18th of October: bespoke tour program of Seville
–
2:30pm: meet your personal local host at Alfonso XIII hotel in Seville (easy to get to, known by every taxi driver in town, worth seeing and with toilets inside) to start a private walking tour that will take you to the most impressive World Heritages Sites of the city (the Alcazar and the Cathedral with its Giralda tower) and to the quarter of Santa Cruz.

You will start your discovery journey by visiting the Alcazar, which is a massive complex of palaces erected in different periods and of breath-taking gardens of different styles. The Alcazar has stunning historical constructions featuring a very particular crossover between Hispanic-Muslim and Christian architecture styles, called Mudejar. This style became very fashionable in Spain in the 14th and 15th centuries amongst the Christian nobility and it reached its maximum splendour in Seville. Another essential part of the Alcazar is the famous house of Trade, which once hosted the offices from where all the commerce with the new world was managed. After enjoying these inner areas, you will be taken to the gardens, which are an exquisite sample of European landscaping from the 16th until the 20th centuries.

Then you will be taken to visit the Cathedral, which is the largest gothic temple in the World and where Christopher Columbus is buried. The Cathedral of Seville was built on a vast extension of land where previously a Mosque had been erected. An important part of the Mosque was preserved and it is now a part of the Cathedral. This makes it a unique construction featuring styles as diverse as Hispanic-Muslim, Gothic, Renaissance, Neoclassical and Baroque. A most important part of the Cathedral is its bell tower known as la Giralda. During your tour you will be taken to the top in order to enjoy the wonderful views of Seville that one can admire from there.

To finish you will visit the quarter of Santa Cruz, with its countless quaint corners, narrow streets, cosy squares, houses of traditional Southern Spanish architecture and Moorish urban planning. It is in this quarter where an important part of the Jewish Sephardic community of Seville lived in the mediaeval times and you will learn about what life in the quarter was like then and how it has evolved until becoming what it is today.

6:30pm: end of your tour and free time for leisure before your evening flamenco show.

7:15pm: be ready at the door of a selected flamenco venue in Seville old town (we will give you directions, so you can get there easily on foot), collect your tickets (we will have booked them for you in advance) and enter the venue.

7:30pm: flamenco show starts with 4 artists onstage (2 dances, 1 guitarist and 1 singer).

8:30pm: end of the flamenco show and of your tour. We will give you recommendations of places to have dinner in Seville.
