A very positive experience, with an Italian-speaking guide dedicated to our group of four. We started by climbing the Giralda via its 34 flights of stairs, enjoying a priceless view of all of Seville. Immediately afterward, we immersed ourselves in the Cathedral with a truly knowledgeable, passionate Italian-speaking guide who paid close attention to every detail. She helped us discover the history and secrets of the chapels, the halls, the magnificent High Altar, and the choir. It was fascinating to learn that the Cathedral houses the tombs of Christopher Columbus and his son. I highly recommend this experience for anyone who wants to fully appreciate this monument without missing a thing.

The guide was very passionate and elaborate and we learned a lot of facts. It was great that we accessed parts of the cathedral that were not accessible otherwise. Thanks for a great tour!!!

This visit to the Seville Cathedral & La Giralda was on of the most incrediable experience of my life. The Cathedral was breath taking. I arrived in Seville with no plans while I was there and did not have tickets. I read about the Seville Cathedral and relized this was the thing to see while in Seville. However, I tried everywhere to get tickets with no luck. I asked a ticket guy at the Cathedral and he said if you don't have tickets now then you will not beable to get them. I tried many different website and only headout had tickets. Thanks headout!

The guide is worth 5 stars, but I wouldn't give this company more than 4 stars. 1st off, the instructions for where to meet the guide were wrong - so even though we had a link, with ghe picture of where to meet. It was wrong- we were very lucky the meeting point was in the same Square, or we would have missed the tour. Also, the guide should have waited until all tour members had returned from the tower before moving on. The headsets had limited range, so it was only by trial and error that we were able to find him again.

Visiting Seville Cathedral and La Giralda on Corpus Christi was unforgettable. The skip-the-line entry was smooth and well organized, and our guide was very insightful, pleasant, and engaging, and the atmosphere inside the cathedral felt even more special because of the celebration. A beautiful landmark, rich in history, faith, and impressive architecture. Highly recommended
