and I congratulate you on your work.

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.
