Seville Adventure: Historic Walking Tour & Traditional Tapas

Begin your tour at the Plaza del Triunfo by the Cathedral, where you will be introduced to the rich history of Sevilla. Here, your guide will explain the significance of the Archivo de Indias, the 12th-century main mosque, and the Alcazar, providing insights into the city’s Islamic and Christian heritage. A short 100-meter walk takes you to Puerta del Perdón and Alcaicería de la Seda, a 12th-century indoor Muslim market, where you can learn about how Sevilla’s citizens lived during the 500 years of Islamic rule. This area offers a fascinating glimpse into the cultural and economic life of the city during a pivotal period in its history.

From there, continue to El Salvador to explore its 9th-century Aljama Mosque and the original main dock from Roman times. This historic site is not only rich in architectural and cultural significance but also provides a perfect opportunity to enjoy a traditional “tapa” and drink in an authentic abacería, an ancient tavern that has retained the charm and character of old Sevilla. This stop combines history, gastronomy, and local culture, giving visitors a full sensory experience of the city’s past.

Before concluding your journey, visit Santa Catalina to learn about the mudéjar architectural style, a unique blend of Arabic and Christian influences that is characteristic of much of Sevilla’s historical buildings. The final highlight is the Metropolitan Mushroom, a modern architectural marvel, where you can step up and take in the spectacular skyline of the city. From ancient mosques and markets to contemporary landmarks, this tour offers a comprehensive exploration of Sevilla’s history, culture, and architectural diversity.
