Tour Summary
Seville is a city bursting with history and brimming with colour – it is truly one of Europe’s most beautiful destinations. Every corner has a picture-postcard scene of archetypal Spanish life. The influx of New World wealth in the 16th and 17th centuries transformed Seville into the richest city in the world.
Wonder at the world’s largest Gothic cathedral home to Christopher Columbus’s tomb and with the impressive Giralda tower.
Explore the oldest functioning royal palace in Europe (Alcazar) before heading to lunch.
In the quiet of the afternoon wander the maze of the former Jewish quarter of Santa Cruz with its 12th century and symbolic buildings, such as the General Archive of the Indies and the Hospital of the Venerable.
The natives of Seville take great pride in their home and are very welcoming and warm hosts. Seville’s international profile has been raised considerably as scenes of Game of Thrones were filmed within the walls of the Alcazar (Royal Palace) and fans are flocking there from around the globe.
On our Classic Seville Tour, you can choose to visit the first two monuments with an audio guide or hire a local guide (extra cost) for a more in-depth visit.
