Royal Alcazar, Cathedral and Giralda of Seville
A small-group morning through Seville's landmark trio — the Gothic Cathedral, the Giralda tower and the palatial Royal Alcázar with its Mudéjar halls and gardens. A guide brings the stories to life and takes the guesswork out of the visit.
About this tour
Seville's monumental heart packs three of Spain's landmark buildings into a few walkable blocks, and this three-hour small-group tour covers them with a guide. Inside the cathedral — one of the largest in the world — you'll see the tomb attributed to Christopher Columbus before the route reaches the Giralda, the former minaret that became the cathedral's bell tower. The finale is the Royal Alcázar, a still-used royal palace whose carved ceilings, tiled courtyards and lush gardens have stood in for palaces on screen and in history alike. Kept to a small group for a more personal pace, the tour welcomes children from age 4, allows infants, and starts at €89. See the tour page for start times and ticket inclusions.
