Seville’s two great monuments stand face to face – and this tour covers both in one morning. Together with the Archive of the Indies, the Real Alcázar and the Cathedral are a UNESCO World Heritage site.

What you will see

  • The Real Alcázar, a royal palace in Mudéjar style, with carved courtyards, tiled halls and lush gardens.
  • The Cathedral, the largest Gothic cathedral in the world, with the tomb of Christopher Columbus.
  • The Giralda, the former minaret, climbed by ramps for a view over the rooftops.

Why this tour?

  • Skip-the-line entry to both monuments, which have long queues in high season.
  • A licensed local guide for the history of Muslim, Christian and Jewish Seville.

  • Book a morning slot in summer, before the heat.
