The Real Alcázar of Seville, declared a World Heritage Site in 1987 along with the Archivo de Indias and the Cathedral of Seville, is one of those places that are engraved in the memory and in the retina, along with the stories – imaginary or real – that have been lived and portrayed in it.
This guided tour takes place in a small group of a maximum of 12 people, ideal to enjoy a closer, more comfortable and personalised experience.
The setting for films and the series “Game of Thrones”, the Alcázar includes highlights such as the Prince’s Garden, the Courtyard of the Maidens, the Admiral’s Hall, the Upper Royal Room and the Courtyard of La Montería.
The origins of the Royal Alcazar date back to the High Middle Ages, and it still preserves areas of Islamic art that are impressive for their delicacy. However, the Mudejar art and the Gothic style are the main features that give it its uniqueness.
Over the centuries, Renaissance and Baroque elements were added. It was in the 14th century when King Don Pedro ordered the Almohad palaces to be demolished in order to build a new palace in the Mudejar style, next to the Gothic palace of Alfonso X, which was to be his Royal House. It is considered to be one of the oldest royal palaces in Europe still in use today.
For centuries it has been the residence of the Spanish Royal Family in Seville and, nowadays, it continues to be a space reserved for royalty, except during sightseeing tours.
Accompanied by an official Naturanda guide, in this small group tour we will discover all the secrets, legends and architectural details of the palace and its lush gardens.
We will stroll through its halls, courtyards and royal rooms, visiting emblematic corners such as the baths of María Padilla or the pond of Mercury, while we learn about the surprising stories that have shaped this unique place.
The tour ends in the gardens of the Real Alcázar, where you can enjoy the surroundings at your own pace after the explanation.
Enjoy an unforgettable experience in a small group!
