Our family of 5, including three children ages 12 & 9, had a wonderful visit to the Real Alcazar with Laura. She was very easy to communicate with prior to our visit and provided an engaging walk through the beautiful Real Alcazar. She catered the history and details to the family and got the kids involved in the tour. They loved it as much as we did. We thoroughly enjoyed Laura and the Real Alcazar. Highly recommend!

Just had a brilliant afternoon in Triana, exploring the market and local tapas bars with Mabel. She brought us off the beaten track to places she likes to go herself, recommended dishes and drinks, as well as giving us lots of insight into Seville and Spanish culture. We had so much fun on this tour and it was a great way to see Triana. Could not recommend Mabel enough, she was a wonderful host 😊Fantastic afternoon in Triana!

It has been a year since we took a tour with Elena and I have finally gotten around to writing a review. In the year since our visit to Sevilla, the tour we took and the things Elena shared with us about the city she clearly loves, have stayed with us. That is how memorable Elena was. She was able to help us see her city with such affection, clarity, and understanding that we can't wait to go back. We cannot recommend highly enough...Delightful

This experience of the amazing city of Seville was top notch. With Elena, we not only discovered the food culture of Spanish city, but we also learnt so much history of the area. This tour taught us about Seville’s ancient roots, all of the different people who have created the melting-pot of cultures, and even the very origins of the tapa. I immensely recommend this tour to anyone reading.Wonderful Cultural Experience

We did the Taste of Triana - Market & Tapas Experience with Elena. It was a fantastic experience with the best combination of food, wine and history. Elena had an intimate knowledge of the Triana Markets and so was able to show us around and order us tapas dishes, cheeses, salads and other local delicacies that we would never would have thought of ordering. She also introduced us to local wines and spirits that we had never experienced before. Elena’s personality was bubbly and gregarious - she had a great sense of humour and nothing was too much trouble. The experience with Elena was one of the best highlights of our visit to Seville. The best experience!!

We did the walking tour of the Alcazar and sourrounding with Alba and it was amazing. Alba waited for us with a smile in the placa in fronte of the Alcazar and we went right in (we went at 10.00). From the moment we walked in, we were amazed by the architecture but most of all by the history and anecdotes that Alba told us! She was very knowledgeable, funny and nice and it was a pleasure listening to her. After the Alcazar we went to the Jewish quarter and after some more amazing stories and tips we finished the tour. I can’t recommend Alba enough, book her and you will have the best insights of Sevilla! Best experience in Sevilla

Jose Andres showed us many different facets of Seville. With stops at the Cathedral of Seville and the church of the Macarena, as well as City Hall, the parliament building, the Esplanada de España. At each stop Jose Andres gave us historical information or interesting facts. We visited the newer part of Seville where some of the popular night spots are. He always pointed out the beautiful architecture along the way like the Alfonso XIII hotel, and the Roman and Arabic walls around the city. All in all it was a great way to learn about Sevilla and which locations at which to spend our time.Getting the lay of the land

A delightful experience. Elena superbly guided us through some wonderful iconic sights, & hidden gems. It was terrific to share stories of our respective countries. Elena showed genuine curiosity & interest in our country, as we did hearing & learning from her. Given the heat in Seville, it was a welcome respite to visit the Convent & have lovely home- baked biscuits by the Nuns & have coffee in the nearby bar. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, & Elena’s food tops & venues were spot on. Thanks Elena very much!! Ruth & Peter. Australia.Relaxed, infotmstive & totally engaging!

We were so intrigued with Alba's stories and anecdotes that the time flew by. She brought us to every area of the Alcazar and walked the gardens with us. We not only heard the history, but the legends of the times as well. We felt as if we were walking through time as Alba brought history to life for us. On the tour was my 21 year old daughter and 83 year old father and we all enjoyed the day immensely. We cannot recommend Alba enough!History Comes to Life with Alba

Elena was fantastic! She took us to several different stops with a variety of flavors and explained the historical and cultural context of each dish and paired it well with drinks appropriate for the taste and the locale. Each place was clearly the favorite of locals as opposed to a tourist spot. Elena not only had deep knowledge of the wine and drink selections but also explained the cultural nuances of our surroundings. She also explained a lot about Flamenco and its origins and histories as well as the Andalusian language living right in front of us! Very much worth the value! She was friendly and flexible as we had to work around another sight we were seeing just before. Thank you so much for everything!Deep knowledge, great flavors

We had toured the “big sites” as part of a larger group tour. We had a free afternoon and asked Laura to arrange a walk that would show us more of Sevilla. From the Plaza de España to the Triana neighborhood and many places in between, she did just that! She provided many historical details of interest and quickly became a friend with whom were having a casual conversation We would highly recommend her services to anyone as a guide in Sevilla!Great guide

We did the guided tour of the Alcázar of Seville with Laura. The tour was fantastic and was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation! Laura is a very kind and communicative guide and knows how to share her knowledge very vividly and with a lot of humor. Laura's expertise as a historian is very impressive and always at the cutting edge of science! The Alcázar is a cultural and historical gem. Without the additional knowledge and all the background information, you would miss a lot when visiting! If you are like us interested in the rich history and culture and want to take away more than just a few photos for your social media account, we highly recommend the tour with Laura. You won't regret it :-) The communication and organization in advance were also perfect! Thank you so much Laura!Great experience!

Laura was a fun guide. She.s a historian with a specialty in women.s history so she can tell you not only about the tiles, the ceilings, the windows and the floors. She also has studied the documents of the last few centuries so can tell you more about who was doing what. She helped to make the place come alive for us. Definitely hire her if you can.
