A great introduction and orientation to Seville - We took the tour at 7:00 pm which proved to be just right for it being a very small group and the evening was very pleasant. Even after a day of travelling from Barcelona, we were glad that we did the tour then as a great introduction and orientation to the city. Manuel was exceptionally knowledgeable and informative! We thoroughly recommend this tour!
