Caroline was excellent. She is so expert on the history of Jerez and had many extra “titbits” of information that enhanced the tour tremendously. Thank you so much, Caroline.

The tour was very interesting and detailed, Caroline is a true expert in Jerez and in whole Spain in general. She has a great knowledge in flamenco, Jerez wines and history. During the tour she was not only presenting the most important facts and history points, but also talking about people, about living in Spain and the collective memory of people, which is mirrored in the beautiful city of Jerez. In addition, Caroline is a very interesting and very kind person, we really enjoyed the tour with her and our quite large "walking tours" experience we would say that Caroline was one of the best guides we ever had :) Viktorija and Kazys, 2023-02-27
