Itinerary
The Cathedral of Seville is a Gothic masterpiece unique in the world. With its impressive size, it is the largest Gothic cathedral, and its architecture will leave you breathless. Visiting it is like entering an immense space full of magnificent details, such as its grandiose golden altar and its beautiful stained glass windows that flood the walls with light and color. Inside is the tomb of Christopher Columbus, a place full of history and mystery, where the great navigator rests. In addition, within this architectural gem lies the uncorrupted body of King Ferdinand III, which adds even more depth to his historical wealth. This cathedral is not only a religious place, but a treasure that encapsulates centuries of art, history and culture. Come and discover it with me on this unique guided tour, where I will share all the secrets of this gem of Seville. An experience you can’t miss!
This will be the priority palace to visit if there is capacity. The Alcázar de Sevilla is an authentic compendium of architectural styles that reflect the historical evolution of the city. Originating in Islamic times, its structure preserves the characteristic horseshoe arches and the distribution of courtyards, elements of Muslim design. The Mudéjar influence is evident in the intricate work of plasterwork and tiles, which fuses techniques and motifs of both Christian and Islamic tradition. In addition, certain spaces show the solidity and verticality of the Gothic style in their vaults and corridors, while the elegance and symmetry of the Renaissance is evident in the planning and decoration of some rooms. This guided tour focuses on analyzing and understanding how these architectural currents have been intertwined to create the uniqueness of the Alcázar.

Seville Cathedral, one of the largest Gothic churches in the world, holds the tomb of Christopher Columbus, and its bell tower, the Giralda, was once the minaret of a great mosque.
