Secret palaces

John_R, Dec 2024

Very good tour guide. Toured two palaces that are not widely visited in Seville as people still reside in parts of the palaces. Enjoyed the tour and the guide very much.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Lovely palaces

LisaDonley, May 2024

Nice morning tour. Guide picked us up at our hotel and we walked thru the Jewish quarter and learned the history on our way to the palace. Both were gorgeous and well worth visiting.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your morning tour. Starting with a convenient hotel pick-up and exploring the Jewish Quarter, followed by a visit to the palace, sounds like the perfect way to experience Seville’s rich history and beauty. Both locations are indeed breathtaking, and we're thrilled that you found them worth visiting. We take pride in offering seamless, informative tours that allow you to truly immerse yourself in the city's heritage.

Fue un recorrido...

rosa_f, May 2022

Fue un recorrido excelente por dos palacios con historia dentro de una hermosisima Sevilla. Nos explicaron historia e historias personales que nos adentrarnos en casas, jardines, fuentes y adornos. Para repetir.

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Muchas gracias, Rosa. Fue un placer para nosotros. EL tour de los palacios es más desconocido de nuestros tours, y se sale de la ruta turística habitual de Sevilla, por lo que todo el que la prueba queda encantado. Les deseamos lo mejor,
