Tour Itinerary
Your journey begins in the enchanting Santa Cruz Quarter, Seville’s former Jewish neighborhood. As you stroll through its winding lanes, flower-filled courtyards, and charming plazas, your guide will reveal the stories behind one of Spain’s most picturesque districts.
Continue to the Royal Alcázar, Europe’s oldest royal palace still in use by the Spanish Royal Family. Originally constructed as a Muslim fortress before being transformed into a royal residence, the palace showcases extraordinary Mudéjar craftsmanship alongside Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque influences. Every courtyard, garden, and intricately decorated room reflects centuries of artistic achievement and royal tradition.
Next, visit the magnificent Seville Cathedral, built on the site of the city’s former mosque following the Christian reconquest. Today it stands as the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and is home to priceless works of art, impressive chapels, and the tomb traditionally attributed to Christopher Columbus.
Complete your visit with a climb to the top of the Giralda Tower. Originally constructed as the minaret of the Great Mosque, its innovative series of ramps—rather than stairs—once allowed riders on horseback to reach the summit. From above, enjoy breathtaking panoramic views across Seville’s historic skyline.
