Hi there! My name is Juan. I am a licensed official guide in Andalusia, but also I am an art historian: I love historical cities, the evolution of urban life, the ways in which people have understood and inhabited cities. From my professional position as a tour guide, I consider myself fortunate to be able to bring tourists and / or residents to the local culture through the communication of their history and art. I think that in conversation with visitors, a debate is generated around the culture that contributes to making our daily environment a place not only more enjoyable, but also happier. There is also something extra, which is not required for the license: I teach Spanish as a foreign language, so I am used to speaking in a didactic way in the tours. In this sense, I worry about adapting the contents of the visit to the expectations of the travelers, leaving room and time for addressing their interests. And if you want I am happy to customize the tour for you. Please inquire for a quote. licensed official guide in Andalusia I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. I offer tours only in the languages I refer to in my profile.

Juan Alberto is super knowledgeable about all things Sevilla! His tours (my group took two with him) are very informative and well organized. I would not hesitate to hire him again the next time we are in Sevilla.

Thank you Juan for a caring tour for our family with children, introducing us to Seville Cathedral. Juan was patient, friendly, attentive, and professional. We enjoyed learning of the history and legends associated with the various stops around the cathedral. Juan catered to our interests and was efficient with the time. Cheers!

Juan is an excellent guide and an excellent person. I recommend him 110%. He knows all the facts about Sevilla and its incredible sights, and he also knows how to modulate between full detail and just what you need to know. He was always punctual, patient, and in good humor. We consider him a new friend. If Juan is available for your travel dates, book him before someone else does!
