Welcome to Seville: the Port of the Indies, door to America and city of the Opera! My name is Enrique and I invite you to live together a unique experience where you will find mixed history and art with important doses of humour, legends and traditions. Let me show you the mystery and magic of this city through my stories and anecdotes! After getting a diploma in tourism from the University of Seville (1992), I started my career as a tour guide in 1993, when I obtained my official license. I combined this profession with other jobs in the industry, including travel agencies and hotels, always looking for new challenges. Due to personal events, I joined my family business in 2000, working in the industrial market, something different from what I have done in the past. The good side was that I got to travel a lot, attending trade shows and strengthening business partnerships with several factories abroad. Because of this, I lived for six months in Turkey, three months in Morocco and one month in Romania. I frequently visited countries like Germany, Italy and France as well. This period of my life contributed to my personal growth, giving me the tools to better understand diverse cultures, and to widen my horizons, seeing history and culture from different points of view. Back in Seville, I decided to come back to my beloved profession of tourist guide, being fully dedicated to it for the last nine years. So if you want to get a local perspective of the city, come with me and don't waste your valuable time in long queues to visit our monuments. Skip the lines with me and be ready for something different, because I don't guide tours, I make history come alive! -Diploma in Tourism 1992. -Official tourist guide license in Andalusia 1993. Nº1790 -I regularly give tours to guests of luxury hotels in Seville. -In Cádiz, Huelva and Seville ports I work with luxury cruises. -President of AUITS, official guides major association of Seville. No restrictions. I am an offical licensed guide in Seville and Andalusia. I am allowed to give tours inside historical monuments.

Starting in Plaza del Triunfo ("Triumph Square" in English) I will tell you about the historical event that was the reason for that name. After that, we will visit the Unesco World Heritage sites in Seville. First The Royal Alcazar, where thanks to my stories you will enjoy the wonderful palaces through the life of those who habitated them. Personalities such as king Peter the Cruel, The Catholic Monarchs, Cristopher Columbus or the Holy Roman Emperor Charles of Habsburg will introduce you to the amazing architecture of the oldest royal residence in the world still used. Then we will cross the square to know the interior of the largest Cathedral in the world, built on the site of the former main mosque of the city. Inside its walls, we will admire artworks of the best Spanish painters and sculptors and will visit the final resting place of relevant personalities of history.
Thank you Enrique for showing us your wonderful city. We were a group of 6 who fell in love with the charm and beauty of Seville. Your expertise and enthusiasm gave us a deeper appreciation for the culture and history of this city. We loved touring the Royal Alcazar and the Cathedral and learning about Christopher Columbus's burial history. It was a great day and we were glad we picked the head of all the guides in Seville for our tour.
Enrique was a fantastic tour guide in Seville. He grew up and has lived there his whole life giving him deep knowledge of the people and the area. He was kind and was able to navigate our travels as we had a 1 year old baby with us. I highly recommend booking with Enrique! He knew the best time for the Cathedral and the Palace before they got too busy and he had wonderful knowledge of both areas. We learned a great deal while also having a lovely time.
Enrique took us on an excellent tour of the Alcazar starting with the beautiful Triumph Square. Seville is a magical place brought to life by Enrique through his wonderful knowledge of this area. My group loved Enrique and were so happy we booked two tours with him! He is the best!
Fantastic tour and highly recommended! Our very professional and outstanding tour guide Enrique knew the history and clearly provided the context behind the two important sites we visited. We gained a much deeper appreciation of the significance of Seville to Spain and the world.
Enrique was fabulous! I chose him specifically due to the tour he offered and his other glowing reviews. He did not disappoint. Enrique was incredibly personable, knowledgeable, patient, communicative, flexible and professional. Our group learned so much, I highly recommend taking his tour!
The tour of Alcazar and the cathedral with Enrique is something I will always treasure. Neither of these beautiful special places should be missed on a visit to Sevilla. And Enrique taught me much about the fascinating history of the Iberian Peninsula.
