More than expected
The experience has been great. Our Carmen guide has plunged us directly into the 10th century, and his explanations have helped us understand Medina Azahara.

Free tour con Esther
An experience of 10 with Esther. He explained the whole story very well and in a pleasant way. We would certainly repeat again. I recommend choosing it 100%.

Very pleasant visit
Patricia made the visit very enjoyable for adults and children! We learned and were able to take photos. Our visit was at night, which is highly recommended for July! With the headphones you could hear Patricia perfectly without interruptions from the other groups!

In summer, night better than day
A highly recommended visit to avoid the most extreme heat hours. The night tour is quite complete (it includes transportation from Cordoba to the archaeological remains) and the Guide gives all kinds of details that any visitor can miss.

Fantastic Visit and Guide. Would do it again
A really interesting and beautiful place to visit. We arrived shortly after sunset (in July), so we could see the transition between the look of the place at dusk and night. Our Guide (Pilu) was excellent: very informative, providing context, explaining when we had questions and relating things we have seen to other places we could visit in Cordoba, and also interacted with the whole group. Being at night, visibility was reduced somewhat in some places, but the atmosphere was really nice, and the temperature was nice. A really interesting and beautiful place to visit.
