I was born in Córdoba, but I love meeting people from everywhere. l work as a guide full time which makes me quite happy, having the experience of teaching the history and explaining archeological details around the walking tour. It's a real pleasure for me to empathize with the clients and feel their emotions and their curiosities. I studied Tourism in Córdoba, Andalucia, however, I learned English in the USA where I had the great experience of living there. After working with and for international people, such as receptionist, exporter manager. . . I became an Official Tourist Guide, my always-desired job! Cordoba is such a wonderful city that has so much history to share that when someone tours with me, he/she finds a straightforward going person who has a passion for her city, her history, her culture. . . . ; I would say that most of my clients end up looking forward come back to Cordoba. I recommend different itineraries but they can be adapted to different desires, this is your time to enjoy and know the city as deeply as your time lets you.

Historian David Lowenthal said: "Heritage is not history: heritage is what people make of their history to feel good" And that's partly true, with me you'll really enjoy, you'll be surprised, you'll cry, and that whole set of emotions is what gives meaning to my work. I will never forget, during the guided tour of the Mosque-Cathedral, a man, young and tall, seemed shy, began to cry in front of me; I asked him if we should stop, and he said, "No, please, just go ahead, I really want to know more" "The Mosque of Córdoba" represents the history of Córdoba, from the Muslim occupation (VIII-XIII centuries) until the conquest of the Christian king Fernando III. The result of this transformation is unique: "a cathedral within a mosque". Although it sounds difficult to understand, with me you will travel through time, understand the reason for its transformations and why it is considered a unique monument.
- Orange Trees Courtyard (ancient Ablutions Courtyard) - Remains from the ancient Christian episcopal complex - Different Islamic extensions. - Mihrab - Cathedral (Special schedule on Sundays) I am more than willing to customize this tour according to your preferences, please contact me for a personalized tour.
