Visiting Seville is mainly visiting its Historic Center, which is one of the largest in Europe, with almost 4 square kilometers in area. It includes the following neighborhoods, El Arenal, Encarnación-Regina, Alfalfa, San Bartolomé, San Lorenzo, San Gil, Museo, Santa Catalina, Santa Cruz, Feria, San Julián and San Vicente. In this extension are the main buildings and monuments of a civic, religious and cultural nature, among which are churches, convents and civil and unique buildings.
This Historic Center acquired its first splendor in Roman times and like almost all Roman cities, Roman Seville or Híspalis was divided into very orderly rectilinear streets. There was a main axis that went from north to south and was called Cardo maximum and another axis that crossed that and went from east to west, called Decumanus maximum. In the center, a central square that corresponded to the forum and this square was located under the current Plaza de la Alfalfa.
Pointing out these historical axes is not trivial since in our service of showing the City of Seville we intend for it to be known from its origins, why it has this layout, how the main points of interest are in the historical axes and in the neighborhoods that They converged around the zero point of the historic city, which is currently the Plaza de la Encarnación-Alfalfa, a crossing point for many of the tours we offer.
The tours run either around the historic center or inside it. Initially we propose the one around the historic center and in the near future we will complement it with tours within the historic center
Choose the one you like best and then select your departure and pick-up point.

The other Seville of the Sevillians
Many of us who live in Seville would choose this itinerary, which runs mainly through the southeast wing, perhaps through areas that are less universally known but that show the pure essence of the city. Starting from the Encarnación Square in the heart of the historic center, it momentarily leaves it along Alfonso XIII Street, Guadalquivir river. After a tour of the Isla de la Cartuja, access the historic center again through the Pasarela de la Cartuja bridge to the San Vicente Neighborhood, passing by the Basilica of Jesús del Gran Poder, the Alameda de Hércules Square and La Campana Square until his return to the Encarnación Square.
