Guided tour of Italica

From the entrance to the archaeological site in the municipality of Santiponce, Naturanda will begin the tour of the fascinating ancient Roman city of Italica.
A city founded in 206 BC by General Publius Cornelius Scipio ‘the African’, which played an important role in taking in wounded members of the legions after the Battle of Ilipa against the Carthaginians in the Second Punic War.
The archaeological site of Italica was of great importance in the Roman world, in ancient Hispania, hence its significance. Today, Italica is the most important archaeological site in the province of Seville.
Once in Italica, our official guide will give you a brief introduction to the site, and we will then venture into the ancient city to discover all its secrets and help you interpret the site. Ancient streets, mosaics, thermal baths, and houses—such as Neptune’s House—are just some of the wonders preserved there that we will have the opportunity to discover.
We will discover the famous Amphitheatre, one of the largest in the world with a capacity for 25,000 spectators, where the famous gladiator fights took place. In recent years, it has become much more popular as it has been part of the setting for the popular series Game of Thrones. Our visitors will have the option of walking around the ‘arena’ and inside its galleries, transporting themselves more than 2,000 years back in time to the Roman era.
Remember that if you don’t have a way to get to Santiponce or simply want us to pick you up in Seville to enjoy this tour, you can book our guided tour with transport and also visit the nearby medieval monastery of San Isidoro del Campo on the same excursion.
