Really interesting and enjoyable walking tour. Our guide Miguel shared loads of interesting info about Seville past and present. We started on the river and talked about how Seville has evolved since the time of the Romans and its historical importance as Spain’s dominant port city. Then we crossed over and explored Triana, its distinct evolution and its local history. It was all fascinating and brought the area to life in a way that would not have been the case if we had just wandered by ourselves. Miguel was a super guide, with a great sense of humour and turn of phrase. We highly recommend this tour to learn about Seville in general and Triana in particular.

Triana was a real surprise and well worth a visit if you're in Seville. Our guide, Carmen, was great and really brought the stories to life. Very interesting and certainly recommended.

Snappler66

Great riverside location with bar to match. Very helpful & polite staff, felt like they really appreciated our custom. Family of five, all starters, mains & drinks were excellent & filling, good value too. Fine dining in a beautiful restaurant & location. A few drinks at the riverside bar afterwards finished off a very enjoyable evening. Excellent all round, looking forward to our next visit.

If Carmen María is leading the tour, I'm on it! She was so super knowledgeable and super fun. Carmen took us to all the best, off the beaten path spots, and had great stories to tell about each one.

johnbX402YI

We had an excellent tour with our guide Carmen! She did an excellent job explaining the history and importance of the Triana district throughout the history of the city, including some really interesting tidbits of trivia. She provided some really great insights into the city, and made the tour fun and relatable. Would definitely recommend this tour! We also went to a tapas restaurant she recommended during the tour, and it was excellent!

louisah646

We really enjoyed our tour of Triana with Carmen in the first week of May. Carmen was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide, and we found out lots about the district of Triana. Would really recommend doing a guided tour around this area so you can fully appreciate its rich and interesting history. Without a knowledgeable tour guide like Carmen, this could be overlooked (given there are few traditional ‘monuments’). The tour groups are small so you have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and explore areas of interest. Would 100% recommend!

Marcy G

Carmen our guide was enthusiastic, personable and very knowledgeable about history. She was willing to tailor her comments to our interests as well. We also bought the Seville guidebook on Amazon that the founder wrote. We paid on their website well in advance and they were responsible about communicating to meet up with us the day of the tour. Seems to be a well managed, responsible tour company with well trained/educated guides.

We absolutely loved the “Discover the river & the secrets of Triana quarter” walk with Clara. She was so friendly and engaging and knowledgeable. Could not recommend more highly - book this walk and you will not be disappointed!

We met Carmen at the meeting point for our tour. She was the best guide we’ve had in our entire trip, very knowledgeable and making the history come alive. We enjoyed very much our experience and booked other tours with Seville Unique Experiences, always with small groups and very personalised. Highly recommended!
