Our guide Rebbecca started the tour by informing us that 'We have a problem in Espana which is Gipsy women. All they want to do is steal your money, so don't talk to them'. I stopped paying attention after that sentence, could have been ok, who knows?
Carmen had great enthusiasm for her beloved Mezquita.This mosque/ cathederal is unique in its beautiful architecture and huge changes across the centuries.She had an accent that made her a little difficult to understand with the speed she gave so much information.Every few metres there was a change in history,with multiple religions intertwined in the same building. It is a must see!
The Mezquita is an amazing experience with a complicated history. Understanding the history and layers of development are essential to truly appreciating it. Paki was an exceptional guide who gave us that. She was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, entertaining and expert at weaving her way through the Mezquita to give us the best possible experience.
Mosque-Cathedral Cordoba. The guided tour was excellent, the quide speaking perfect English. Her knowledge definitely enhanced our visit. Everything went to plan and the instructions from Tripadvisor were faultless. The Mosque was very busy as expected but not so that it interfered with our visit. There were only 6 of us which made the tour much more intimate. Following the tour, which lasted just over an hour, we had free time to explore more. Thank you Tripadvisor for offering this tour of the Cordoba Mosque- Cathedral in Cordoba.

Our first tour on our Andalucia holiday. This is stunning. The hundreds of columns are quite disorientating and made me feel the building was miles long. Very glad we had a guide to help us get the most from our visit

The mezquita is packed and even at the start of April Cordoba can be very hot especially in the afternoon. Best to take the tour in the afternoon, if you are staying in town for the night as the crowd thins later in the afternoon. Sorry forgot who toured us but she was very engaging and explained well. There were many characters in the history of the mosque and the tour guide should be eloquent and concise to explain well and yet not overwhelm the tourists. She was able to do that. It was supposed to be a small group tour but there were only 2 of us on that day. She also gave us opportunities to take photos and videos which was nice and didn’t feel rushed.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful and detailed feedback. We are delighted to know you enjoyed the experience and appreciated the clear and engaging way the visit was conducted, as well as the opportunity to take your time and capture photos and videos without feeling rushed. Regarding the weather, Córdoba’s spring can indeed be quite variable. While some days can feel warm, others are noticeably cooler, and even in May we sometimes experience rain and fresher temperatures. Until mid-June, spring in Andalusia can be unpredictable, so it is always advisable to be prepared for different conditions. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are very happy that you had such a positive experience discovering the Mezquita with Konexion Tours. #KonexionTours
Visited the city of Cordoba with a rented city guide, a charming feisty lady, who guided us 2h30 around Cordoba, the Mosque, the avenues, the small streets and the Jewish Quarter, very pleasant and educational, without a guide you do not know much and do not pay attention to beautiful details and special features, a must for a city like Cordoba
