Hi there! I'm Carlos, former world traveller, creative entrepreneur and now official licensed tour guide! Being a former cabin crew for a major airline has given me the edge to get to know different cultures and people all over the planet, this and also, having a Bachelor in History and Anthropology by the University of Sevilla has given me a deep understanding of the rich and ancient Culture of this land.  Now that I've decided to hang my wings-sort of speaking- as an official licensed tour guide so you can truly experience the beauties of this 2800 years old city. Gateway to the New World, Seville still holds that flair, that uniqueness that makes a traveller always wanting to come back. whether if its architecture, History, flamenco, Renaissance, Barroco what you are looking for, or if you are a foodie, then this city has you covered. And a local guide would offer you that edge, that point of view that can open the path to new ideas, hey! the great Opera Carmen was inspired by a book that was inspired by the idiosincrasy of this city! move like a local, away from the beaten path. But of course, some things are a must. Like the Alcazar or the Cathedral. So come with me we'll skip lines and live the experience with a twist!

Overview of your Seville tour

Let's explore together the Alhambra Qalat Al-Hamra (The Red One) Located on a hilltop that dominates the plains, built originally in AD 889 (approx) as a small fortress with recycled materials from a Roman fortification. Then sort of abandoned until mid 1200's when the emir of Granada decide to use this location for his court and residence and he sent to build the palace and walls. Later converted into Royal Palace by the Sultan Yusuf I. Then after the Reconquista by the Catholic Kings it became the court for Isabel and Fernando. Unesco World Heritage since 1984. Abandoned for some time until the romantic explorers of the XIX Century discovered the beauty that lies under. Today it's the No1 visited monument in Spain. Located in a superb position dominating the plains. Explore the palace with a local and discover how muslims back then improved the quality of life in a way that we still enjoy today. Let me show you the delicate and itricate beauty of the decoration and the location! Are you ready to join me?
