“our day trip was excellent. Our driver/guide was excellent and he explained lots of things during our 2 hour 15 journeys. He also took us for a small tour around Cordoba Centre and took a Patio. The tour of the Mosque was very good although our guide for this part of the day did have problems with a family of five (3 children ) who decided to cut their tour short after about 15 minutes. The Mosque and Cathedral are wonderful to look at. Our guide was knowledgeable and explained facts very well. Only negative feedback was the quality of the microphone voice .
