Our tour guide Angeles was very informative, funny and knowledgeable about the area. She provided us with a array of stories, fun facts and historical information. We throughly enjoyed our trip and would definitely recommend.
Don’t expect a “ghost tour”. Historical/Haunted History is how it’s billed, it’s just really some random history, nothing special. Guide was nice, not over the top knowledgeable by any means.
Booked last minute and photo of meeting place and directions very clear Our guide Angeles (?) very welcoming and knowledgeable It was a small group and pace good for all ( we are in our 60s ) We learnt a lot about characters and the history of Seville and Angeles very honest about the history- she showed us areas and things we never would have found ourselves and brought Seville history to life for us Great value and very informative- thank you
Trip cancelled by operator day before. So although the tour round Jewish quarter was good it was not what we booked.
Great way to explore the city, all the nooks and crannies of the city. Some haunting stories, but not as many as expected! Alba did a great job of bringing the history to life, but her English was a little hard to follow at times!
What an amazing tour! M. Angeles was so knowledgeable and fun.
Nieves was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. She had so many stories and showed me interesting hidden areas that you wouldn’t know existed in such a winding web of paths. Her English was awesome and answered all the questions I had. I would highly recommend this tour.
We got called to come an hour earlier which was fine but what they didn’t say is that we got a different tour. Instead of the haunted tour we did a Jewish history tour, something that was absolutely not something we wanted to do. We reached out and got offered a new date for our original, but two weeks later. Since we were leaving the day after we couldn’t use it. I requested my money back but haven’t had a response in a few days so not great experience.
Antonio Javier was the guide, and we tourists spoke English and Italian. He was extremely fluent in both and said he spoke six or eight languages. He was born and brought up in Seville and clearly loves this extraordinary city. He was energetic, enthusiastic, and could answer all questions. Sometimes guides seem bored, but not this one. I really appreciated the tour and will be going back for another tour to Cadiz tomorrow
This was the worst walking tour we’ve ever been on. The guide smoked and we had to walk in the waft of his smoke. He walked so fast and gave us no time to look at the site or take photos. Every one in the group had a good fitness level and it was still too fast. If you did stop to take a photo you had to run to catch up. I asked him to slow down but he didn’t. I pointed out that this was the first time all of us had seen these sites and that we needed a moment to take them in but that was lost on him. He’d go from one stop to the next and was already talking by the time most of the group arrived and so we missed half of everything he was telling us about. He seemed anxious to get it over with. Just a complete waste of our time
Discovered a part of the city we had not seen yet even after staying 3 days already. Don’t hesitate. Go for it.
Our guide Carlos gave us plenty of info.It was a hot evening but he made it very interesting .He took us to the hidden corners of Santa Cruz and enriched the experience with full of stories.Thanks a lot
Karlos was an amazing guide!!! He was great with questions and very knowledgeable. He definitely deserves a raise!!!!
Karlos was an entertaining and knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed it and learnt a lot about the city. We would recommend. 👍👍
Karlos was really super super good I loved his commentary on everything thank him for the tour and give him a raise👍👍👍
Highlight of my trip, so interesting and Alba is a great storyteller! So cool. Would do it again, def recommend!
Because of a nationwide power outage and our train to Seville running late, we weren’t able to take the Alcázar Tour we had booked. Instead, we booked the Seville Haunted Tour so that we would get to see a bit of Seville during our one-day stay there. Within a few minutes of meeting our tour guide, Álvaro, we knew we would be in for a fun tour. Álvaro was funny and engaging as he led us through the narrow streets, and even some hidden passages through attached buildings, of what he described as the “real” Jewish Quarter of Seville. The tour was less about haunts and more about uncovering the remnants of the old neighborhoods that pointed to a vibrant Jewish community that was eventually done in by the Inquisition. Álvaro was an excellent story teller and really made the tour thoroughly informative and enjoyable.
The tour was great and Emilio adapted the walk for what we were interested in. He was great at making it engaging and working with adults who knew a lot of history and a 13 year old who did not. Thank you!
Alberto was very engaging and friendly. We had been in the city for three days but his storytelling gave the city so much more life and told us stories we would have never known. Highly recommend!
I had a wonderful time, the tour was a nice mix of history and legend. Our guide Rebeca, was very nice & knowledgeable, she took us down some charming streets I would have never found. Two thumbs up!
Oh my gosh this was so good and we had so much fun. Best tour ever. Our guide was super fun and he spoke excellent English. I mean excellent so we had no issues at all in understanding him. One of the best. We loved it and wished it was longer with more areas. Ivan not Juan was super
On the website, the tour is in English and appears as if it its in English. The form you complete is in English, which gives you the assumption it is in English speaking tour. We waited outside in the pouring rain for the guide, only to be told once she got there that the tour was in Spanish. We don't speak Spanish, so that's a problem. They said they sent us a text on WhatsApp informing us that was in Spanish, and they did, but the text was in Spanish! and we did not have access to Google translator since we are outside and did not have Wi-Fi access so we had no idea what the text said. So that wasn't helpful in this slightest.
I did write a detailed review but Trip Advisor didn't upload. It was a small tour with our guide Emilio and 2 young American ladies and myself. Emilio was very passionate about the history of the city and would try to provide the historical accuracy alongside the myths and legends. It was a fun tour, with a great overview of the city in just over 2 hours and I could've walked further despite doing a marathon 2 days earlier. Spookily one of my photos came out weird.
Interesting and informative walking your, however they should be more specific regarding the meeting point as it only said Plaza del Triunfo, apparently the Spanish bookings added under the statue but English bookings didn’t have that, still I found Emilio and the group and enjoyed visiting squares that I never knew existed. Emilio kept the conversation interesting and funny so it kept everyone engaged.
We had a tour with Emilio, absolutely loved the tour!! He was passionate and painted a picturesque story related to all the legends of España Sivelle. Thanks so much for a memorable tour!!!
Emilio kept us all engaged with many interesting stories of Seville's history. His delivery included a mix of sad, funny, and haunting tales - both legends and verified history. The time flew. Would thoroughly recommend.
Alba was a great guide She shared a lot of good historical stories that we enjoyed. She made sure no one got lost and her english was very good and easy to understand.
This was, first and foremost, a history tour, with a sprinking of ghost story peppered in. The guide was super knowledgeable and super passionate about what she did - which shined through and made the tour very interesting (Remember 1248 - she will ask you for that date a lot!). I love history, but I think I was hoping for a bit more haunted/ghost stories for my partner and I can tell the sentiment was shared among others in the group as well. Another thing was that I felt that we moved at a pretty good pace - not a lot occured that slowed down us moving from location to location or the guide's presentation - but we ended half an hour late. While of course you are free to go if you need/want to, and one can even view this as a boon in that you received "more" than what you paid for, the guide made it appear as if all that content was not extra but meat to be included in the original tour - I can't imagine how fast we would have had to move if all that was supposed to get done in the original time. So I think either extending the advertised time of the tour or streamlining it would make more sense. Seville is a great city with an interesting history that difffers significantly from other popular cities in Spain, such as Madrid and Barcelona. If you woud like to hear about its founding to the Muslim conquest and then Christian takeover, as well as fun tidbits on the Jewish quarter and secret spots around the city, suggest this tour. Just don't have a dinner reservation planned for right after.
We had the best time last night with Emilio. His conviviality made the group of strangers into a group of friends. His knowledge of the subjects was shared in an easy manner. His mastery of English allowed us all to understand the interesting stories he told us. We are so glad that we chose this tour. It was a delightful evening.
Wrong meeting point was given. Guide was unwilling to give me the location of the next stop on the tour. She would only give me their current location. I spent 45 minute of a 2 hour tour trying to catch up. I gave up and went back to the hotel.
Emilio did an excellent job blending his knowledge of Spanish history with the myths and legends of Sevilla including Don Juan and others. As we walked the streets of the Barrio Santa Cruz neighborhood, he took factual accounts from history and weaved them into the Sevilla mythology. Whether fact or not, Emilio let us be the judge. Regardless, we were thoroughly entertained for 2+ hours and our understanding of Sevilla history and lore is much improved thanks to Emilio.
Last two weeks we enjoyed a wonderful tour (in English) of Seville with Giovanna and Nieves. The stories they told us were fascinating and our Swiss, German and Austrian companions were amazed by the history of Seville and the legends that surround it.
What a brilliant evening with Emilio our guide! Excellent knowledge of historical legends and stories mixed with really interesting facts. This was the perfect way to see parts of the city we would otherwise never have found. Emilio made sure to include everyone as there was a real mix of people/ages in the group. Would highly recommend 👌.
We had a great private tour and our guide Barbara from Seville was an expert about the history of Seville and its Jewish quarters. She had many interesting stories about different parts of the neighbourhood. It was a great insight into the past and how things unfolded over 600 years ago in Seville. Thanks!!
Do not mark this as wheelchair friendly when it most certainly is not! Lots of kerbs and cobbles. However the actual tour was interesting and informative and our guide Nieves certainly knew her stuff. If you can walk would highly recommended, if you are in a wheelchair don’t do it
The tour is a great chance to visit the city center of Seville at the sunset. Julian was a great guide mixing historical facts with legends and even ghost tales. You start walking admiring the city center and finish looking for a ghost to appear
We had a great time learning about the mysteries of Seville. Our knowledgeable guide, Laura, effortlessly navigated us through the old town and told us great stories along the way. It is a great way to spend an evening.
Our guide was fantastic and the stories were fun to hear. My friend and I had a great time. It was at times difficult to hear since our group was large and we didn’t have any headsets.
I did this tour with my Sevillano in-laws last night and we all had a great time! The tour was very interesting and our guide, Jesus, was awesome! He is a historian and had tons and tons of information in addition to the regular tour info. He was hilarious and really made the tour super fun, and you can tell he really enjoys giving the tours and sharing his knowledge about Seville. I highly recommend asking to join Jesus’s tour when you book this, and it is absolutely worth the €10! He even recommended some places for dinner to those who asked after the tour was over.
We hired a walking tour "Enchanted Seville", and everything was great. We were a group of 22 of students of English of different levels! The guide Cristina Osuna was very good, patient and didactic. She adapted her pleasant explanations to the group perfectly well. She took her time to make them clear, interesting, and fun. Not only was the tour guide excellent but also the organization of the visit with very little time in advance. I highly recommend Naturanda and especially her. Thank you indeed
This is a really fun way of getting to know the city. Monica was our guide and did an splendid job!! Most of the tour is about the history of Sevilla with just a splash of the supernatural which is highly entertaining and also it tells a lot about the culture and traditions of the place. The 2 hours go by really fast and you get to walk in the narrowest and most intricate streets you'll find around here.
Muy recomendable María José… interesante conocer diferentes barrios de Sevilla
Maria José ha sido espectacular en todo el recorrido
Maravillosa experiencia, aprendimos y disfrutamos muchísimo con Maria José.
Me ha fascinado !! Repetiría, M Jose es un encanto !!! Gracias de verdad, estoy súper contenta
Special thanks to our guide. Maria José, very attentive at all times with the group
A very pleasant afternoon/evening, full of well-founded stories and a mix of legends. Emilio, a great professional who knew how to lead the group at all times.
We had a great time, Emilio was a very good guide, he explained everything very well with a lot of interest in making sure we understood everything, pleasant and entertaining, we will repeat and we will definitely recommend it.
Maria Jose is an exceptional guide, fun, with a lot of knowledge. Charming, approachable. The tour felt short to me because of how enjoyable it was. Totally recommended
