the Alcazar of the Christian kings a super pleasant visit with a guide like we would always like to have. - This morning we visited the Alcazar of the Christian Kings of Cordoba. We had a particularly fascinating guide, Estefania, who was able to convey to us with kindness and professionalism her great knowledge and love of her city.

Not worth the money - It wasn’t worth the money. Guid was good but there wasn’t much to show in the Alchazr. We started from one main entrance of it and funahws in another that was it.

No tour guide showed up - Despite paying in advance for an English speaking tour, no English speaking tour guide was available. THe only positive is that a refund was promptly issued. Wasted some of my time in Cordoba unfortunately.

Guide didn’t turn up / no refund - The guide booked didn’t turn up. I was told by other guides at the Alcazar that this was probably because their English speaking guide wasn’t available on the day. The company made no effort to contact me, and didn’t answer my request for a refund. I had the previous day booked a separate tour with them which they cancelled, providing a refund only after Getyourguide intervened on my behalf. It appears to be basically a scam.
