UNFORGETTABLE VISIT - Adrian and Damaso provided an unforgettable tour of Ubeda and Baeza. Adrian's quirky sense of humor and captivating storytelling brought the rich history of Jaen to life. His evident love for cats added a delightful personal touch that made the experience even more memorable. He's also a philologist for crying out loud! He's immensely knowledgeable and extremely patient in weaving the history of both towns. Damaso's driving skills complemented the journey perfectly. He's also from Baesa and owns the tour agency. Highly recommend this dynamic duo for anyone visiting the area! There was nostalgia when we parted ways. They truly made our visit memorable.

Ubeda and Baeza are worth the trip! - We had an incredibly complete tour of Ubeda and Baeza. We learned so much Spanish History. Marta was a delight and a consummate host. Helping us choose a lunch spot and interpreted for us at the olive oil store. The main thing is she was so knowledgeable about local history. Thomaso was an excellent driver and we also learned from him. Baeza and Ubeda will be treasured memories.
