Fantastic way to experience a whirlwind few hours to see the main highlights of Sevilla’s history and cultural centre. Juan our guide was excellent and extremely knowledgeable. What was supposed to be a 2 hour walking tour, ended up being 3.5 hours, as Juan was keen for us to see as much of Sevilla as possible. Could tell he was proud of the city he lives in, and justifiably so. Gracias Juan for an enjoyable walking tour.

Very comprehensive tour of the city covering all the major points of interest. Lots of walking, but they go at a comfortable pace always offering opportunities to rest, if needed.
An exceptionally good walking tour. Miguel clearly loves his city of Seville and seems to know it inside and out. I learnt so much about the architecture, the history, the myths and all about Don Juan. It was a pleasure to spend almost 3 hours with Miguel. Highly recommend this tour…
Our tour was amazing. The Tour Guide was super knowledgeable and could tell exactly what we wanted to see. He took us all around the city, giving us history lessons while showing us all of the important sites. He seem to really enjoy his job and loved entertaining us. We were with him for more than three hours in Seville and could not have been happier. We learned so much from him.
Francisco is a great guide. Local and has all the knowledge of Seville. Very accommodating and spoke great English. Went over our contracted time with no issue or pressure to finish. Great private tour.
Our guide was wonderful! He shared stories about the history of Seville and brought the city to life. The tour runs longer than the allotted time, so keep that in mind when booking. Highly recommend and do a walking tour at the start of your trip.
Really amazing introduction to this beautiful city! Francisco was a wonderful guide who gave us the history and interesting information in such a friendly manner, making sure we saw all the main highlights as well as showing us in detail on the map lots of his favourite recommendations. Highly recommend this brilliant tour to get your bearings and get all the main highlights during your stay! Thank you Francisco!
This tour is a great introduction to Seville and helps you get oriented in the city. There are maps available in the office (meeting place) and your guide can show you where you’ll be going, as well as suggest places to visit on your own. My guide was friendly, personable and knowledgeable about the history of Seville and the places we visited. He made sure I was aware of opportunities to use a restroom (difficult to find public restrooms here). He brought some snacks to share; we also stopped at an upscale candy store where I bought seeds and sampled a chocolate. The tour is 3 hours and you walk at a good clip the entire time. There are pavement, dirt, and cobblestone surfaces, so the ground underfoot is frequently uneven. There are also some stairs, but most are optional. Sturdy shoes are a must.
Incredible experience. Awesome guide. Guide was knowledgeable and engaging and made the e tour enjoyable and informative.
Our guide was excellent. Customized our trip perfectly for us. Was very knowledgeable. He went above and beyond what was needed.
An absolute must-do tour! I had a fantastic tour with local guide Miguel, who was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also funny and clearly passionate about his city. He brought the history and culture to life and shared loads of interesting stories, along with some brilliant hidden gems I’d never have found on my own. I was really lucky that no one else had booked, so it ended up being like a private tour — many companies would have cancelled, but not this one! Miguel also gave great recommendations for the best local spots to eat and drink, which really rounded off the experience perfectly. We made plenty of stops to take in the sights, snap photos, and chat about the city’s history. If you want to get your bearings, learn heaps, and see the city through the eyes of someone who truly loves it — don’t think twice, just book this tour!
Great tour guide that took us to see all the great spots. He was very knowledgeable. It was a great tour. Well worth the price.
We saw many historical sites and Francisco was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Highly recommend to get to know Seville.
The tour was very informative formative and friendly. You get to see a lot of sites and can be custom tailored
Miguel was a great communicator and very enthusiastic about the tour. We enjoyed listening and talking with him.
A well-paced look at some of the hidden parts of Seville. This walk was a great complement to our yours of the Cayhedrsl and Alcazar, providing the context and a more informal take on the history of Seville.
Miguel, our guide, had so much knowledge of the city and it’s intriguing history that made our tour wonderfull. We got a rich insight into the key locations of this beautiful city but also the stories and context that bring that history to life. I don’t think you could discover this on your own. A fantastic introduction to a beautiful city that we will remember forever. Thankyou Miguel you are a brilliant guide.
We had a most enjoyable time exploring parts of historic Seville with our guide Luis. He was terrific - gave us so much information and was so receptive to our curiosity- we peppered him with questions as we shared our observations. We discussed history, also movies and books related to Spanish history and notable people. Put on your walking shoes and sign up for this tour! Highly recommend!
Danielle was a great guide who made us very comfortable. He took keen Interest on our needs and expectations and ensured that he designed the walking tour accordingly. He has a wonderful ear for history and culture and ensured that he regaled us with lots of stories and anecdotes from the past. Truly enjoyable and recommended.
