Grande Rafa - The guide, Rafael, has transmitted the love and knowledge for his work... passionate explanations with the sympathy of the Spaniards. Excellent tips for lunch and for visiting the castle of Almodovar

Good, but you think they should notify before the entry of the status of the work in progress - Rafael, the guide, very competent and passionate about his work. Pleasant visit. Too bad the pools in the gardens were empty, cause maintenance.

Isabel was a very good... - Isabel was a very good guide. Her English was very good as was her knowledge of history. The group size was quite small - much larger than some other groups we saw. We did the Mosque- cathedral tour and the Jewish quarter/Alcazar tour and both were equally good.

Didactic tour and very interesting - I did several tours in other companies and this one was 10!! Impossible to overcome the kindness and didactic way that Rosa had our guide to make the tour a unique moment. One detail no less worked very well the audio guide. I would repeat with this company thanks

Transported to the past - I hired the service for the first time and it won't be the last Super well organized and guides you a wonder. Mama lives her work, you can tell she likes what she does as well as being a historian, she's an excellent professional. We loved it.

Disappointing - Hard to hear and understand the guide. Not as impactful as other places we visited. Seems like the city tried to put something together to showcase the area.

Regular guide - no entrance to the Alcazar - Disappointment at not being able to enter the Alcazar. At the time of purchasing the tickets we were not told that you could not enter. The very regular guide, its very superficial stories and little elaboration in the story. Loose information. Very bad use of the microphone, he did not put on the headband and lost his voice. He gave more importance to his jokes than to the history of the places. Imprecise comments.
