Really informative and interesting. We had some issues with the listening devices, so sometimes we couldn't hear, and there was a constant buzzing sound in the background. The Jewish quarter and Synogogue was a little rushed and didn't feel as in depth

Visit a bit long (4h), not easy to follow and stay focused for so long; the guide was professional and very nice but with a flow and an accent that sometimes hindered our understanding; too much information in 4h. I don't recommend the 3 activities (alcazar, Jewish quarter and mosque); in my opinion, only the last 2 are of interest, so a 2h30 visit is preferable.

The visit went very well, but your guides need a bit more training. For example, our guide told us (twice) that the church in the mosque-cathedral was facing Jerusalem.... Churches are not oriented towards Jerusalem but towards the East, the rising sun, which refers to the risen Christ. (This is not to be confused with the orientation of mosques). Furthermore, he did not show us the Visigoth remains of the church on which the mosque was built. What a pity.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to describe the various historical aspects very vividly and clearly. Although new guests were assigned to her every hour, she took into account the guests' different levels of prior knowledge. Without the tour, we would have missed out on the very complex and exciting connections.

To have seen the sights I had booked. Both guides spoke passionately and vividly, unfortunately I couldn't understand their English. Disliked: the English with a strong Spanish accent of the first guide and the fast speaking of the second guide. The tour of the Jewish quarter was just a walk to the synagogue through a patio!

Visit a bit long (4h), not easy to follow and stay focused for so long; the guide was professional and very nice but with a flow and an accent that sometimes hindered our understanding; too much information in 4h. I don't recommend the 3 activities (alcazar, Jewish quarter and mosque); in my opinion, only the last 2 are of interest, so a 2h30 visit is preferable.

Enthousiaste gids. Hij wist vanwege zijn studie veel te vertellen. Misschien wel goed om meetingpoint juister te vermelden. Dus niet bij de nieuwe hoofdingang, maar aan de achterzijde.
