Informative and Fascinating Tour of Jerez - Rosa was an amazing tour guide. She helped us meet up with the tour even though we’d had a travel delay and were late, which was a kindness! She gave the tour in both English and Spanish and was excellent at going back and forth. She didn’t shortchange either language group, and her English was perfect. It was honestly impressive how she managed it so smoothly. The tours of both the Alcazar and Cathedral were detailed and informative. Rosa made the history come alive with her passion and storytelling. We learned a lot and had an excellent experience.

Superb walking tour, Lucia was excellent - Lucia was incredible!! So knowledgble in history and art (she's an art restorer!), and a great sense of humor. She has a very engaging style and speaks excellent English, and we were able to have a number of detailed discussions with her. She gave us a whole new understanding and appreciate for Jerez. We couldn't have done better!!

Great introduction to Jerez - Negatives; It was hard to locate our guide as the meeting point was very busy and she did not have a board/uniform or anything to help identify herself. The tour lasted 30/45 minutes longer than advertised because the guide had to deliver it in two languages. Viator does state this may occur but if you are tight for time be aware of this.
Positives; guide was very informative, engaging and friendly with an awesome standard of English. Entrance tickets to the cathedral and casa were included and we were given a guided tour of each which was just at the right level for us. Would recommend as an introduction to Jerez and its history.

Great city tour - Alcazar was closed but we were told that in advance. Guide Rose told us all about it though, together with the historical story of Jerez, sherry making and a tour of the cathedral and surrounds. Very knowledgeable and a fun guide. English was very good.

I would definitely... - I would definitely recommend Rose our guide who was knowledgeable and friendly, but not the overall service. Unfortunately we had not realised in the small print and on an obscure page that the tour could be conducted in two separate languages. This slowed and dragged out the whole tour and left one feeling a bit disappointed. The company should have at least informed us beforehand so that we could have decided whether or not to remain with that particular tour. We felt it was just cutting corners and we paid the price for it.

Disappointed! - Unfortunately we weren’t able to participate as this tour was not in Seville as I had thought. I had searched Seville Alcazar & this tour came up & I booked plus our friends Kathryn Haagenson (x2). We only realized as we were walking to meet the tour group leader & we’re communicating with her & realized we were in the wrong city!
Would strongly suggest that it be advertised (not in Seville) as folks not familiar with Seville & surrounding cities, etc. are made aware.
Therefore I/we do not support this tour.
We would greatly appreciate a credit with Viator as we’ve already booked 3 tours & have another one to two booked.
Regards,
Dianne
