Dear guest, This city is Sevilla. My city. Welcome to the most important mixture of cultures that you can find in the south of Europe. My name is Manuel, I was born in Sevilla 47 years ago and since the last academic year I have been interested to work as a tour guide. My education and experience has always been related to tourism and customer relations. Diploma in Tourism (1995), and Bachelor degree in Art History (2004) of the University of Seville, and Official Tourist Guide Licence in Andalusia (2000). (License #888) I worked as a Tour leader during two years. Morover during five years I have been working as a travel agent in several travel agencies in Sevilla, I have a proven experience in this field and for seven years I pursued my work in one of the Ayuntamientos (equivalent to a town hall) of the Province of Seville as an official in tourism and culture. For the last years I have concentrated on working as a freelance private guide in the beautiful city of Seville. My private visit with you: Whenever I travel around the world as a tourist, I have some kind of obsession with finding the origin of every city, from where it comes its architectural legacy, the essence of its monuments, their traditions and gastronomy… If you come to Sevilla, I take your place as well. I always try to get the visitor's attention and be just another tourist enjoying the visit. My job consists on making sure that the client enjoys his/her holidays and that he gets closer to the essence of this incredible city. My objective: I consider myself as a companion, a friend. I enjoy my work very much so I try to transmit that to the client. My biggest objective is that you don't forget that you have to have fun. That you came to another city to get to know it in a private tour, but also to rest from your daily routine in your city. I am waiting for you! -Diploma in Tourism (1995). -Bachelor degree in Art History (2004) of the University of Seville. -Official Tourist Guide Licence in Andalusia (2000). (Reg. 888) No restrictions. I´m an official private local guide in my city(License #888). I am allowed to give tours inside the historical monuments.

On july 8, 1401, Catholic ecclesiastical authorities in Sevilla decided "to raise a church so big that those who see it shall think we are mad". With this legendary sentence the high ecclesiastical rank decides to built a great cathedral for the city of Seville. Today, we have the opportunity to visit the temple of gothic style with the largest surface built in the entire world, only surpassed by Saint Peter's in Rome and Saint Paul's in London. Sevilla once enjoyed one of the most extraordinary palace halls of the old Al-Andalus (Muslim Spain). Let me show you what's left of all that and explain you the legends and stories that are hidden behind their walls. In addition, little by little you will learn to discern among its streets and palaces one of the Kingdoms of GAME OF THRONES!! Are you ready to discover SANTA CRUZ SECTION? Jewish quarters were located all around medieval Spain (SEFARAD, in their language) and a long time ago the jewish community in Sevilla was one of the most relevant.
-We will start the tour next to the GIRALDA TOWER (Bell tower of the cathedral), located in the very popular PLAZA VIRGEN DE LOS REYES. -Firstable, we will visit the Royal Palace (Alcazar) inside, then, time to take a stroll through the narrowest streets of Sevilla. -Barrio de Santa Cruz. It was the ancient jewish section of the medieval city. -Finally, you will enjoy the guided visit inside the CATHEDRAL, climbing on your own the very famous GIRALDA tower. Please contact me for a customized tour!
