Overview

Seville, city of 3 cultures, is a unique tour created by me. Approaching the most unknown history of Seville, from Nebuchadnezzar to Juan I. You will know how the Jews arrived in Spain, how the Muslims arrived, how the reconquest of Seville by the Castilians was, who was Ramón de Bonifaz. How Jews, Muslims and Christians lived in the different courts, we will focus on the Sephardim and the primitive Jewish quarter.
You will meet historical figures that you did not know and that marked their time.
