Great trip!!!!!! Highly recommend!!!! good tour guide, and great to learn more about Jewish history. Small group, pretty streets, gorgeous atmosphere.

This was our introduction to Seville but was pretty limited. We covered a very small area with minimal information. His English was sometimes hard to understand.

Short overview. Could have been more informative . Our guide was very nice but wasn’t familiar enough with history details.

Jonathan_T

Underwhelming. Not much more to say really. Don’t know why the app keeps wanting me to add. So simply hitting some random keys bbbbbbb b.

Although my wife and I were the only ones to join the tour, our guide Daniel took every trouble to ensure we were shown the sights including some secret corners of the Santa Cruz area that we would otherwise have missed. He was very good at explaining the unusual features, such as mill stones that had been used to reinforce the walls of the houses crowding the narrow streets. The public gardens were closed due to high winds the previous day - you can't blame Daniel for that. At 90 minutes long, the walking tour was just right for our sightseeing appetites and stamina.

Sara was an excellent guide with great knowledge of Jewish history in Sevilla. The references to Jews contributions to Spain throughout the centuries, the references to opera, and the gardens were amazing!

Eileen_S

Learning some of the history of how Jews were driven from Sevilla and seeing the old streets. The woman who decapitated herself was the most memorable.

Very underwhelming tour. Our tour guide was not well informed on the “Jewish history” or indeed the history of the neighborhood at all. He had perhaps 2 or 3 stories and the rest of the time we walked around the quarter with minimal historical background. We passed by several other tour guides from other companies who were getting a lot more information as they walked around!

Our walk with Donny was beautiful and a nice way to start off our stay in the neighborhood! Donny had a good grasp of the history of the neighborhood! A grat was to get acclimated Thanks!

I pre booked this tour as I was looking forward to hearing about the old Jewish quarter of Seville Santa Cruz The guide Daniel was a nice guy but his English was not up to standard nor was his knowledge of the “Jewish history” of the area. So disappointed I could have read more prior to,the tour had we known his rapporteur was so limited. The tour was supposed to be 1.5 hours he completed it in just an hour Certainly not the price was in question more the tour itself needs to be rebranded “walking tour of Santa Cruz”. With a guide book and prior knowledge one can do this on your own
