Overview

Learn the history behind the beautiful Seville in this 2-hour Private walking tour that focuses on a big proportion in the Spanish Golden Age (from the 16th to the late 17th Century) when this city was considered the gateway to America. Discover that historical stage Seville went through with an expert local guide as you stroll by its main squares and landmarks.

From the 16th century until the 18th century, Seville was the most important city in the world. It was considered the “entrance of America”. When the conquerors went to the Atlantic and Pacific areas and engaged in commercial activities, this city was effectively capital of the world; with everything from America to Europe and from Europe to America passing through the Port of Seville.

Come and join us to learn what happened here; how this city was and how it has impacted the history of the world. We will take you to the Arenal quarter (harbor area) and Triana to discover what happened, all of its legends and its secrets.
