Seville Walking Tour

Tour Description

Romantic, beautiful, mystic are a few words that come to mind when describing Seville. In our Seville Walking Tour, we will provide an overview of the vast history starting with the Romans to the present day.  Your local guide will share with you an inside look with a historic overview, and get into more detail about the most important neighborhoods like Barrio de Santa Cruz, the old Jewish neighborhood, and also those monuments that you will want to return to for a more in depth visit.

During our Seville Walking Tour we will expose you to the unmatched warmth and sense of humor from the locals.  Seville´s moorish past will be illustrated as we navigate through the winding streets that twist and turn throughout the city creating an intricate maze of passages holding legends of centuries past and distinct architecture unique to the region of Andalucia. We will discuss the two major celebratory events that happen in this city from Semana Santa to the Feria........We will view the daunting Gothic Cathedral from the outside and walk along the famous Guadalquivir river, admiring the Torre de Oro, Tower of Gold where literally all the discoveries and riches from the New World were registered.  This is just the beginning.  Our guide will give you great orientation and you will love going back to explore on your own.

      Let us guide you through this enchanting city with its beautiful monuments and tile work. Re-live the glory days of the exploration period when Seville was booming with the new discoveries from the Americas. You'll be impressed by its daunting Cathedral, featuring Columbus' burial site, and the bougainvillea-covered walls, patios of the charming Santa Cruz neighborhood, the former Jewish quarter, where every tiny street has a story to tell. Strategically located on the Guadalquivir river, Seville served as the main port of entry for the wealth from the New World and became the Venice of the 17th Century. The Cathedral, the third largest Gothic structure in Europe, and the Moorish Alcazar Palace are just two of Seville's many amazing sites. The picturesque Barrio Santa Cruz, offers a great variety of terraces for dining under the fragrant orange trees.  You can also, check out Triana neighborhood offers one of the best tapas scenes in the region. Our tour will expose you to all of this and introduce you to the history and the story of Seville along with some of the older traditions even dating before Columbus.

      This tour does not go into any sights, although you will be viewing them from the outside. Later you can explore them on your own or by request, our guide´s can accompany you in. Please inquire. This tour is designed to introduce you to some of the more colorful ¨barrios¨ or neighborhoods, that alone hold tremendous history. There are lots of stories to tell and your guide´s expert navigation will eliminate all of your doubts of getting around on your own later. They will introduce you to some great little bars and restaurants that you will surely want to go back to along with sweet little churches and not to miss monuments and museums along the way.
