This tour was incredible! Our guide, Samuel, was knowledgeable and took the time to dive deep into the history of the cathedral and palace. Skipping the massive lines was a huge plus. Samuel’s humor and energy made the day fun and welcoming for the whole group. Don't miss this one!

Quick access to these two attractions

Cynthia_T, Mar 2026
Quick access to the cathedral and Alcatraz. English speaking tour guide was difficult to understand. If he talked slower it might be easier to understand. Overall glad we skipped the lines. Both places were amazing

Great tour guide, poor communication from Viator

We had a great time. The tour guy was amazing and very knowledgeable of these site’s history. Beautiful places to visit when you are in Seville.

Not value for money

Sandro_R, Mar 2026
we received a message from the provider that changed time and agency. The tour had a pause of 45 minutes and we were not awared of this. In the second part more people joined and the guide had to repeat some informations. So much confusion.

Sam was one of the best tour guides I have ever experienced. His amazing wealth of information given it to us through storytelling made it very special.

Gail_V, Mar 2026
The places we saw were incredible!! It would have been better to have An English person talking. It was very hard to understand our tour guide and the head sets didn’t help!

Really good tour!

Ritu_G, Mar 2026
Our guide Laura was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the whole tour - no queueing and well-timed short breaks helped too.

Remember your ID and if you have a pacemaker remember you card showing you have a pacemaker! Odd security but outstanding tour

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Tim, Thank you very much for your review! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour and found it outstanding. Regarding the security measures, these are set by the monument authorities and apply to all visitors, not only guided groups. We appreciate you pointing it out, as it can be useful for future travelers. Best regards, OWAY Tours

Great tour

Janet_C, Mar 2026
A comprehensive tour of the top sites in Seville. Our guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and had good humour! No problem hearing him at all with our radios and ear pieces. A great way to see these sites!

Best Viator tour ever

Best Viator tour ever. The Alcazar, Cathedral and Giralda guided tour was the most informative, entertaining and spectacular experience we have with Viator to date. Our guide was knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time. So much FUN! Thank you

Wonderful afternoon with Jose!

Carrie_L, Mar 2026
What a wonderful way to see the sites and learn about the Alcazar, Cathedral and climb (walk up) the Giralda. Our guide, Jose, was wonderful, informative and answered all our questions. Would definately recommend skipping line and doing this tour.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

A Must Do in Sevia

John_R, Feb 2026
This tour was incredible! Our guide, Samuel, was knowledgeable and took the time to dive deep into the history of the cathedral and palace. Skipping the massive lines was a huge plus. Samuel’s humor and energy made the day fun and welcoming for the whole group. Don't miss this one!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi John, Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a great experience and that Samael made the tour both informative and enjoyable. His energy, humor, and deep knowledge are exactly what we aim to provide in every visit. We’re also glad you appreciated the priority access — especially in such busy monuments, it really makes a difference. Thank you for your recommendation! Best regards, OWAY Tours

Lost in transit

Declan_D, Feb 2026
It was nothing special and in the middle of it there was a break before going to the cathedral. My partner's hip was sore and we missed the guide so paid all that money and didn't get into the cathedral which was the main point of booking the trip

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Declan, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations. During this tour, there is a scheduled short break between the Alcázar and the Cathedral, and the guide always clearly communicates the meeting point and time to continue the visit. As the monuments operate with strict timed-entry tickets, it is very important for the group to rejoin at the indicated time. Unfortunately, if the group is missed at that point, access to the Cathedral cannot be guaranteed, as tickets are linked to a specific schedule and group entry. We understand your situation and regret that this affected your experience, but the tour continued according to the planned itinerary and timing. Thank you for your understanding. Best regards, OWAY Tours

Very good tour and great guide

Doug_W, Feb 2026
We quite enjoyed this tour and our tour guide Olga was fantastic- gave us lots of great information and she handled the noisy and congested Cathedral portion of the visit very well !! We also enjoyed the information about La Giralda but did not climb the tower !

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Doug, Thank you very much for your review. We’re really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that Olga made such a positive impression. Managing busy and crowded spaces like the Cathedral is not always easy, so it’s great to know she handled it well and kept the experience enjoyable. We’re also glad you enjoyed the explanations about La Giralda, even without climbing it. Thank you again for your kind words! Best regards, OWAY Tours

Very detailed tour!

Eric_L, Feb 2026
Great tour and loved seeing the Alcázar and climbing the tower. Guide was super informative! A little long with kiddos but other than that that a great tour!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Eric, Thank you very much for your review! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the tour, especially the visit to the Alcázar and the climb up the tower. We also appreciate your comment about the duration. These tours are quite comprehensive due to the historical context and the size of the monuments, but we understand that it can feel a bit long when traveling with kids. Thanks again for your feedback and for recommending the experience! Best regards, OWAY Tours

Sam is extremely...

Elizabeth_D, Feb 2026
Sam is extremely knowledgeable about all facets of Sevilla history/ culture and a wonderful synthesizer of historic events, time periods, architecture, and religious influence. Really helpful! He brings it all together, connecting the dots from one event to the next and explaining why. He speaks somewhat quickly but clearly, and is very personable and responsive to any needs. A great guide, with a touch of dramatic flair! After a few minutes, he captured our hearts!

Was great, but i think if...

Rick_M, Feb 2026
Was great, but i think if the guide spoke less we would have saw more. So much to see at the palace. Our tour was the english version, not sure if it was the poor quality of the radios but he was very hard to understand. I missed so much.

This was so enjoyable....

Sandy_S, Jan 2026
This was so enjoyable. Our tour guide shared so many important details. We connected those details to our trip to Grenada. It is an important experience to do while in Seville.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Dear Sandy, Thank you very much for your kind words. We are truly pleased to read that you found the experience so enjoyable and that the historical connections enriched your wider trip through Andalusia. One of our main goals during the Alcázar, Cathedral and Giralda tour is precisely to help visitors understand how the different cities — including Granada and Seville — are historically interconnected. It is wonderful to know that our guide’s explanations helped bring that context to life for you. Thank you as well for highlighting that this is an important experience while visiting Seville — we fully agree. We sincerely appreciate your recommendation. Best regards, OWAY Tours

Very poorly planned

Nancy_F, Jan 2026
We went to the meeting g place we had been given but no guide was there. A guide from another company called Oway, which we had been to.d was our guide for the tour. They said the location had been changed. We had received no notification. As we were trying to find the new location we got a call saying our tour had to leave the meeting g point. Luckily we were able to meet up with the group just before they entered the Catedral. This was very stressful,and we received no apology.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Thank you for sharing your experience, Nancy. We’re sorry to hear that this situation caused you stress. We would like to clarify that your tour was transferred in advance to another company, Naturanda, in order to guarantee that you could enjoy the tour at the same time you had originally booked. Otherwise, unfortunately, the tour could not have been operated and you would have missed it. For this reason, the meeting point was changed, and this information was communicated beforehand. The change was made solely to ensure that your experience could still take place as planned. We regret any confusion this may have caused and appreciate your understanding. Best regards, OWAY Tours

Fussy tourist

Joseph_C, Jan 2026
Arrived at the planned meet up 15 mins prior, to rest, as we knew it would be a heavy walking day. It was easy to spot the guide with the branded umbrella as stated. We had brief introduction to how the day would unfold, and shortly after so we went. Our guide was very thorough, informative with humor, and allows plenty of time ( my opinion) to understand what we were looking at, as well as time to just enjoy being there. We toured the alcazar first and had a great overview of history, with additional questions allowed to add to the discussion. A small break to wander, then off to the cathedral. All major and interesting historical features highlighted. Happy tourist 😃👏

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for your great review, Joseph! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that our guide made the experience informative, relaxed, and enjoyable. It’s wonderful to know you felt comfortable and had time to truly appreciate each place. Hope to see you again soon! Best regards, OWAY Tours

Barbara_L, Jan 2026
Jose, with his PhD in history, wove a wonderful narrative about the historical context of everything we were seeing. We only scratched the surface of the stories of the Alcazar and the Cathedral, but were mesmerized. The tour will drive us to learn more on our own.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you very much for your kind words, Barbara. We’re delighted to hear that José’s passion and knowledge made such an impression on you. Inspiring curiosity and interest in history is one of our main goals. We hope to welcome you again in the future! Warm regards, OWAY Tours

Bad service

Carrie_W, Jan 2026
Bad customer service as I accidentally booked a tour for the next day. I IMMEDIATELY contacted both Viator and the tour agency and neither would switch the date of the tour. I understand that it was my mistake but I was not asking for a refund - just a change in your date. Instead, I paid for a tour for four and we were not even in the country.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for sharing your experience, Carrie. We’re sorry to hear about the frustration this situation caused. As soon as your reservation was confirmed, the entrance tickets were already purchased and issued in your name. For this reason, unfortunately, we were unable to modify the date or process a refund. We understand how disappointing this can be, especially as it was an honest mistake, and we truly regret that we couldn’t offer a different solution in this case. Best regards, OWAY Tours

Informative and Intetesting

Janet_D, Jan 2026
The three sites included in the tour are amazing. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history and iconography of the structures. He presented the information with enthusiasm and humor. Because of the information he wanted to share, he spoke very quickly, so it was a bit difficult to understand him sometimes. Regardless, I learned a great deal and appreciate how thorough he was, given the time constraints. You must have your ID with you for admission (passport or driver’s license with photo). Bags and backpacks are scanned or searched. Wear sturdy shoes.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you, Janet, for such a thoughtful and detailed review! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed visiting these three incredible sites and that our guide’s knowledge, enthusiasm, and humor helped bring their history to life. We also appreciate your note about the pace of the explanations — sharing so much in a limited time can sometimes be a challenge, and your feedback helps us keep improving. We’re glad you still came away having learned so much and enjoyed the experience. Best regards, OWAY Tours

Excellent tour guide and he has extensive knowledge and very friendly and knowledgeable

Muhammad_S, Jan 2026

Exceptional guide, great tour!

Tess_T, Jan 2026
Sam was one of my favorite tour guides I’ve ever had. Yes, he was very knowledgeable and had a clear passion for the history, but he was also hilarious. He was a compelling storyteller through wit and humor, and he was highly engaging to listen to.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are thrilled to hear that Sam made such a strong impression and that you enjoyed his storytelling, humor, and passion during your visit in Seville. Creating engaging and memorable experiences is exactly what we aim for. Best Regards, OWAY Tours
