As a historian I like to show the monuments of the city but I especially enjoy talking about our local culture. This is Sevilla, so we can talk about soccer, tapas, processions, flamenco, and of course, our wines! I like to visit places that normally are not included in the traditional visitor's circuit. Let me take you to the charming market of Feria Street, a cloister convent where to eat a sweet. The views from the other side of the river are beautiful, specially if you go during the "blue hour". I love to travel all the time. I have been in UK, France, Italy, Egypt, Frech Polynesia, India, Madison Wisconsin, New York City, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, Croatia, Portugal, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Cerdeña, Córcega, Sicily, Ireland, Canada, . . . I got married in 2006 and have two beautiful princesses, Elsa (2012) and Emma (2017). History and music are an important part of my life. I am lucky to live in Sevilla but really lucky because my job it is to show you not only the monuments , the gastronomy but specially the soul of Sevilla. Forget about the time, we need no maps, just enjoy as we are in Sevilla! History degree (1993-1998) Official licensed guide since 2001. Manager of a tourist company since 1999.

Archeological Tour from Seville The first roman city in Spain
Overview of your Seville tour
If you like History and roman ruins, leaving Sevilla without visiting Italica would be a sin. It is only 9 kilometres from Sevilla. The treasure of the place is the third roman anphitheatre of the roman empire, up to 25. 000 spectators. Gladiators and exotic beasts fighted there, did they also represented navy battles ? We just need to know that it was the birthplace of the roman emperors Trajan and Hadrian to get to know the great importance of this emblematic place. As a historian let me show you the roman toiletes, the games they played at the entrance of the anphiteather or the sculptures discovered in Italica. I will show you with my tablet videos where to compare the ruins and a reconstruccion of Italica in the roman period.
