Itinerary
On this tour you will visit one of the most important and emblematic palaces in the city, the home of the Duchess of Alba. Built with a marked Mudejar and Renaissance influence between the 15th and 16th centuries and taking its name from an adjoining monastery that preceded it, it has an ancient origin and is linked to illustrious names in the history of Spain such as the Pinedas, Casa Alba or even the great writer Antonio Machado. We will see both the art and the history that surrounds the building over the centuries. Our guides will explain, among other things, its noble origin, its temporary passage as a tenement house in the 19th century and we will visit some of its most representative rooms. Don't miss the opportunity to delight in the secrets and jewels that this building and its beautiful gardens treasure in the heart of the historic center of Seville.

It was a great tour of a very interesting palace. The tour guide gave a thorough background while intertwining current events into the history of the building. The staff was also flexible and accommodating to our needs.
Álvaro was an excellent guide. He is very knowledgeable and easy going. I give him a 10 out of 10! Luis A. Santos siulsotnas@aol.com El Paso, Texas
Serene and beautiful, an informed glimpse into the lives of nobility as you stroll through this gorgeous palace and its gardens.
A fantastic experience in the hands of our guide Manuela, where she explained in detail the entire history of the Palacio de Dueñas, showing us all its visitable rooms in detail.
Our guide María José was very kind at all times and explained everything wonderfully. The palace is beautiful and worth seeing

We did the tour with MariPaz Great, very enjoyable, kind, and professional.
Wonderful experience, I did not know the Palacio de las Dueñas and I really liked learning its history. The guide we were assigned (Mari Paz) contributed to making this experience wonderful.
Pleasant visit and the guide, Mary Paz, was kind and efficient.
We did the guided tour with M José and it was a wonderful experience. We loved her knowledge, enthusiasm, and way of conveying information. We will repeat without a doubt.
My partner and I loved the route. The best part of all was the guide, Mª José, attentive to us and answering our questions. Also, at the end she recommended interesting sites and places to eat. Without a doubt, I would repeat it again.
We never would have imagined that such a beautiful palace house existed in Seville, and it is not the only one either. María José the guide took us on a tour full of history and art with wonderful explanations. A ten for the guide and Naturanda
Wonderful tour conducted by Álvaro, enjoyable and very professional. We have learned a lot in the most didactic way.
Beautiful tour with Álvaro. You can tell he knows a lot… a history enthusiast. A genius
Very good tour and a fantastic explanation of everything with Alvaro
Álvaro is great I am much richer culturally because of the explanations I recommend it to you
Very good tour with Álvaro, very knowledgeable about the whole palace and the Albas, I loved it.
We were with the guide Álvaro, who welcomed us from the beginning and introduced us to everyone kindly; he also explained the whole history of the place to us from the start. His way of expressing himself and explaining everything naturally was the best experience 10.
The tour was guided by Álvaro, a wonderful visit in which, thanks to him, we were able to learn the history behind everything that appears in the palace and every room. It was so interesting that the time flew by. Thanks to this guy, it was enjoyable and we were able to learn all the history hidden behind every corner.
Enjoyable and well-documented visit by the guide, he provided us with good information and curiosities about the Palace and the Albas. Being a small group also made communication more fluid and the visit to the Palace was not as crowded as in other places.
Álvaro's explanations were very good, everything
We went to see the Palacio de las Dueñas in August and we loved it. Also, the guide, María José, explained everything very well to us and was very attentive
A highly recommended and essential visit to get to know another part of the cultural heritage. Sevillian. Our guide Álvaro was excellent, very knowledgeable about the place, and very pleasant. I would go with him again without hesitation.
Very beautiful Palace and an extraordinary explanation and kindness from the guide Alvaro.
A wonderful visit; Alvaro gave us an excellent explanation and clarified all our doubts. Alvaro is a great connoisseur of history and its details!!
The best visit to the Palace of Dueñas with the guide Alvaro
A very thorough visit to the Palace of the Dueñas, thanks to our guide, Julián! Mercè and Mariano
Good morning. We have visited with Naturanda, Julian being our guide. We loved it. He explained everything in great detail and in a very pleasant way. It is worth visiting with guides, especially if they are so prepared. Greetings and thank you very much.
Very professional guides her. And watch out
Amazing visit to the Palace and the guide has done great
We liked the guide through the great palace of Dueñas with Álvaro that has shown great historical knowledge and a lot of sympathy.
Visit with Alvaro to the palace. It was fantastic, made our visit very enjoyable. We have enjoyed and learned a lot
I really enjoyed the visit and the guide explained it in great detail and in a clear and entertaining way
Visiting the Dueñas Palace with Álvaro was, more than a tour, a brief foray into the memory of the place. With quiet scholarship and a way of narrating that seemed to open invisible doors, he turned every room into a story and every detail into a clue to the past. At the end of the visit, one suspects that the palace remains the same; but also that, thanks to Álvaro, it is now a little more infinite. Like any review, this is still a somewhat artificial construction: a few neat sentences after the experience. The visit, on the other hand, was simpler and more human: someone who knows a place well and knows how to tell it clearly.
Very interesting, Alvaro has explained everything very well
Very interesting visit, with Alvaro our guide who explained the whole tour very well
Alvaro has been lovely. We have delved into the entire history of this majestic palace, going through its beginnings to the present day, reviewing the history of one of the most relevant families in Spain. It has become very enjoyable and I have enjoyed! They were also fitting out the palace (with all the background noises that that entails) and at no time have I lost my thread and Alvaro has done everything possible to keep us in our little bubble of explanation! Thank you.
Highly recommended the tour we did with Álvaro, a very rewarding experience that I would definitely repeat again.
Álvaro has given us spectacular information, making a very pleasant visit.
My guide named Alvaro, he's been great. You didn't say it was his first time doing this great route.
Alvaro our guide, has been a real professional. It was his first time and the truth is that he explained it to us incredibly.
All spectacular. The guide Julian, the truth that spectacular, everything super well explained, many curiosities that we did not know and the visit was super enjoyable We will repeat again for sure
Beautiful place to discover always with guide that describes the ins and outs of each corner. Thanks to Mari Paz for her explanations
The visit to the Dueñas Palace was a wonderful experience. The place is stunning and full of history, but what really made the difference was our guide Julian. With great knowledge and passion he explained every detail, making the visit enjoyable and very enriching. In addition, their sympathy and closeness made us feel very comfortable throughout the tour.
Our guide, Manuela, was very educated in all the history and curiosities regarding the owner's house. The visit was very interesting. I really liked it.
