Carriage tour - A very pleasant time to discover Seville and its architectural gems. Only regret: Too bad the driver of the carriage doesn't speak French

Good horse welfare and an enjoyable way to see the city - Having been around horses since I was a small child, I'm always very sceptical of horse drawn carriage rides around cities when travelling overseas due to horse welfare concerns and will only support them if I see a good standard of welfare. I was really pleased to see how well cared for the carriage horses in Seville are. They had plenty of shade at the cab stands and there are special water points installed where buckets can be filled for them to have a drink. The horse on our carriage was well groomed, wearing correctly fitting harness and looked fit for his job. He trotted along through the Park with his ears pricked, clearly interested in his surroundings and happy in his job. The driver's whip use was what I would expect. I do carriage driving at home as a competitive sport, so I know that gently touching with the whip is a necessary communication aid because you don't have the use of your legs like on a ridden horse. It should never be used as a punishment. Our driver clearly knew this too, which was pleasing to see. We went early in the morning when it was cool, so to minimise the impact on the horse. My only concern is that I hope all horses get a proper siesta when the heat peaks. But otherwise, it was a highlight of our trip. It's a great way to see the city and especially the Plaza De Espana and Park Maria Luisa, which are ideal for driving because they are wide and flat with lots of shade from the trees.

Travel Agent Review - Jun 2023 - The ride was really nice and peaceful. Our driver didnt speak English though and the only words he knew were the names of the landmarks we rode by. He pointed them out, said the name, then said “very nice” to almost every one. Giving it 3 stars because he did show up right on time, did provide a cute and comfortable horse + carriage, and was nice enough to take our picture! Probably wouldnt do this again since we didnt benefit from an actual “tour” of learning anything.

Chaotic - We arrived at the meeting point and waited for about 15 minutes- no one arrived. We called and after some difficulty our reservation was found. A carriage finally arrived and we had an abbreviated ride which was very nice but the experience was not smooth.

Heartbreaking - Completely Heartbreaking! I witnessed a lame horse being whipped to pull a carriage of 4 around Seville in blistering heat. These poor horses go up and down hour after hour, day after day, probably year after year. Often times they look malnourished and exhausted. Just last year a horse collapsed and dropped dead in the middle of the street. How can people continue to support this?

Not to do - Not to do when you love animals. Horses suffer from doing the same routes all day, on asphalt or cobblestones. I can't even imagine summer... Stop animal abuse.

A sad sight - The sight of all the carriage horses all around the city is a sad sight and we wouldn't dream of going for a ride. We saw the drives take good care of the carriage, but never did we see any offering their horse water, food or a friendly touch. The horses seem apathetic and without any spirit. I hope someone is smart enough to find a modern way of letting tourists meet these amazing animals with their welfare in focus. I would pay for that.

Absolutely avoid! - Warning: scam!!! The ride was supposed to last 45 minutes to an hour (45 euros). It only lasted barely 25 minutes. An uninteresting journey (fortunately we had visited Seville on foot the two previous days. This carriage ride was planned before leaving to take the plane phew, did a last tour of the city). A rather unpleasant driver. It was the only disappointment of this magical city. I hope my opinion will dissuade some people from wasting their money unnecessarily!

Very bad, abuse of the animal - I don't understand how they have the horses running around all day without drinking at 45 degrees pulling a cart with so much weight, the city council must stop this, there are other means such as trains or strollers to ride tourists and not mistreat an animal that cannot be defended

Please do not use horse-drawn carriages - Please do not use the horse-drawn carriages as a way to tour Seville. I recently visited Seville and was sad to see horses being made to work long days in 40 degrees of heat with limited water and no food that I saw. The horses do not receive breaks from their tight harnesses which must be extremely uncomfortable in extreme heat. Please do not contribute to the mistreatment of animals whilst on your holiday.
