The tour of the palace was lovely and the guide was funny and informative. The palace was beautiful to see and easy to navigate around when the tour finished and you could explore by yourself.

Definitely a benefit to skip the line and hear from a knowledgeable guide. Adds so much to the experience. Karlos was friendly and knowledgeable with excellent, easy to understand English. We recommend this tour.

Great experience with Alvaro as our guide

patricia_k, Mar 2026
It’s really a good idea to get a guide through a place such as the Alcazar. Alvaro was extremely informative, and we learned a lot about the history of it. A few surprising facts were exposed!

Tour of Seville

Geoff_Q, Mar 2026
The tour was very fact heavy with guide being very, very knowledgeable. Standing around and listening caused back strain for some in party. Skip the queue was useful but if just interested for photos and quick look without detailed history do tour yourself.

Late start

Gill_P, Mar 2026
Our guide Ismael arrived over an hour late which was very disappointing, we struggled to understand him

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hello, thank you very much for taking the time to write a review about your experience. We're really sorry to hear you had a late start and we would like to express our deepest apologies. Kind regards.

Terrible guide

David_T, Mar 2026
Terrible experience. I want a refund the tour person left without us even though we were at the meeting point 15 minutes before. The person at the counter admitted to us it was their fault. The tour persons name Carmen

Very disappointed

Rolando_R, Mar 2026
It was extremely disorganized. Check in was a disaster, then they did not have the correct amount of tickets to get into Alcazar. So it took for ever standing around to get everyone in the palace. I’m assuming due to the time lost, the Tour lasted maybe 40 minutes and not much information I didn’t know. We were left in the Garden without seeing 50 percent of the Palace. Fortunately, I was able to stay and explore on my own. In retrospect, I was better off buying tickets and entering on my Own.

Worth a guided tour

Ivan the Great Tour

Angie_B, Mar 2026
Meet at described location not the actual palace. Ivan was knowledgeable and witty - well done! Use this tour company!

Nightmare

Helen_R, Mar 2026
We paid for tickets for Palace in Seville. When we got there we were not allowed in. Unknown to us we needed to get to a street to collect vouchers but there were no tickets left. Apparently the palace was full up . A huge disappointment for our last day in Seville

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hello, thank you very much for your feedback. Please note that is clearly stated in the terms and conditions of the product that you must collect your tickets in our office. Kind regards from Seville.

Take photo id!!!

RUTH_T, Mar 2026
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ID ON YOU IN ORDER TO GET INTO ALCAZAR. This needs to be more obvious when booking. This must be passport or driving licence. Bit of a “jobsworth” on the gate - nothing to do with Viator, but obviously a man in uniform can sometimes get obnoxious!!! Interesting and great to see although I have been before. Quite tiring walking round so have fresh body and good comfy shoes. Part access closed due to dignitary access. Please note exit is at the very back of the gardens so it feels like a slog to get back into city centre. Ivan was a great guide and provides headphones so you can hear him clearly.

Best guide, Manuela! We...

Sebastian_V, Mar 2026
Best guide, Manuela! We recommend it to everyone. The water was great and the information provided was very interesting.

Terrible experience

Karl_D, Feb 2026
When Viator changed the type of tour from one with a guide to one with no guide they sent us to the wrong office . When we eventually found the right office we were met with an extraordinary rude representative. After receiving abuse we were sent off to discover we paid over double the actual cost of the tour and received no refund.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hello, thank you very much for your feedback. We're sorry to hear you had some inconveniences during the experience and we would like to express our deepest apologies. Kind regards.

Worthwhile tour, with...

DavidWells, Feb 2026
Worthwhile tour, with almost too much information about Muslim/Christian relationships, etc. Very knowledgeable guide.

Loved the history

Joanne_M, Feb 2026
Very interesting history. Alvor was a good and interesting guide. He had a great interaction with the participants

Abraham was a great Guide

James_R, Feb 2026
The check in process was very disorganized. We met at the tour office and then were walked to the meeting site. Very little communication and Very different process from our tour office Sagrada Famalia in Barcelona. Our tour guide (Abraham) was a fantastic guide

Excellent tour!

Shauna_T, Feb 2026
Maria was a fantastic guide! We enjoyed hearing her knowledge and the pace was perfect. Beautiful palace!

Great tour, great guide.

Joel_G, Feb 2026
Mari Angeles is the guide you should request - skilled, friendly, expert. A worthwhile activity by a reputable company.

Beautiful & Informative

SUSAN_T, Feb 2026
Such a beautiful site!! Really worth the tour time. Our tour guide was a history major with a ton of information.

Adam_S, Feb 2026
Do not book. Not good for solo not good for group. I would suggest get your ticket directly. Much better if you avoid.

The tour of the palace was lovely and the guide was funny and informative. The palace was beautiful to see and easy to navigate around when the tour finished and you could explore by yourself.

Too much

Nancy_O, Feb 2026
The tour started 45 minutes late. There were about 30 people and not everyone got working headsets. The guide was extremely knowledgeable, and went into great depth about Spanish history. Too much detail, to be honest, for the general audience.

This is a great way to see the Alcazar and learn about the history. Our guide, Ivan, was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining, and offered great advice for other things to see in Seville.

Thank You Ivan - Fantastic Tour of the Alcazar

My husband and I had a great tour! Our tour guide, Karlos was knowledgeable and focused, he kept it interesting!

The magic place

Mercedes_F, Dec 2025
Beautiful place, full of great history, our tour guide was very helpful and explained everything very well.

Great tour guide!

Yana_A, Dec 2025
Ivan - our guide, was excellent and so was Christina who walked us half a kilometre from the meeting point at the tour agent's to the start of the tour. Would have given 5* if the booking team was a bit more polite and less confusing. Enjoy the tour!

Fun day despite limited mobility!! Karlos made sure no one was left behind.

Milagros_R, Dec 2025
Karlos was absolutely magnifico y muy simpatico, with great knowledge & humor, the entire troupe was educated. He made sure everyone's needs & expectations were met. Definity a must see ~ when you travel to Seville.

Great experience worth going

Galina_R, Nov 2025
Laura was very pleasant, interesting, accommodating and funny. Great experience! We were running late and she kindly waited for us & make sure we caught up with the tour

Sound equipment needs improvement

Helen_P, Nov 2025
Our guide Carmen was very helpful and knowledgeable. The tour was very comprehensive but let down by poor sound equipment

Fantastic tour, great info, fun tour guide!

Christen_C, Nov 2025
The Alcazar is a beautiful place with huge gardens. The tour is long enough to get the information you need but not boring or exhausting. Even my 13 year old loved it.

Book directly on advance with alcazar site

Roisin_O, Nov 2025
The alcazar itself is unforgettable. The tour however was disorganized and a little underwhelming. More could be done to facilitate those with disability.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Hello, thank you very much for taking the time to write a review about your experience. We're sorry to hear you had some difficulties during the activity and we would like to express our deepest apologies.
