The information was very interesting, but the guides’ English grammar and pronunciation was not good enough to make their point. They spoke quickly, but that is useless if you cannot get the message across. I am a Spanish teacher (in America), and it is frustrating to try so hard to understand and not understand much.

A memorable and enjoyable tour with 2 exceptional guides. They took the time to answer all questions with thoughtful answers and brought the history to life with interesting stories. The break was appreciated to allow use of the bathrooms and get a quick snack. If you are only doing one tour while it Cordoba, this is the one to take. Highly recommend!!!!!!

Highly recommended if you're short on time and want to see the essentials of Cordoba in one day! The guides were also really great, highly informative, and communicated well. Pacing was great and we didn't feel rushed in any of the sites we visited. Also, the time flew by fast - it didn't feel like a 4-hour tour.
