Čo robiť v Seville

The meeting point was clear and the itinerary was well-planned. However, the departure was delayed, and the tour guide didn't show up at the designated time. The tour company also didn't proactively inform us, causing travelers to repeatedly go into the office to inquire. Eventually, another guide had to go find our actual guide, which was a very frustrating process. Aside from that, the itinerary itself ran very smoothly.

Visiting the Royal Alcázar of Seville is an unforgettable excursion filled with history and beauty. As you enter, you are surrounded by intricate Moorish architecture, delicate arches, and colorful tilework that reflect centuries of culture. The peaceful courtyards, like the famous Patio de las Doncellas, offer a calm escape from the city’s noise. Walking through the royal chambers, you can imagine the lives of kings and queens who once lived there. The lush gardens, filled with fountains, orange trees, and peacocks, make the experience even more magical. It is a perfect place to explore, learn, and admire timeless art and design.

I really couldn’t speak highly enough of this tour. Our guide Lorena was friendly and knowledgeable. Paco was a very safe driver. The whole tour was well thought out and timed. Really worth it and a must in my opinion if you are visiting Seville.

Sevilla je veľmi krásne mesto. Plné histórie a kultúry. Môžeme vidieť trojicu arabskej, židovskej a kresťanskej kultúry spojenú v jednom. Náš sprievodca Sama-el bol veľmi dobre informovaný o pamiatkach. Alcázar sa mi veľmi páčil. Oplatí sa pripojiť k skupine. Len veľmi horúce počasie (dosahujúce 43 °C) robí pešiu prehliadku trochu náročnou. Inak dávam tejto prehliadke, najmä nášmu sprievodcovi Sama-elovi, dva palce hore. Vrelo odporúčam.

Stepping inside the church, one is instantly transported from the scorching Andalusian sun into a tranquil and solemn sanctuary. Looking up, the towering Gothic arches stretch and intertwine like colossal trees carved from stone. Sunlight streams through the stained-glass windows, casting colorful halos onto the mottled stone floor. At the deepest part of the nave is the breathtaking main altarpiece (Retablo Mayor). Countless gilded statues intricately depict biblical stories, shimmering in the faint candlelight, exuding a quiet yet powerful force. However, the most striking feature within the church is undoubtedly the Tomb of Columbus. Statues of the four Spanish kings—Castile, Leon, Aragon, and Navarre—bear the navigator's coffin aloft. Standing before the tomb, the stark contrast between the tumultuous age of maritime power and this serene hall evokes a profound sense of the ebb and flow of time and history.

Our day in Seville was almost perfect. The Cathedral and the Royal Alcázar were indescribably beautiful, and the architecture of the old town was magnificent. Its planning and layout were textbook perfect. Although the tickets for the Cathedral and the Royal Alcázar weren't cheap, they were definitely worth it! The Royal Alcázar had a very Indian feel to it, completely different from the mainstream European palace architectural style.

This is a great show, only ensure that you reach 60 mins before to get good seats and the ability to see the performers legs properly. Highly recommended to anyone looking to learn about the dance’s history and enjoy the performance as well.

Predstavenie trvalo približne hodinu a ponúklo dobrú ukážku flamencových krokov. Jediný problém je, že pri vstupenkách rezervovaných cez KLook budeme pridelení do posledných radov divadla, takže možno nebudete mať možnosť pozrieť sa zblízka. Ale rezervácia cez KLook je dobrá voľba pre rozpočtové možnosti!

Alcazar a Flamenco som si zaobstaral cez klook pass. Bolo to fajn, pretože som ušetril nejaké peniaze namiesto individuálnej rezervácie týchto dvoch aktivít. Alcazar bol veľký, uistite sa, že si so sebou vezmete pas/občiansky preukaz a vodu počas letnej sezóny, pretože je tam naozaj horúco. Užívali sme si aj flamenco show počas nášho posledného dňa v Seville.
