Seville was not only shaped by empires and architects – but also by myths, revolutions, and moments of reinvention. On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll wander through the most enchanting and architecturally rich parts of the city with Manuel, an architect and licensed guide, and leave feeling like an informed explorer instead of just a visitor. The tour starts by the steps of Archivo de Indias, the repository of the early days of America’s history. You’ll see the grandeur of the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition, where a world’s fair was held in Parque de María Luisa (Maria Luisa Park). As you weave through the winding alleys of the Santa Cruz neighborhood, you’ll get a sense of how the medieval and modern past have shaped Sevilla. You’ll have time to appreciate the architectural grandeur of Plaza de España, a sweeping semicircle of tile and water built for the 1929 Exposition, and the majestic exteriors of La Giralda, the famous tower.

Across from Seville’s historic centre lies Triana. This colourful neighbourhood was relatively isolated from the rest of the city until the first fixed bridge opened in 1852. On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll come to understand how this working-class district forged its own strong identity based on its industrial past and rich cultural heritage. You’ll start the tour on the Puente de Triana bridge before diving into the narrow streets near the river, once home to Triana’s renowned ceramics industry and a royal soap factory. You’ll see beautiful tilework adorning Baroque churches, including Nuestra Señora de la O, and ornate Regionalist-style buildings like the former Montalván ceramics factory. You’ll wind through the former Cava de los Gitanos, where the passionate art of flamenco emerged from generations of Roma families gathering to express their emotions through song and dance. The tour ends with a spectacular view back across the river to Seville’s iconic skyline.

Carmona has occupied a strategic position overlooking the fertile Guadalquivir valley, ever since it was first settled 5,000 years ago. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll see how Carmona’s beautiful architecture reflects the diversity of the people who’ve made the town their home. You’ll also find out how the town took on the favour of Julius Caesar under the Romans, and retained its importance under successive Muslim and Christian rulers many years later. The tour starts at the imposing Alcázar de la Puerta de Sevilla, which guarded the main access into the walled town. As you walk, you’ll hear about colourful characters like Abd al-Rahman I and King Pedro I, who both sheltered from their enemies behind Carmona’s impregnable walls. I’ll also tell the story of the French-born British painter George Bonsor, who excavated Carmona’s Roman necropolis and became so enamoured with the town’s pastries that they were renamed “torta inglesa” (English cake) in his honour.

Seville would not be the same without the creation of spaces such as the Plaza de España for the Ibero-American Exhibition of 1929 or other enclaves that give it that traditional, colorful and charming appearance. The postcard image of Seville that we have is thanks to a group of architects who renovated the city between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, such as Aníbal González, José Espiau, Vicente Traver and Gómez Millán. They knew how to mix medieval, Christian and Muslim styles with Renaissance and Baroque styles in an amazing way until they created their own brand: Sevillian Regionalism. In addition, I will tell you stories about my ancestors during that time, I will tell you about the cafes and fashion of the 1920s, and about one of my novels that recreates that incredible time that resulted in my beautiful hometown.
