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.

Manuel is the perfect guide. Knowledgeable, great english, extremely pleasant appearance. We had a great time walking around Seville for a couple of hours getting an idea, and a birds view so to speak, of the long and exciting history of this beautiful city. Highly recommended!
This was a great introduction and overview of Seville with our wonderful tour guide Manuel. He was very enthusiastic and easy to understand. In addition, Manual was knowledgeable, personable, a great sense of humor and easy to follow when it came to the historic background of Spain. Don't miss booking him, he's great!
Manuel gave us a wonderful, informative, interesting walking tour of Seville. It was a hot day, and he was kind enough to meet us a little earlier in the morning, and during our walk ensured we had plenty of shade. He gave us a great overview of this fantastic city, we covered a lot of ground and a lot of subjects, he was informative, polite and our tour seemed to zip past in no time at all. His English is perfect, and he helped make our first trip to Seville an experience we will never forget.
Manuel, a native of Seville, is a good story teller, who made the historical importance of Seville come alive for us, while enjoying the 2 1/2 hour stroll around the old city. He has loads of knowledge about Seville from the early days to the present, but did not overwhelm us with too many names and dates.. Instead we experienced the city through his eyes and got a real sense of how it is to live in Seville today. We also came away with a deep appreciation for Seville's role in the history of the world.
Excellent tour. Manuel is very knowledgeable of Seville- history, art, architecture- threads his stories Together in very interesting way. And he's fun! Thank you Manuel!
