The Royal Alcázar of Seville

Without a doubt, the Royal Alcázar is one of the most beautiful places on the planet!

And I'm not the only one saying this—a Sevillian, a lover of art and history, an official tour guide, a painter… UNESCO says so, because the Royal Alcázar is part of the World Heritage Site Since 1987. The date on which the General Archive of the Indies and the Cathedral of Seville with its Giralda tower also joined this list of excellence.

It is located in right in the heart of Seville, very close to the two previous monuments, which also deserve a visit.

The audio guide tour at the Royal Alcázar

Not everyone has the ability or the desire to concentrate while listening to a voiceover on a machine and simultaneously trying to enjoy a place like the Alcázar From Seville. In my opinion, it's usually a bit tedious or tiring.

In my opinion, I prefer to fully enjoy what I'm seeing, without having to press the buttons of a device (we already have enough with the mobile phone or the camera).

I recommend Take the tour with an official tour guide. A charming, expert guide who will make you enjoy and learn from everything you see on the tour, without you having to worry about anything.

By forming a group of friends or family, the price isn't much more expensive than hiring the audio guide. Furthermore, we contribute to society, betting on quality tourism and on professionals in the sector who have fought so hard in these years of pandemic, in their training and specialization.
