Traveler reviews
Great visit that requires patience and stamina!
Great place to visit for half a day! Vast complex of chapels gardens, Choir, side altars, sacristy, Chapter room, rooms of gold and silver items, paintings, tomb of C. Columbas and his sons! Giralda Tower included which is interesting and not difficult to climb even with crowds. Great views, even into nearby hotel rooftop pools with bathers oblivious that they are being gawked at and photographed from above!!! Many different orchestral styles to enjoy (Gothic, ramped Moorish Bell tower - Giralda, etc, Renaissance, etc). Loads to visit and see. Atmosphere was very secular and museum like, with great crowds of non-Europeans swishing around the place following guides or electronic ear guides. Little sense of the Sacred! Thankfully, bathrooms at one corner which were clean and spacious. Water font beside it with drinking water - a life saver! Worth visiting, but do not expect a religious atmosphere! Expensive for what you get (€38 for tour, tower, cathedral entry and Guide, 1.5 hrs). Our Guide was charming and excellent. Margarita Zerpa Rodríguez (from Sevilla Única Cultural Experiences from whom I booked the tour) was very skilled and well-informed. Obviously a woman of deep faith, she catered for a very diverse crowd, some of whom knew nothing of Spanish history or Christianity! She was excellent! Go prepared for lots of crowds and lots of walking! Certainly, very worth seeing but for me it is a once in a lifetime visit! I do not feel I have to visit it again! A+ experience!
Poor logistics
The guide (Chacon) was fine, if a little disorganised. The logistics were dreadful. We couldn’t find the Naturanda Office (the road would not come up on Google Maps) so phoned them. The spectacularly unhelpful woman we spoke with just kept telling us to Google it. When we found the office the tour had left as (despite having my number they chose not to check). We caught up with the tour but had no headsets. We were well into the cathedral before headsets were provided. If I went again I would book with the cathedral direct and not use this agency.
More than just a solo visit.
Our guide Alvaro knows his subject very well. He knew how to enhance the visit with several historical references while getting the group to participate. The pickup is a bit slow.
Thank you Álvaro!
The tour was great, we enjoyed our time. Personally I’m not a history person but the way our guide explained and talked about made it very enjoyable and entertaining. Thanks to Álvaro!!
Great!
The tour was great. The cathedral was beautiful and the guide was very instructive and thorough. He also answered multiple questions throughout the tour.
