Private Tour to Medina Azahara

5.00We had a lovely tour to Medina Azahara. Booked last minute to enable us to have a greater understanding of the site. Anna was a wonderful guide, very professional and tailored/adjusted the tour well for my family especially as my dad had slower mobility (there are stairs/slopes). Going to the museum first was a great way to start the tour.
Amazing tour

5.00I took this tour with Helena. It was a great tour! She gave so much information about the site, answered every question I had, and had helpful recommendations. The site itself is incredible and 100% worth seeing. The remains are amazing.
Great experience

5.00Antonio was an amazing guide and had plenty of information to share about this beautiful place. It was my first time doing a private tour and it felt so much more personalized than the small group tours I am used to. Would recommend!

5.00We booked the guided tour with them and it was quite a success. Antonio, the guide, explained everything great, and was super attentive to all the details. You can see that he has extensive knowledge and that he manages the subject, making you totally immerse yourself in the history of the place. I would definitely recommend it and of course, we would repeat.
A great guide to a lovely visit

5.00We visited with Sara Eva as a guide and it was a pleasure. Although it has been a rainy day we loved the visit and all the information and anecdotes it has told us. At all times he has been watching for any detail to make the whole group a great visit. Definitely a great experience with a great professional. Thank you also to Nacho for the facilities in the procedures.

5.00Antonio visited us with a lot of data, and at the same time enjoyable and fun, you can see that he lives it and so he transmits it as he transmits it. It got very short and that was more than two hours.
A journey back in time
