- David | about the guide
Do you love eclectic architecture (baroque, Mudéjar)? Are you fascinated by Moorish history? Do you want to know more about Christopher Columbus? Are you a fan of flamenco and tapas? This half-day walking tour is the ideal way to discover the vibrant city of Seville in the heart of Andalusia with your own private guide. Step back in time at the Alcazar as you admire the Mudéjar and Renaissance architecture of this former Moorish palace. Wander down by the meandering river Guadalquivir as you look up at the imposing Torre del Oro watch tower. Discover Seville cathedral, home to the burial site of explorer Christopher Columbus, and its iconic Giralda bell tower, the former minaret of the mosque that once stood on the site. Find out more about the city’s golden age at the Archivo General de Indias, housed in the former merchants’ exchange, which traces Spain colonial history in the Americas.

I was born in England and moved to sunny Seville 11 years ago. After working in and studying different fields in different places, I decided to use my local knowledge and experiences to found a high-quality travel agency that provides customizable tours in Seville with my Spanish business partner Luis. The aim? To show you the most authentic side of Spain and, particularly, Andalusia. I realized that I often had most fun and learnt most about a destination when I stepped off the beaten track and sought out local people. During your tour, you’ll step into the shoes of local artisans, wander through hidden alleyways and find out more about local life – from tobacco factories to religious statues. I love mountain biking, skiing, hiking, travelling (of course) and sharing the highlights of Seville.
