Full description

Discover one of Spain’s most extraordinary buildings on a guided tour of the Alcazar in Seville. Meet your guide on the Plaza del Triunfo to skip the long lines to the building, started by the Cordoban governors of Seville in 913. Learn the history of the Alcazar, and how it expanded over its 11 centuries of existence. Enter the ornate complex to see the exquisite additions of the Almohads when they turned into a fortress in the 12th century. Travel through time as you hear tales of the Christian Fernando III, who moved into the Alcázar when he captured Seville in 1248. See architectural evidence of the Moorish Muslim rulers, government officials, court servants, and royal guard. Marvel at one of the most outstanding examples of Mudéjar architecture on the Iberian Peninsula.

Experience the palace and gardens with all your senses, from the sound of the fountains to the fragrance of flowers to the intricate Mudéjar plaster work and beams in the Patio del León.

Very good guide, well-structured visit, but you can't see everything because there's not enough time. The guide explained what we could see the most and what these things were. I think they could make the visit last half an hour, for example, and include a few more areas, for the price paid it would be fair. Other than that, the place is beautiful and magical!

At times the earpieces were a bit too loud or would cut in and out, but our guide did a great job. She was very well informed and was happy to answer any questions, and we were able to skip any queues. Theres so much to learn about the Alcazar so I’d recommend doing this tour.

really good informative tour, tour guide was excellent (I can't remember her name, sorry!). Beautiful gardens and palace, tour went at a good pace and she was very clear and friendly. Guided tour lasted around 1.30 hours but then you could spend as much free time as you liked in the entire grounds.
