Itinerary
Located in the heart of Seville, this historic square has witnessed centuries of royal events, conquests, and silent grandeur.
Tucked away in the narrow streets of Santa Cruz, this quiet square was once a meeting place for nobles and the setting for medieval court intrigues.
Surrounded by romantic legends and nostalgia, this is one of the most charming and picturesque corners of Seville’s old Jewish Quarter.
This street recalls the tragic tale of Susona, a young Jewish woman torn between love and betrayal, whose name lives on in local memory.
A stunning Baroque building that once housed retired priests, now filled with centuries of sacred art and the spirit of Seville’s Golden Age.
Home to the renowned painter Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, who captured the light and soul of 17th-century Seville in his masterpieces.
One of Seville’s most iconic streets, where mysterious disappearances gave birth to some of the city’s oldest urban legends.
From this very balcony, the opera The Barber of Seville brought Rosina to life — a playful, clever character inspired by the spirit of this neighborhood.
A narrow, cool passage where the water from the Royal Alcázar once flowed, still echoing with poems, love stories, and whispered secrets.
Set behind the Alcázar walls, this wide courtyard holds memories of empires, royal ceremonies, and the evolution of Seville through the ages.

Traveler reviews
Great and informative
Julio was great and so nice and informative. Knows so much history and a great storyteller. Fit a lot in during tour.
Wonderful insightful Jewish tour through Santa Cruz
Wonderful tour of Santa Cruz with history of the Jewish community and their many contributions to the history of Spain. Anna has an incredibly thorough background and knowledge of history, architecture and archeology. Anna was able to help focus a vast history of Spain through the lens of the Jewish contribution.
Such an interesting tour with Paco the fab guide
Fascinating tour with Paco - he was really enthusiastic and friendly with a deep knowledge of the area. Could not have been better.
A worthwhile tour of Jewish history in Seville.
Despite the minimal evidence left in Seville of the Jewish history in this area, the guide did an excellent job relating to us the history of the Jewish population. He was personable and at times funny. He did spend a bit too much time discussing interesting issues such as operas in Seville, but these were off topic. Although he discussed the massacres of 1391 he did not discuss how this spread through Spain and how it may have been related to bringing the inquisition to Spain. All in all, a worthwhile tour.
A Bilingual visit through the winding narrow streets of the former old Jewish Quarter of Seville with Carmen on a wet da
Carmen, our guide was warm, kind and intelligent. We were supposed to have an English Speaking guide, but through your mix up we were given Carmen who is Spanish speaking! We decided to make the best of it and we communicated using her little English and our little knowledge of Spanish. She helped my husband who is getting old and walks slow and she knew her way through wiring streets of the old Jewish neighborhood.
