Beautiful and unusual cathedral with an interesting history of multi faith worship. The different artistic values of Mosque- Muslim worship are juxtaposed with the Catholic- Renaissance period. The meeting place for the tour was communicated clearly well before and the format allowed you to wander off to look at what interested you while still listening to the guide.

They did refund. They were not there with the umbrella they advertised. We messaged them. The system is TOTALLY BOGUS. Know one was there to reply. No way to contact them. Leaving the next day and NEVER got to see tour.
An excellent guide who was full of enthusiasm and knowledge. I think 15 is about the limit for groups. More than that and it becomes harder for the guide.
Wonderful tour of the Mosque Cathedral in Cordoba with Rebecca. History of this beautiful place told with obvious passion and great knowledge. Would highly recommend.
Horrible! Our tour left without us because no one at Pancho Tours ever sent them our reservations. Because of this we also were not allowed in with our tickets. We lost time and money.
The guide for this tour did not show up, and did not response to our messages. Viator customer service was friends but unable to help. Your payment system did not work. We were unable to book another tour, after spending 45 frustrating minutes on the phone with your customer representative. A truly awful experience.
An excellent tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide, Patricia. An amazing building brought to life with great stories and information by Patricia. Highly recommend seeing the building with a tour guide, preferably Patricia!
Our guide Ana was well-organized, knowledgeable and very passionate about the Mezquita-Catedral. She brought 1000 years of history to life! The place itself was incredible. Anyone going to Córdoba should not miss this!
If I could, I would rate this as "0" stars. The tour operator never showed up and wouldn't answer the phone. The Mosque-Cathedral was the reason we came to Cordoba. Please do not let this review stop you from going to the Mosque-Cathedral, it is amazing. Just use another vendor with Viator.
Pancho Travels guide did not turn up. We had the address and waited for 45 mins. Very unprofessional and difficult to contact to get information
I recently took a guided tour of the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba, and it was an experience I won't soon forget. Our guide, was exceptional—his knowledge of the history and architecture of the site was impressive, and her passion was infectious. The Mosque-Cathedral itself is a stunning example of the confluence of Islamic and Christian architectural styles, and the guide's insights helped us appreciate the intricate details and the historical context behind them. He pointed out the evolution of styles from the Umayyad mosque to the later Christian additions, making it easier to understand the complex history of this unique monument. The tour was well-paced, allowing us plenty of time to take in the beauty of the arches, the richness of the mihrab, and the grandeur of the nave. The guide was also very attentive to our group's needs, answering all our questions and ensuring that everyone could hear and see everything clearly. This tour was not only educational but also deeply moving, highlighting the cultural and religious significance of the Mosque-Cathedral in the history of Spain. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Córdoba. Whether you're a history buff, architecture enthusiast, or just curious about this famous landmark, you will find the tour thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening.
I book this experience, I arrive on the point appointment 15 minutes early but not body show. I wait in total 40 minutes...I try to contact them but no reply...Probably they received just my booking and for this they decided to cancel without to send me any email.Very very bad
The tour itself was great. I loved the history and it’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve seen. My only complaint is that this is the 2nd of many viator tours I have booked with the wrong meeting point. We got to the tour 15 mins early in search of green umbrellas as indicated by the instructions for the English tour. We found the white umbrellas for Spanish. Asked her for help she pointed us around. We frantically continued to look for the tour. Asked the many others at this point we were late and went back to the white umbrella for her to say it was her tour we were looking for. It set the entire tour off on a bad foot as my husband and I were sweating and upset at the run around. Viator and this tour company needs to update their meeting points.
Given wrong location for meeting point. Groups merged with guide seemingly only interested in his original six.
Very interesting tour with the history of the building and explanations as to the importance of portions of the building. Anna put a bit of humour into the tour that kept us engaged. Not surprising a lot of people within the building so tough to navigate sometimes.
Very interesting explanations from the professional guide Enrique. We were glad to participate in the tour. Outstanding experience!
Our guide Enrico was precise , alive and not boring so the whole tour was enjoyable Great guide n great tour
Fantastic experience, our guide was very knowledgeable but she kept it light and fun. I walked away with a deeper understanding of history and architecture. Very happy and would do again!
The guide was amazing she was very knowledgeable about the history and the building. She was very respectful on the subject and I really appreciated that. She was funny too and knew her way round .
Lovely guide - Anna! Well prepared and good tips and information on the edifice history. Good to visit. Would have been great if the old mosque (mezquita) be separated from the Christian interference…
We had a pleasant experience with Lidia (or Olivia?). We made Spanish tour and it was a strong and impressive tour. Mezquita had ipnotized us!
Bad service and not accurate information as I booked for English tour and the one available was in Spanish.
This is a unique place in the world, where different relegions coexist under one roof. It would be impossible to understand the history of it unless you do a guided tour. What an amazing experience that was!
I booked this “ small group “ tour. I luckily took a screen shot of the “ thank you for your payment “ , because I did not receive any follow up email. I checked the Spam as advised. So we arrived in Cordoba with no instructions. My screen shot produced no recognition from any umbrella people , or the ticket office. I phoned the head office with what I imagine will be quite an expense. The email was in Promotions. I found the green umbrella. We were ticked off. A large group ( 22 ) were milling around , not looking happy. It was 45 degrees. The guide was late off another tour where people had turned up late. ( Maybe shorten the previous tour where people turned up late ? ) So 20 minutes later … the poor guide , I think her name was Maria Consuela , it was not her fault , but she looked exhausted and was flustered. As we entered , a man in our group was refused entry because he would not take off his hat . On his religious grounds , so that is awkward. But this took up more time , our guide was very upset … too big a group. The Mesquite is exquisite. So worth it. But I would not do a big group tour like this again.
Anna had the best personality and gave a wonderful informational tour. Definitely made my trip in Córdoba.
Très bon guide et surtout monument incroyable avec une symbiose de 2 religions très impressionnante!!! À ne pas manquer
Excelente atención y excelente la explicación del guía. Un trato estupendo y muy didáctica y llevadera la charla. Lo poco más de una hora que dura la visita se pasa muy rápido y muy entretenida.
Une visite de la mosquée cathédrale très bien commentée par notre guide Marie Carmen .Prise en charge sans attente au point de rendez vous .Nous avions réservé la veille a 23 h pour une visite le lendemain ,c' était inespéré
It was an enriching and fun experience with a group of respectful Spanish tourists. Carmen, the guide was very friendly and excellent. Thank you very much Carmen! Naima EZ ZAHRAOUI
The visit totally changes, I think that the visit without the knowledge of its history makes 60% of the visit lose, the only drawback is that if it is a large amount without reaching “group” the price soars a little, it would be okay a proportional discount as people increase.
Entertaining and great. We really enjoyed this visit. Olivia was very clear and didactic with her explanations.
the guide super nice and made our visit very entertaining. Super recommended. With very curious explanations we missed the visit flying
We had an excellent explanation of the monument and the history that happened around it. Without boring
The visit, despite the time 17:00 in the middle of August, was very very enjoyable and interesting. Content loaded with historical references that make you transported over time. Highly recommended!
Visit very well organized, very interesting and entertaining, our great guide, fully recommended.
Everything went as planned, at the scheduled time at the planned site was the contact person at the meeting point. Then the punctual guide arrived and gave us a very complete and didactic guided tour.
In relation to the experience has been very good, with the visit and the guide, but there are certain things that are poorly realized, are as follows; - At no time are we informed that we have to leave the car in a "free" parking lot and that we must take a bus with a cost of € 2.5 per person one way and return to get to the place agreed with the Guide Enterprise. - Wearing a mask on the bus, if you happen not to have a mask your alternative is to walk to the place of the visit, 2/3 kilometers. - The start of the activity was delayed 15 min
Must see in the city. A unique monument, and the word here is non-negotiable. Nowhere else on the planet can you find something like that. A mixture of cultures, architectures and styles simply amazing. The guide made the visit very enjoyable and very interesting
Too long and have not adapted to what we wanted; also told us all the information without motivation
Very good explanation of the guide and very good attitude, also made it super enjoyable Thanks to the signs q carried and thank you and
a well explained and enjoyable visit. You learn a lot. Great treatment that makes you smile, the guide was very friendly and attentive
Notable the good work of the guide in La Mezquita, super detailed explanations, entertaining and fun. I would definitely repeat!!
Super interesting visit, time was flying! The guide Miguel is spectacular, great knowledge and sympathy, the explained everything with a lot of humor and the visit was super nice, the best guide in the world!!
The guide explained everything great, let us stop to take pictures and explained things even that were not inside the tour.
The Guide knew a lot and was very friendly with all my questions, even took pictures that I asked. The wonderful place, and with the help of the knowledge of the guide, much more inspiring.
I went with my partner to get away to Cordoba and we could not miss the opportunity to visit the Mosque. A wonderful visit to a magical place. Special mention to the guide for his attention and sympathy.
The visit is very pleasant and pleasant, the guide shows you amazing and beautiful sites, it is worth it. Essential.
Miguel, is a very clear guide in the explanation of each of the places, very nice and enjoyable. I highly recommend your Service
