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!

Good management of the group. Good audio equipment for clear and very detailed explanations. Of course, direct access to the Cathedral is a plus in terms of saving waiting time. A sumptuous monument, rich in art and history. Now is the time to visit. A superb guide, excellent French, and good interaction with the group.

Very easy reservation and very clear meeting point. We immediately located the guide who led us first to the Cathedral (skipping the whole line) and then to the Giralda. Jesus was great and very clear in his explanation in English. Excellent experience that I recommend to everyone.

Unfortunately we did not get skip the queue as there was only one entrance due to storm damage on 2nd entrance. There were too many people viewing the Giralda tower so we could not see the views from the top.

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.

Features

Architectural grandeur: Marvel at the cathedral’s intricate blend of Moorish and Christian architecture, a marker of Spain's rich history.

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.

Patio de los Naranjos: Stroll through this historic orange-tree courtyard, a remnant of the site’s Islamic past.

Eighty Chapels: Discover chapels dedicated to saints and nobles, each reflecting centuries of religious and civic history.
