Best tour of our trip- left us wanting to return to see more of Seville! - Had an excellent tour with Nico who was so knowledgeable and professional- he made our journey through the streets exceptionally great. He was by far the guide with the most historical knowledge on our trip to Spain. More than that- he clearly loves his city and was great in conveying all there is to love to us- he had an extensive amount of information on not just the history but also took the time to show us all the hidden gems in the sights- from pointing out the sheer beauty of the various parks and commenting on the way the light changed and was highlighted by the architecture.

Seville walking tour - I had a two-hour private walking tour in Seville with Abby. Abby was an amazing tour guide, friendly, open, and knowledgeable. She shared her knowledge of Andalusian culture and history with passion and was fun to walk around the city with her. She makes you feel more like a friend than a client. Thank you Abby for the beautiful experience.

The best introduction to Seville - We enjoyed a 4 hour walking tour of Seville with Abby - well actually it was nearly 5 hours (hope her boss doesn't read this!)
Abby was so knowledgeable and passionate about Seville and so personable. Our walking tour was on the first day of our holiday. Without Abby's knowledge we would not have enjoyed our holiday so much. For the remainder of our holiday we both repeated Abby's words so often.
We saw other walking tours with 20+ people with headphones. Our tour was intimate with Abby talking to us directly.
The walking tour and Abby was one of the highlights of our holiday in Seville.

Great intro to Seville - Excellent introduction to Seville for me, my wife, and young daughter on our first full day in the city. Juanjo met us promptly in front of the Alcazar and within a few minutes was walking us through the royal palace while talking about its history. He tells the story of the palace and the city in good detail and answered our questions well, including some left-field ones from our 9 year old. Afterwards, he walked us around the old city center, Plaza Espana, and by the riverside, all the while engaging us in conversation about a city he knows well and cares for. When we finished, he recommended a good restaurant near the Las Setas, where we headed to after the tour.

Great walking tour! - Fantastic private walking tour led by Abby. Sarah, who has been helping us with our bookings also joined, so an easy to handle . foursome. Jane and I were delighted with the variety, the insights and the history. Abby knew a lot of the architecture stories and Sarah filled in any gaps with interesting tidbits. Both are passionate about Seville, its people and its history. Started in Plaza Nuevo, wandered through the grounds around the Seville Cathedral, the Royal Alcázar of Seville into Santa Cruz and the Old Jewish quarter. Then headed through the palace gardens to Plaza de España, which is still an amazing structure. From there we headed along the river to a great market with tons of restaurant choices. Mercado Lonja del Barranco. Time for a glass of wine or two and a bite. Great day, very enjoyable, would highly recommend.

Excellent Overview of Seville - Our guide, Bastion, was terrific. By showing us various sites, he covered the high points of the history of Seville, from its inception to present day. And he pointed out things an average tourist would never see like the old warehouses used to store goods when Seville was a major port. Highly recommended!

Seville Tour & Pickup from Lagos, Portugal - This company is incredible! Mahsa emailed me promptly and was very professional and kind with her service. I arranged for a driver from Lagos Portugal to Seville, Spain (2.5 hours) so that I could get the opportunity to see both countries in my short vacation.
The driver was punctual and professional.
Alba was my tour guide in Seville. She was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She took pictures for me and made sure I got to see everything on my list plus more (she made some gray suggestions). I am so grateful for this company for making my trip so amazing! I would not hesitate to use them again!
