First, Driver - Michael was our driver. Simply put, he was exceptional. Very knowledgeable, engaging and enjoyable. Very good English; understood the nuances very well. That’s one of the reasons it was so fun to talk with him. He went out of his way to answer all of our questions and even gave us additional exploration tips for our next/final day in Granada. What a treat! In all of our travels, Michael was one of the best drivers we’ve ever had. Second, tour guide in Cordoba - Isabel was delightful. She had a very good mastery of the subject matter. She took all the time needed to give us a very thorough tour of the Cathedral of Cordoba. While English is her second language, she did a very good job communicating all the facts about the cathedral. She clearly has a very bright future in tourism. She made our day enjoyable and we would recommend her highly. Third, a suggestion going forward - the crowds throughout the day were very large and quite noisy. As a result, Isabel would have to stop, face us, and then directly speak to us in order to be heard. This resulted in a continual interruption of our tour and her explanations. We strongly suggest the use of a microphone for the guide and headsets for the guests. This would allow the guide to continually provide information as the guests are viewing the sights, thus avoiding unnecessary interruptions. Well, done to both Michael and Isabel.
Safe bet on food, just like on Service especially with David.We will repeat next year.
Ana was a wonderful guide for our city tour, an information filled 3 hours. She was able to answer all our questions and direct us to restaurants for lunch afterward.
<p>good guide and driver comfortable experience clear explanations overall a very worthwhile day!</p>
<p>This was expensive but there were four of us, with two having been to Cordoba twice in prior years. We wanted the others to share the experience we had had. I didn't make the booking until the day before which caused a bit of on again off again due to Australia confirming the booking but Grandad not knowing anything about it. Things worked out! There were only the four of us transported by a private vehicle to Cordoba and then we saw firstly the beautiful gardens, Jardines del Alcazar, and the Jewish quarter, that we hadn't previously seen and then on to the Mosque/ Cathedral. A wonderful day enjoyed by all.</p>
<p>The driver was extremely friendly and made the journey to Cordoba unforgettable by sharing lots of information about the destinations and places. The tour guide was friendly and provided all the necessary details we would want to know about the place.</p>
<p>Driver was amazing, Tour guide extremely knowledgeable and attentive</p>
<p>Cordoba is do-able from Granada, and definitely worth visiting, especially the mosque-cathedral. Viator driver and local guide in Cordoba both excellent: knowledgeable and courteous. Recommended.</p>
<p>nothing could be better than this the guide was so good her name was maria and the driver michal who made us feel comfortable</p>
Was a little disappointed with the tour in that it did not last as long as the itinerary had stated. The driver took a little longer to arrive in Cordoba (3 hours in total) than expected, but took the more historical route on the way there. We stopped off at an interesting little shop on the way which sold various products made from the local olive groves. Although we enjoyed the tours of the main sites, the guide was very friendly & enthusiastic. I would have appreciated being able to see other parts of the very pretty city of Cordoba with the time we had to spare. We arrived back at our hotel at around 6pm. I also felt the overall price for the tour was a little excessive.
