It was a fantastic almost private tour that we experienced. 90 minutes of Cordoba Mosque - knowledgeable, intriguing and very interesting. Afterwards Jewish Quarter and Alcazar with Haim was something else - funny and relaxed but at the same time very educating tour - just the way how knowledge should be transmitted. Altogether - highly recommendable anytime.

It was very well-rounded. We covered a lot of ground in a very gracious way. We were lucky with our guides, they are all graduated from the Art Faculty and know how to keep a crowd entertained. Best money spent ever

The tour guide Susan was very knowledgeable. My two teenagers were very interested if thought it was a very intense 3-hour session. Highly recommend!
