Our guide, Manuel, gave us a great personalized tour of the Alcazar and the Cathedral. We started at the Plaza Espana and along the beautiful streets and parks. Manuel led us to all the most important sites at both locations and a charming coffee break and later lunch at a tapas spot were included. Manuel even took us to a family owned ceramic tile works as we requested. Juan did a great, comfortable drive from the cruise terminal in Cadiz. A highlight of our cruise around Iberia.

Itinerary
Alcazar was the old arabic palace of Sevilla. Nowadays is the Royal Residence of the Kings of Spain in the city. Movies like Laurence of Arabia and Games of Thrones were made here. Very nice gardens inside.
Former Jewish section of the city called Santa Cruz and nowadays one of the most romantic quarters in Spain thanks to the myth of Don Juan. Neighborhood full of charm with narrow streets, white houses and courtyards with fountains and full of flowers, latticed windows and beautiful balconies.
Our Cathedral is called Santa Maria and it is consider the biggest in gothic style in the world. Christopher Columbus tomb is a must....
Giralda is the symbol of Sevilla, it is the bell tower of the Cathedral and former minaret of the ancient mosque. You will have the possibility to climb up at the end of the tour.

Excellent and informative tour! We learned SO much!! We also had the most delicious tapas recommended by our guide and had a memorable time at the cathedral and alcazar! Highly recommend!!
Our port was cancelled during the major power outage and we were refused a refund. This was out of our control and we are out over $2,000 with no help at refunding us at all.
I gave this tour 4 stars, and did that only because I made a complaint to the owner regarding our driver, Abdul, who took us from Cadiz to Seville, and the owner said he would not contract with him again. Abdul was a horrendous driver, but gave the owner the benefit of the doubt since he promised not to use his services again. Make sure the owner keeps his word and you don't get stuck with Abdul. The tour in Seville by Viviana was excellent. She was well-informed and a real pleasure to have as a guide. The group enjoyed walking around with her.
With our group of 8 people including senior citizens and a 4 year old, this tour was perfect. Our driver was at the port on time ready and waiting for us at the designated time. He drove us to Seville where we met our tour guide Raquel who was AMAZING and super knowledgeable about her city. She led us on a walking tour first pointing out things and then took us to the Alcazar. The nice thing about this tour is that Raquel already had our tickets which must have had a special designation because we were able to skip the (very) long line and go right in. The Alcazar is a stunning and beautiful piece of architecture. We next went to the Cathedral which was so beautiful! It is the largest neo-Gothic cathedral in the world. We then had the option to climb the Giralda tower which a few of us in our group did and the others chose not to. We had about an hour after that to walk around, get some lunch and shop. Our driver was waiting for us at the designated time again ready to take us back to the port. Overall, this tour was perfect for the amount of time that we had as we got to see a lot in a short period of time. Very nice that tickets to both the Alcazar, Cathedral and Giralda tower are included. Raquel was very efficient in her use of time and super pleasant and kind. She really knew her stuff. There wasn’t a question we asked that she didn’t have an answer to regarding her hometown. Highly highly recommend especially if you only have the day in Seville.
Antonio was a great guide. Extremely knowledgeable with interesting bits of information. One of the best tours we have had on this trip. Had a little confusion with the trip from Cadiz port as the driver was at the wrong cruise ship but it all worked out. Highly recommend.
Diana our guide was wonderful!! Very knowledgeable and informative of the culture and history of the city and the monuments we went to:) Antonio was a wonderful driver:)
Juanma was a safe and accommodated driver. Antonio our guide tour explained us in an interesting way the more important places in Seville. He has a deep knowledge about the Seville history. We really recommend this tour to anyone interested in the Seville history.
Visiting the palace and cathidral was exceptional due to the guides knowledge. His knowledge was 90% of the tour. Great job on his part
Our driver, Juan, was ready and waiting for us when we disembarked from our ship. Upon arrival to Seville, we were greeted by Antonio who guided us around this beautiful city. Antonio has a wonderful way of explaining history and how things came to be. (He also had a lot of funny stories to keep things interesting!) He took us to so many beautiful locations, and gave us the time to soak it all in. Upon the conclusion of our tour, Juan was there ready to take us back to the ship. This was a wonderful day spent in a beautiful city, and we are so glad we did it. Worth every penny!
Jose was our tour guide and was very nice. We were on a cruise, so they picked us up at the port and drove us to Seville for a private tour. The city of Seville was very beautiful and I highly recommend a visit.
The tour started out with a great driver (David) who was willing to give us small lessons in Spanish and tell us about the countryside we drove through. We met our tour guide Manuel who accommodated our needs (with my mobility-challenged father). He was so well educated about Seville and never failed to answer any questions we had as we did a comfortable walking tour through the City. The Catedral de Sevilla was awe-inspiring and no pictures do it justice. But the highlight of the tour for me was the Alcázar de Sevilla. The architecture is simply perfection. Manuel spoke easily and informatively about the architecture and the art, the iconicism of these two areas, and the history behind them. He even made time for us to have a cafe and enjoy some of the City feel. It was an amazing tour given the short time was had to spend in Seville.
We took this day trip from Cádiz to Seville.It was a well organised tour .The driver was on time to pick us up at Cádiz cruise terminal.the guide Mr Antonio was excellent and very knowledgeable.We had very nice trip.It was definitely very expensive as it was only two of us on a private tour .If it’s a group of for or six then probably will not cost so much
Eduardo, our bus driver, picked us up from the cruise terminal and drove us to Seville (approx 1 hr, 15 min) to meet up with our local tour guide Antonio. We went to the Plaza de Espana, which was very cool. Unfortunately, since it was a Sunday, we could not enter very far into the Catedral de Sevilla, just the front entrance area. We visited the Real Alcazar and Antonio gave us a nice guided tour of that and we walked around the Santa Cruz area. Antonio was very knowledgable and very informative, sharing various antedotes throughout the sites we visited.
Had a great tour of Seville with Antonio as our guide and Eduardo as our driver. We learned so much about the city, the culture and the sites we visited. Communication prior to the trip to arrange the tour was seamless. Would not hesitate to use them when we visit again.
We were picked up on time with a spacious car and very good driver. In Seville we were welcomed by Raquel, who brought us very competently closer to Seville. Highly recommended excursion!!
Great tour, everything well organized. Seville is definitely worth a visit. Very nice town. Mooie wijk, Santa.Cruz. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Passeio foi frustrante no sentido após chegarmos em sevilha , o motorista juan muitoooooooooo prestativo , pontual , porém o guia eduardo foi nos apresentado em sevilha no lugar de outra pessoa , o problema começou ai , o mesmo agia de forma autoritaria fazendo regras de tempo , querendo a todo tempo fazer seu roteiro , no caminho a pé resolvemos conhecer praça de touros o mesmo ficou incomodado determinando tempo de 20 minutos e queria cobrar 30 euros pela para e sua espera , absurdo mandar no nossoooooo passeio , posterior determinou 1 hora na catetral e tb no castelo , não aceitamos e dispensamos o mesmo , claramente queria cumprir horario nos dois lugares apenas e ir embora , a todo momento dizia que sua esposa o esperava para almoçar , enfim , o motorista juan nos levou a plaza espana a nosso pedido , não recomendaria por esses motivos frustante.
