Cathedral of Seville

Your adventure begins at an easy-to-access meeting point in the center of Seville, where you’ll meet your guide and fellow explorers for the day. From here, enjoy a short but lovely walk through the narrow streets of the historic center to your first destination—the Cathedral of Seville. Thanks to your skip-the-line tickets, there’s no need to wait in the lengthy queue, and soon, you’ll be stepping through the Cathedral’s grand doors into the magnificent nave filled with artistic treasures.

As the world's largest Gothic cathedral, it's hard to know where to begin exploring. However, with an expert guide leading the way, you can be assured you'll discover the must-see features of the Cathedral as well as its hidden gems often overlooked by visitors. Tune in as your guide recounts the Cathedral's evolution—from a 12th-century mosque into a testament to Christian grandeur—with each stone and stained-glass window telling a story of faith, power, and artistic endeavor. The highlight is undoubtedly the tomb of Christopher Columbus, as well as the Patio de los Naranjos, which offers the perfect place to pause amidst its historic orange trees.

Giralda Tower

Of course, another must-see highlight of the Cathedral of Seville is its impressive Giralda Tower. Originally constructed in the 12th century as the minaret for the Great Mosque of Seville, its beautiful Islamic design is a testament to the architectural ingenuity of the time. Yet, upon closer inspection, you’ll also find it also features a Renaissance-style bell tower, which was added in the 16th century under architect Hernán Ruiz.

With free time to ascend the tower’s ramps, you’ll get an up-close view of its varying influences. Then, upon reaching the top, you’re rewarded with panoramic views of Seville, a breathtaking maze of rooftops and spires, rivers, and gardens. Pause to take in the grandeur of your surroundings, where the past and present become one and the same.

Alcazar Palace Complex

The final leg of your tour brings you to the Royal Alcazar of Seville, a palace overflowing with stories of Muslim kings and Christian monarchs. With priority entry, you'll once again skip the lengthy queue and head straight inside. Follow your guide’s lead through rooms filled with exquisite tapestries and tiles, into beautiful courtyards singing with water features, and gardens rightly fit for a king.

Throughout your tour, you can look forward to visiting the Palace of King Don Pedro, the Palace of Yeso, the House of the Assistant, the House of the Contracting, and the Gothic Palaces—each showcasing hints of its important past through intricate designs, artistry, and personal artifacts. Then, for a grand finale, venture into the stunning gardens of the Royal Alcázar. Here, lush greenery, fragrant flowers, and tranquil water features are set against the backdrop of the palace's stunning architecture, making it the perfect escape from the city’s bustle.

In fact, it’s such a peaceful space, we know you’ll be in no hurry to leave. So, it’s here you’ll bid farewell to your guide and enjoy uninterrupted free time to explore at your leisure.
