Doing what: Seville Classical or Historical Morning Sightseeing Tour
Seville is a beautiful, seductive and interesting city, and it would have been wonderful to have had a good guide on this tour, as there is so much we would have liked to know, but unfortunately the lady who was our "guide", spoke such bad English, that half the time we could not understand a word that she said. She spoke a lot of Spanish, and seemed to rush through the English commentaries. Unfortunatly I did not get her name, otherwise I could have saved others this total waste of money.

Doing what: Seville Day Trip from the Costa del Sol
The bus tour guide would tell us a little about the areas we were passing as we were going to Seville (4 hr ride with stops), but he didn't make anything fun or interesting - just stating facts. Bus was comfortable. When we got to Seville, we were handed off to a local tour guide. We already had about 30-40 people in our group and then we got there, about 25 more people were told to join our group from another group b/c they only understood Italian. We requested an English tour guide. Not only did she (and the guide on the bus) have to speak English, but also French and Italian. They would jump from one language to another and we had to focus very hard on what they were saying because I had to wait for English to start. Sometimes the local tour guide would jump so much that I couldn't tell if she was speaking Italian, French, or English. She would tell a full story in another language and get to English and state one sentence. There was no chance for questions. It was hard to hear her since there were so many people and loud noises everywhere. Other tour groups had a tour guide with a speaker or headphones. Then they recommend a boat tour (you pay 14 euro extra) b/c there is nothing else going on in Seville from 2-5pm. It goes so slowly and they have a recording on that just states what buildings you are passing. Then on our ride home, they just left on the side of the street and told us to cross the bridge and find our hotel. Overall, glad I saw Seville, but I wouldn't recommend this at all.

Doing what: Guadalquivir River Cruise
This was misleading. 2-3 hrs. were spent touring parts of seville (bull ring) that I didn';t really want to see. Finally we went on the river cruise which I could have gotten independently and it was not run by our guidfe. BY the way, the guide was terrible. She spoke too fsst in both English and Spanish and was unintelligible and did not answer questions well..

The trip was fairly good, however it turned out to be a 14 hour day for us, and in my opinion this is way too long for what the city had to offer.

Doing what: Seville Day Trip from Granada
Great trip! Were picked up at hotel, driver was pleasant, spoke English, gave us travel tips, explained sights en route to Sevilla. When we met up with our tour guide in Sevilla, he was friendly, enthusiastic, and very knowledgeable about the sights and history of Granada. The tour was amazing. Our only complaint was we booked less than 24 hours before the tour left, and never got a final confirmation regarding our pickup place and time, and made multiple (expensive) phone calls to try to confirm details so had to get up extra early and just wait in the hotel lobby. We felt the trip was a little expensive and it would have been nice if this included lunch, but overall, a good trip.

This tour was great as we hadn't done our homework on Seville so it was full of pleasant surprises.

Loved this tour more than the Alhambra in Granada. Our guide was very knowledgable and had fantastic historical facts, and a great sense of humour. A highlight of our Spain trip.
