Very informative tour - Lara was a great tour guide! She was very knowledgeable and super sweet. She answered questions and explained everything. We were a small group and that made it even better. A few of us even ended up spending the afternoon together afterwards. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Essential tour of Jewish history in Sevilla - We learned so much from our tour guide, especially things we would never have discovered on our own. There is a lot of complex history in Sevilla, particularly for Jewish citizens, and this tour brought much of it to life. Our guide was very patient with all our questions and very easy to understand. It was a wonderful tour!

Awesome tour with awesome tour guide! - This was an amazing tour—our tour guide, Julio, took us around Santa Cruz and gave us so many little interesting facts while also telling us about the overall Jewish history in Sevilla. Julio was super attentive, kept us engaged, and spoke about the non-Jewish history of the town as well. The tour was a bit over an hour long, and we would highly recommend doing this tour.

Jewish historical neighborhood, imagined. - Julio is a knowledgeable guide. There isn’t much left of Jewish historical artifacts, due to various pogroms and other anti-Semitic movements over the centuries. He gave a good description of the previous neighborhood and streets, explaining the movement of the populace and inhabitants.
