FEEL, EXPERIENCE SEVILLE LIKE A NATIVE! Hello! I am Carmen from Seville. Ring a bell? But now I'm a guide, and perhaps not just any other guide, or what do you think?. Yes, I used to roll cigars, remember? But those days are gone and now I will not even dare have your eyes roll, but just to admire and gaze at the full beauty of my Seville, the city where I was born, the city I love and I will make you love too. The old tobacco Factory? Funny, I never left it, since it was then turned into a University, and there I ended up taking my BA in English language. And true to my gypsy roots, I also travelled the world a bit and even lived in England for five years And back to my city, I have to say that it is not just the home of the world's largest Gothic cathedral or of one of the most exquisite arabesque palaces in Western Europe, but it is also the city of Carmen: full of life, energy, passion, exoticism and light. The light I would like to use to colour your experience of Seville, with interesting anecdotes, lots of humor, wit and good conversation. Conventional tours are not my style. In the past as we strolled along the Guadalquivir River: "Oh Merimé, how sweet of you to hum those seguidillas for me. Such beautiful music!" But what about the "manzanillas"? You will now ask -in the present. Oh! those I would like to drink with you my dear guest". Leave Carmen to guide you at her pace and her own way! I have been working as a guide for twenty years and after that accumulated experience, I have realized that the secret of my success is enjoying my tours. I am not a conventional guide and therefore neither are my tours. To discover Seville doesn't have to mean running from monument to monument cramming your head with facts, but to be able to enjoy the full experience of it, since the city opens to a whole diversity of activities. Besides, same as the rest of my colleagues, I can also guarantee: Skipping the lines A full licensed guide Tons of experience Trust me! You shouldn't miss my tour.

Overview of your Seville tour

Embark on a legendary journey to the very roots of the discovery of America. Follow the footsteps of Christopher Columbus, from his humblest beginnings at the La Rábida Monastery—where a rejected dreamer found refuge and the allies he needed to change history—to the historic Port of Palos. Stand on the decks of the full-scale replicas of the Niña, Pinta, and Santa María, and feel the adrenaline of the 1492 departure. To conclude this epic day, we visit the historic town of Moguer for an exclusive stop at Bodegas Diezmo Nuevo. Founded in 1770, this winery is a living legend of the region. As you wander through its ancient barrels, you will taste the famous Orange Wine, a unique local treasure. It’s the perfect moment to relax and toast to the spirit of discovery with the authentic flavors of the land that sent Columbus to the horizon.
