The 1.5 hour tour of the city is just the right way to get to know Cadiz. Marta is an accomplished tourist guide who knows a lot about the city's historical facts, food, culture and economy. Now I know the importance of the 1812 Constitution and why a large monument on Pz. España commemorates this event.

My husband and I were lucky enough to have our guide, Maria, all to ourselves in this tour. We very much enjoyed the hour and a half that we spent in Maria’s company, learning about the history of Cadiz and being shown some of the most significant buildings and monuments in the town. Maria’s style of delivery was upbeat and amusing at times and she has a wealth of knowledge and information that she shared with us with an enthusiasm for her subject that seemed genuine. We would highly recommend the tour to anyone wanting an overview of Cadiz

We were very happy to be able to walk with Maria again. Two years ago she showed us medieval Cadiz. Now we wanted to get to know the city even better with the "normal" tour. Maria speaks very good English. She always tells interesting stories with lots of details and gives lots of good tips for sightseeing, museums, bars, etc. We're already looking forward to the next tour with her when we come back to Cadiz!
