Start your adventure at Madrid’s Atocha station and board your train to Seville. The high-speed train journey allows you to reach Andalusia quickly and comfortably, giving you the chance to spend most of the day exploring Seville rather than travelling.
As the train leaves Madrid behind, watch the landscape change from that of the Spanish capital to the characteristic scenery of southern Spain. Upon arrival in Seville, head to the city’s historic centre to enjoy your guided tour.
Subject to availability, your main guided tour will be of the magnificent Real Alcázar of Seville, one of the city’s most important historical monuments and one of Spain’s most extraordinary royal palaces.
Step inside this spectacular complex and discover a fascinating blend of architectural styles and cultural influences that have evolved over the centuries. Your guide will explain the history of the palace and tell you about the legacy of the different civilisations and rulers who shaped Seville.
As you tour the palace complex, your guide will bring its history to life through stories and explanations that will help you understand the Alcázar’s significance in the history of Seville and in the heritage of the Spanish royal family.
Explore one of Spain’s most important monuments and discover its history, architecture and significance for Seville. Your guide will explain the various cultural influences reflected in the building.

After the guided tour of the monument, enjoy some free time to explore Seville at your own pace.
This is your chance to choose how you want to experience the city. Stroll through its historic streets, relax in one of its charming squares, savour traditional Andalusian cuisine, visit the local shops or simply soak up Seville’s lively atmosphere.
You can explore the picturesque streets of the historic centre, take photos of the city’s beautiful architecture or stop off at a local restaurant or café to sample some Andalusian cuisine.
