I have always been passionate about history, geography, travel, and different cultures—a love I inherited from my family. My father, a pilot and history enthusiast, would quiz me on world flags and maps, while my mother, who adores languages and books, played English music and films without subtitles to help me learn. Growing up, my sisters and I traveled frequently, which shaped our careers—while I became a political scientist and historical heritage interpreter, one sister became an architect, and the other an artist and designer. After moving between countries seven times, my family finally settled in Seville, a city I fell in love with when I was eight years old. I was mesmerized by its rich history and stunning architecture. Years later, I decided to specialize in Historical Heritage Interpretation at university so I could share my passion for this incredible city with others. In 2017, I started working in tourism as a cultural manager, designing tours. Many visitors would ask if I was a guide, so I decided to take the Tour Guide Public Exam. Now, as a certified tour guide, I bring history to life by blending real facts with fascinating legends, always adding my own personality to make the experience fun and engaging. My tours are never robotic or scripted; they are dynamic, entertaining, and full of passion for Seville’s heritage. I can also customize the tours to fit each traveler’s interests—your wish is my command! 🎓 I'm certified as Official Tour Guide via public examinations (I have three licenses: Guide ID Nº 2114, GA-5424 and GHP00256). 🏛 University Specialization Diploma in Historic Heritage Interpretation, with a Degree in Political Science and European Studies. I have a Masters Degree in International Relations; and another Masters Degree in Historic Heritage, Art and Museums (my thesis was about Jewish Heritage in Seville). ✡ Diploma in Jewish History of Spain, by the Jewish Quarters Network Association in Spain. 📜 I'm the first person to be professionally certified as Historical Heritage Interpreter in Andalucía via new public certifications. 📜 Diploma in Cultural Management. 📜 Diploma in Chinese for Tourism by the Government of Aragon (plus official certificate HSK3 -former B1- level of Mandarin Chinese) 🏛 Founder of a small Tour Agency: ALTAI Turismo Sevilla. 🗺 I'm listed in the Tourism Registration catalog of Andalusia. 🛡 I have a public liability insurance. I am not a driver. I do not organize excursions/transfers.

Overview of your Seville tour

Did you know that a big part of this city's heritage comes from the women who made history? There's no doubt Seville has a long history which makes it one of the most culturally rich cities in Spain, that's why I have personally designed a city tour in which we focus on the female point of view of important historical events of both Seville and Spain. I will show you all the hidden gems of Seville that represent all these women, from Roman-time martyrs, to a 15th century doctor, to the most powerful Queen in Spanish history; in an interactive way, with pictures, monuments and landmarks, so you can understand their historical context and lives. Want to discover this hidden side of history with me?
