Hello! My name is Abraham, and I am a born and bred Sevillano, guiding international visitors through my city as a full-time licensed guide since 2016. Showing visitors Seville, and giving them a first-hand understanding of my culture and my traditions is not only my job, it is my passion. It is with great pleasure and pride that I guide my guests through the beautiful streets of Seville, and the natural and historic highlights of the Andalusian countryside beyond. The story of how I became a tour guide is both a story of curiosity in my surroundings, and one of personal development. As a child, I loved nature documentaries which led me to study Environmental Science at the University of Seville. Graduating from my studies, I turned to explore another of my passions; meditation and self-awareness, and completed a Master's degree in Mindfulness and Compassion at the University of Zaragoza. Finally, feeling that I needed to improve my English language skills, I moved to the UK where I lived and worked in a Buddhist monastery on the edge of Scotland. On my return to Seville, I searched for a job that suited my personality, my skills and my lifestyle. The stars aligned, and I began working as a guide. It is since this moment five years ago that I have been dedicated to helping visitors explore and truly understand Seville, and Andalusia. What is it that I can offer you? Some of the things that I can offer include well-organized tours in my comfortable and clean 2018 Volkswagen passenger van, to various spots in the countryside; trekking outings through beautiful forests and mountains; birdwatching in the marshlands; excursions to various national parks in south-western Andalusia; and ambles through the inumerable charming villages across the region. Beaches, historic sights, wildlife, hiking, swimming and more; all are well within reach of Seville. Back in the city, I especially enjoy taking visitors on bike tours, guiding them from one impressive spot to the next including the Alcazar, the Cathedral, and one of my favourites, the Jewish quarter of Santa Cruz. In my years of experience, one of the things that I have learned is that what is interesting for one can be less so for another. It is for this reason that I make every effort to customize my tours according to the guest's time, their interests and their expectations. Just let me know what you are looking to experience, and I promise to find a way to make your time in Seville unique and unforgettable. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions, and I will be happy to give you more details. Hasta luego! —Licensed Andalusia Tour Guide. — Driver License since 2005. —Bachelor in Environmental Science at the University of Seville. —Master in Mindfulness and Compassion at University of Zaragoza. There are no restrictions at all, I am licensed guide, and I am very good driver.

Overview of your Seville tour

This day trip is designed to enjoy Córdoba in a relaxed and enjoyable way, without rushing and without turning the visit into a history lesson. The heart of the experience is the Mosque Cathedral, one of the most unique and impressive monuments in Europe. The visit focuses on understanding and feeling the space, its beauty and its atmosphere, rather than on detailed historical explanations. We explore Córdoba on foot, walking through its historic center, the Roman Bridge, the former Jewish Quarter and its charming streets. We also visit traditional patios, decorated with flowers and plants, which are an essential part of the city’s character. On the way to or from Córdoba, we make a short stop in Carmona, a beautiful hilltop town that adds a pleasant pause to the journey. This is a flexible and personal experience, adapted to your pace and interests. The goal is simply to enjoy Córdoba and its most iconic monument at an easy rhythm.

Your Seville tour itinerary

The day begins with pickup at your hotel or a convenient meeting point in Seville, followed by a comfortable drive to Córdoba. Along the way, we can make a short stop for coffee or breakfast if desired. Once in Córdoba, we explore the historic center on foot. We walk along the ancient city walls, through the San Basilio area to visit traditional patios, and continue into the former Jewish Quarter, enjoying the atmosphere of its narrow streets and quiet corners. The highlight of the visit is the Mosque-Cathedral. Due to local regulations, the interior visit is led by an authorized local guide for approximately one hour, while I provide context and assistance before and after the visit. Afterwards, there is time for lunch and a short break. In the afternoon, we return to Seville, with the option of stopping at Almodóvar del Río Castle, a well-preserved Islamic fortress and filming location for Game of Thrones. This itinerary is flexible and adapted to your pace and interests.
