    Rebecca was an excellent guide. She apologized a few times for her “Spanish accent” but she needn’t have. She clearly shared her depth of knowledge about the history of Cordoba. Her tour of the Juderia neighborhood and the great thinkers memorialized in that area was very interesting. What was most compelling was how she managed to explain the centuries- long, complicated development of the Mezquita with passion and respect and great pride.

    Olivia was a great guide, Storyteller. Very knowledgeable thus making it easy to understand the long history of the mosque cathedral. The Building itself is a must see, but take a knowledgeable guide. It makes everything much more meaningful. We were just 4 people for the cathedral and only 2 for the Jewish quarter, so really had a chance to understand everything and post our questions. Thank you, Olivia

    It was my dream to visit Andalusia and a purpose, my main motive of the trip was the visit Grand Mosque-Cathedral. I had a little bit of historical background knowledge and I had short two days in Cordoba only, so for me was best to ask professional guide as I wanted discover as musc as possible. I got VIP service only by myself, I mean she guided me individual - she did not cancel the program because only one person booked. (!) She is very professional, She is nice person, She is Cordobes, her knowledge impressive - huge amount general knowledge and lots of small interesting details she knows. She snowed hidden places which I could not find by myself, answered all my question, The rhythm of the trip was just perfect, had enough time for everything. I did not felt rush through it, was comfortable individual guide, I could take good photos too, I had time for it. I got a coupon to eat local food, this way even I learned a new taste as well. I loved it all. You must do it!
