On this day trip to Seville from Cordoba, the capital of Andalusia, we will explore the city's most significant monuments along with its enchanting hidden gems.
Accompanied by our private local guide, we'll visit the Moorish marvel of Real Alcazar, the oldest royal palace still in use in Europe, established by the Muslim people a millennium ago. Adjacent to the Alcazar and the Cathedral lies Santa Cruz, the historic Jewish Quarter.
Here, we’ll meander through the narrow, winding streets that are filled with charm and imbued with a tranquil atmosphere.
Later, we'll tour the Cathedral, the third largest in the Christian world and one of its wealthiest. Inside, you'll find the authentic tomb of Christopher Columbus!
We’ll also visit (and if you choose, climb) the Giralda Tower, an ancient minaret and iconic symbol of Seville.
You'll have ample free time to delve deeper into Seville and enjoy lunch (not included).

Seville boasts a remarkably rich history. The Romans once dominated all of Spain for over six centuries, transforming the landscape by constructing aqueducts and straight roads to connect the major towns.
However, the Muslim invaders left the most enduring mark on Seville. Their Dynasty thrived in Andalusia for nearly 800 years, from 711 until 1492, when the Catholic monarchs finally vanquished the Muslim kingdom of Granada. Many of Seville’s most impressive structures are a testament to this era.
After the fall of the kingdom of Granada, Spain entered a phase of prosperity and expansion. The discovery of the New World propelled Seville into one of the wealthiest cities in Europe. By the 18th century, however, Spain fell into economic turmoil, and during the 19th and early 20th centuries, poverty and hardship sparked political unrest, culminating in civil war. Today, Seville stands as the capital of Andalusia and ranks among the most visited cities in Spain.
