Doing what: Seville Electric Bike Tour
Riding and electric bike for this tour is one of the most fun things that I have done in a long time. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about Seville and Spain history and culture. He provided a variety of information including details about the 1929
Spain and Latin American fair, movies filmed at famous locations in Seville, local plants and trees, cathedrals, and so on. It was really fun riding through beautiful Seville on the electric bikes--the best of both worlds--the breeze in your face, but a small amount of exersion. Highly recommended.,

Doing what: Seville Day Trip from the Costa del Sol
Something went wrong and my friend and I did not get on the Seville trip, but instead we were offered the trip to Granada, which was a trip we really enjoyed. The bus was wonderful, the guide who spoke spanish, french, english and italian was really good and the female guide we had in "the Alhambra" was amazing. Sweet and attentive to everyone on the trip. Everything was so beautiful and I would definitely book another trip with Viator, if I come back to Costa del sol.

Too much time spent picking up other tourists en route to Seville.
Travel time each way was at least 3.5 hours--way too long.
Maybe there should be a central meeting point when the distance to the travel destination (in this case Marbella to Seville) is so far.
In fact, my travel partner got motion sickness and couldn't travel the following day on her pre-paid Viator Ronda trip.
Also, having the tour guide speak in three languages (French/German/English) gave too little time for a fuller English explanation.

Another great day, private transfer from Granada to Seville, then we were the only ones on the tour. well worth the 2.5hr journey to see this. Tour lasted around 2.5hrs then we had free time for lunch, more sightseeing on our own

Local guide was hard to understand. Would had been helpful if maps were provided to help find our way around the old town district.

Enjoyed the trip. Only concerns were no notice of trip cancellation, fortunately was able to re-schedule for 2 days later. Also lunch stop was late, around 2pm.

Our guide, Antonio, was prompt and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed his vast scope of expertise from history to botany. he also had amusing anecdotes and insider information. We highly recommend this tour.

Doing what: Seville Day Trip from the Costa del Sol
We were picked up at 07:10 but we did not arrive in Seville until nearly 12:00. On the return journey it also took nearly five hours, making nearly ten hours on the journeys. If we had known this we would have hired a car and had much more time in Seville.
The trip was supposed to be English based. What happened in fact was that the guides presented everything in three languages, French, Spanish and English. This became very boring and irritating after a while, and we were not the only ones who felt so, particularly when English became the third language and the least used. The majority of travellers were English speaking so it didn't make sense.
Finally, instructions that were given by the guide who travelled on the coach were often unclear and sometimes misleading. Americans on the trip became very frustrated.
All in all a very disappointing tour, and one not to be repeated.

Also a good tour with Michael and Paloma in Seville. She was very good. We asked to go to Plaza Espana and think that should be included routinely.

Nice combination of bus and walking. Bus to get to the far away things like Plaza Espana - a must see and walking around within the Santa cruz historical area. Good opportunity to rest/take resfreshments and use facilities which is important in a 3 hour tour. My only issue was that the tour we had booked was advertised as being in English when in fact most of the talking was done in Spanish with a shortened English version afterwards. the tour leader tried her best to get both languages out quickly but the reality was that sometimes we had passed the particular site when the English version came out. I think it would be better to have a morning group in one language and an afternoon one in the other. Enjoyable none the less and without a car we would have found it difficult to get around all the sights in our short 2 day stay in Seville.
