Very informative and interesting tour. The guide answered our questions and showed us everything. The palace was great.

Completely fascinating! We got a great introduction to Seville, and guide Rosa's histories and information were incredibly interesting to our entire family.
Today we had a wonderful private tour in Seville, visiting the Cathedral and the Real Alcázar. Our guide, Raquel, was exceptional; knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly kind throughout the tour. She answered all of our questions with patience and expertise, making the history and significance of each site easy to understand and appreciate. What we particularly appreciated was her ability to provide just the right amount of information: enough to bring the monuments to life without overwhelming us with details. Thanks to her clear explanations and storytelling, we came away having learned a great deal and, more importantly, remembering it. Raquel's enthusiasm and professionalism made the experience truly memorable. We highly recommend this tour and especially Raquel to anyone visiting Seville and wanting an informative, enjoyable, and enriching experience.
We had a wonderful tour. Susanne was engaging and knowledgeable. Fantastic
We had a wonderful experience on our short visit to Seville, thanks to this well-organized tour. Our guide, Filippo, was fantastic – knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. He shared fascinating information about the city’s history, especially about the Real Alcázar and the Cathedral. Due to limited time, we chose not to enter the Cathedral, but Filippo still gave us a great overview and walked us around the city, making the most of our stop. We visited the Real Alcázar, which was stunning, and appreciated the insight Filippo provided throughout. Highly recommended! Just a note to future travelers: tickets are not included in the tour price, so be sure to book your entry tickets and time slots separately and make sure they align with the tour schedule. I was also contacted in advance by both the office and the guide, which helped everything run smoothly.
Elena was an amazing, knowledgeable, engaging, and fun tour guide! She customized the time we spent at each site according to our preferences and spent a little extra time with us, too.
We had an amazing experience with Moses, our tour guide. He was knowledgeable, funny, and engaged our whole family which is hard to do with 2 teenagers! We learned a ton and would love to use this company in the future if we ever come back to Seville. Well worth it!
Our guide was definitely no longer interested in guiding. He also gave way too many personal anecdotes and random stories about history that had nothing to do with the tours we were on. He also rushed us through the Alcazar.
Excellent experience. Susanna was great and incredibly knowledgeable of Seville, the sights and the history. It is the second time that I do a tour with her and would recommend anytime.
The tour guide was very knowledgeable, nice, and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this tour and guide to anybody.
My wife and I enjoyed the time we spent with our guide, Susana, and in the process learned so much about the history and heritage of Sevilla. Susana was very knowledgeable and super-friendly. The time we spent greatly enhanced the enjoyment of our trip and we now have memories that will last a lifetime! Take our advice and invest in your vacation. You will have many happy returns!
We we're able to book Suzanna on very short notice, and we are so glad we did! Not only did she make two of Seville's top sights come alive, she made long lines and internet pre-purchase ticketing problems disappear. With the limited time we had to visit this beautiful city, it was well worth the cost to spend less time waiting in hot lines and more time enjoying the sights. More importantly, Suzanna's upbeat personality made our 3 hour tour wiz by, and when we parted we were in an even better mood than when we arrived. Highly recommend if you can allocate the funds for a private experience.
This is pretty good value for the money if you have 5 or more people or don’t like crowds and like to be able to hear the guide. Our guide - Moises - knew a lot about Seville and overall history of the Iberian peninsula. He also did a great job connecting with our 11 year old daughter and 14-year old son. We did a bunch of group tours on this trip and felt the extra money was worth it. When getting this tour do note that tickets to both Alcazar and Cathedral are not included in the tour price. Overall - highly recommended.
We very much enjoyed our private tour of Seville. The history our guide provided for us made the visit to the Alcazar and the Cathedral all the more enjoyable. The kids were riveted too!
Our family of 3 had the best individual guided tour of the Alcazar and Cathedral. Jorge collected us from our hotel and off we set on a fascinating tour. We could not have asked for a better guide. He was both informative, funny and theatrical! He clearly loves his city and we can see why. This tour was really excellent and would most definitely recommend it to anyone.
We were in Seville during Semana Santa and wanted to be sure to hit the historical highlights during our 2 day stay. I coordinated with Susana through email to schedule a time to tour both the cathedral and Alcazar. Unfortunately, as it does happen during Semana Santa, the cathedral changed its schedule prior to our arrival. Jorge met us at our hotel and quickly began and engaging experience of Seville and the Alcazar. His story telling kept my children (age 12 and 15) engaged and interested. The architecture of the Alcazar is wonderfully beautiful. Jorge has some interesting knowledge of movies filmed at the Alcazar and provided some very interesting stories. He was very welcoming and was sure to find something interesting. He casually walked us through the Alcazar and the gardens and we finished walking through the Jewish Quarter back to our hotel. Similarly, he provided some wonderful stories to provide some context to our children and made the tour feel personal. We did not feel rushed nor was it paced too slowly. Just the right balance. Jorge was a wealth of knowledge and we enjoyed asking follow up questions which he always had a great response. I was very happy to have found this tour agency and would highly recommend them. Our private family tour was the right start for a magical time in Seville during Semana Santa. Regarding the cathedral tour, Susana helped us navigate acquiring tickets on our own another time that was convenient to our schedule. They also made some other great recommendations for us. Overall very happy to tour with them!
Our family of 5 had an unforgettable walking tour with Daniel. He met us at our hotel and led us to the Alcazar and Cathedral. He shared his wealth of knowledge of Spanish history and culture in a very pleasant and friendly manner. Every minute of the tour was very interesting, and it was so nice not to have to join the long lines of tourists waiting for entrance tickets to both of these sites. Economically, this is an excellent tour to book for a group of this size. Everyone loved it. I highly recommend reserving this tour with Daniel.
We had a guided tour in the Cathedral and the palace with Jorge Gomez and we had such a good time. A great guide with a great love for his city and could tell about it on a very lively way!
<p>My family and I had a wonderful time exploring Seville with our guide, Jorge. Jorge met us at the Alcazar entrance and decided to start our tour with the Cathedral. Both attractions were crowded, but having Jorge with us granted us faster entry. The cathedral is amazing, and Jorge did a fantastic job pointing out the most interesting parts and facts. Then we went to the Alcazar, which is beautiful as well. Again, Jorge guided us through the palace, providing interesting information. He made sure our children 10, 13 were engaged and made it fun for them. We finished the tour exploring the Jewish quarter. I would recommend this tour!</p>
Elena arrived on time at our hotel. She was warm and friendly. We toured the Jewish quarter and skipped the long lines at the Cathedral and Alcazar (when you see how long the lines are you will be happy you booked a tour). Elena’s English is very good and her command of historical information was impressive. She also took many photos of us which was an added bonus.
<p>Our guide Raquel was fantastic. She arrived promptly at our hotel and we walked to our destination. She was so informative and passionate about Seville, it was a great learning experience. She gave us recommendations for the rest of our stay as well. It involves a lot of walking but so worth it.</p>
The guide Susanna was great and friendly.
Unique hope with yaw in Italian
We visited the cathedral and the giralda, the guide explained everything perfectly without boring and entertained the audience very well. It was very precise and allowed to understand in a simple way from history to works of art. 100% approved
We are a young couple interested in knowing Seville, and there is no better way to have done it than with the help of Jorge, a person enthusiastic about his work, cultured and helpful. In hard times with COVID and a lot of heat we have not been able to have a better time and learn more in an individualized way especially for us. We went to the Alcazar and the Cathedral, just amazing. Culture is for everyone and we are so happy to have learned thanks to you, Jorge! PS: and thanks for the pictures hehe
First I swallowed a little, because it's expensive. The entrance Alcazar is added. Every penny was worth it! Our guide was fantastic. It was great not to push yourself through the aisles with the other groups. Thank you for this great tour. We'll think about it for a long time
We bought the Italian tour to Acazar Cathedral and Giralda, the meeting point is easily located in Piazza del Triunfo, our guide was Moraima a very nice and prepared girl; she accompanied us to the cathedral explaining very well what we were visiting telling us anecdotes; she speaks very good Italian. After a stop we continued with the visit of the fabulous Alcazar, to say wonderful is little!! Also here a nice walk explaining the different styles of the palace; unfortunately the giralda was closed for restoration and we were made the partial price of the ticket (very correct)! We highly recommend this visit with priority access , the queues were very long! Birthday Celebrated Big Under the Blue Sky of Seville... and Moraima also tops for restaurant recommendations
Given the excellent reviews, we decided to rely on Elena and I must say that she did not exceed our expectations. He is a professional, competent and nice guide. He gave us historical but also curious information about one of the most famous buildings in Seville: the Alcazar. He told us about the smells and candles that lit up the building, making us live for a while within its walls. Did you know that craftsmen put their signatures on azulejos? Well if you want to find out where they are hiding visit the Alcazar with Elena.
When you choose to fully enjoy a city, you can't help but take a guide. Then the task gets complicated... who will be able to keep up the expectations and give you the emotions of the history and traditions of a city! The web is full of them and honestly I happened to be disappointed. But not this time! I was lucky enough to find Elena! A real Sevillena! His Italian is perfect and the love he puts into his work you can feel everything! It is a prepared guide which means that you can not get bored with it, because it captures you and transports you to the Middle Ages among the workers of the cathedral, between the tuff stones and the high pillars. The stained glass windows speak and the statues come alive in their baroque theatricality. Hours spent with Elena fly by and at the end of the tour you feel enriched. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and passion with us.
With 4 adults a tour of Alcázar and the Cathedral . George was a very sweet, nice man who could tell this a lot about everything, combined with nice ‘sketches’. We really enjoyed it and learned a lot from it. Highly recommended: ask George!
<p>el guia un autentico profesional,muy recomendable</p>
