Hi Charles, THANK YOU! for asking the question that seems to perplex the most prospective visitors to Casa del Herrero. As Visitor & Volunteer Coordinator at CdH I found Trip Advisor's information about our hours a bit confusing - the site lists us as 'open' Monday thru Saturday, 9-5, but those are OFFICE HOURS ONLY. Actual TOURS require RESERVATIONS (taken over the phone, during Office Hours, above) and are available at 10:00 a.m. or 2:00 p.m. Wednesdays & Saturdays. Tours comprise about 10 or 12 to a group for a 90-minute, Docent-led, interpretive walking tour of the estate. Self-guided tours aren't permitted. Does this information answer your question satisfactorily? Cordially, Susannah G. Visitor & Volunteer Coordinator
