Well organized, easy to find before the tour. Very good value for money. Interesting comments, we didn't see the hour go by! Tour ends at the tower, so you can enjoy it exactly as you like. And you can continue strolling around the cathedral if you like. A magnificent visit, well worth the effort!

It was a memorable experience. We learned special things about the cathedral in Seville that we didn't find in tourist guides. Our guide Alexandra was wonderful, she introduced us to the sights with professionalism and joy. Our vacation in Seville is more beautiful and rich in memories thanks to this wonderful experience! Thank you!

Une bonne prise en charge du groupe. Unebon équipement audio pour des explications claires et très détaillées. Bien sur un accès direct à la Cathédrale c'est un plus en gain de temps d'attente. Un monument somptueux, riche en art et en histoire. C'est le moment à visiter. Une guide superbe, excellent français et bonne interaction avec le groupe.

A bit difficult to find the right group in the crowd but the agents were very helpful and even called us although we were in place. All worked well and the process to get in was really smooth. The guide was very clear and gave us the important info, always with a smile.

The cathedral is magnificent and worth visiting with a trained guide like Manuel. The group is large but with headphones you can follow the explanations efficiently.

What to expect

Recognized as the world's largest Gothic cathedral, this is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a focal point of the city’s history. Its bell tower, the La Giralda, was once the minaret of an Almohad mosque. Today, it offers stunning panoramic views of Seville's historic capital.

La Giralda: Ascend the ramps of the cathedral's bell tower for sweeping city and countryside vistas & go back in time to when the muezzins ascended the tower on horseback to issue the call to prayer.

Christopher Columbus' tomb: The subject of much debate and scrutiny, the cathedral also houses the tomb of this ever-so-famous Italian explorer.
