Learned so much more about the Cathedral than just visiting on our own. Jenny was so passionate about her subject and passed her knowledge brilliantly. Rubin took over for the second half of the tour and lead us through the Old Jewish Quarter and Alcazar. He was very personable and relaid lost of interesting details along with a dash of humour.

We enjoyed the tour. It was very informative and thorough. We had a guide change in the middle between the Mosque and the Alcazar. Unfortunately the second guide’s English was not as strong as the first. The change somewhat upset the rhythm of the tour for us but overall we would recommend this service.
