When booking this tour we selected English as the tour language. We found out that it was Spanish,English and French. Very disappointing.The focus seemed to be on the Spanish speaking participants. Could not hear the guide as she was very soft spoken. She needed a microphone and we needed hearing devices We missed a lot of what she was saying. We were not pleased with this tour at all. We did not feel we learned much at all of the historical sights. I would make sure anyone taking this tour checked on the language spoken and not a combination

The tour could have been very interesting, as Seville is a beautiful city but the guide was very hard to understand and spoke to fast. All on tour were English speaking except for one. Tour guide spoke as if reading from a script and there wasn't spontaneity as we have grown accustomed to on other Viator tours.

I definitely overpaid for this. We only received 1 hour instead of the 2 that was advertised. We met our tour guide at the river instead of the tower as originally stated on our confirmation. When I found out that the price of the cruise was only 16 euros per person yet I paid over 300 euros for the hour I was upset. My guide was extremely nice but not worth what I paid...I would not recommend this to anyone...I would tell people to go on the cruise by yourself...with no guide...they described everything on the cruise anyway...everything he was saying was what the cruise announcer was saying...I was extremely disappointed and feel that I was ripped off...sad because I had a great time in Sevilla except for this experience.

The tour was enjoyable. The group was late to confirm this tour and left me a message on my mobile phone after I was already in Spain telling me where to meet the group, as I was driving in from a neighboring town. The hotel where they indicated sounded like it was well known from the message, but when I got lost and asked several Sevillanos they didn't know the hotel or the plaza. I missed the pickup but after contacting the tour office they tell me where to go to meet up with the rest of the tour. The tour guide was knowledgeable but spoke a tad to quick for my mother to understand.

Great tour! Very informative. They sent a whole bus for the four of us. They only down side was we had a mix-up with the pick up point which made for a late start. We were told to meet the tour at a hotel and we waited about a hour, finally called the local tour company only to find we had been staring at the empty bus down the street not knowing it was meant for us. No makings on the bus.

Good tour although you only get a short amount of time in Seville.

The tour was great. I would do it again. The fact that is half by bus and half walking is what makes it interesting. In addition, the visit to the world largest cathedral makes the whole tour worhthwhile.

Would not recommend. Requested Engligh tour and it was combined with English and Spanish, difficult to tell when one ended and the next language started. Tour guide on cell phone multiple times, didn't seem attentive to tour participants. Wanted to get our money back for the afternoon tour as didn't want a repeat, would not honor request since prepaid, offered another tour the next day but we weren't going to be there.

NIce tour of historic Seville. Guide did not introduce himself, guided more in Spanish than in English, even after we made a remark of this.

Tour was excellent. But had to wait an hour for bus and tour ended at last location --The Cathedral which was quiet a distance from my hotel. Last year I was collected and returned to my hotel which I think is one of the big advantages of Viator

We have one guide speaking 4 languages and it was too hard for him to say everything 4 times so everybody in the group to understand. At times he skipped some info because he didn't have time to say it in all the languages. I appreciate his work , but the trips should be made for people who speak the same language. Don't think we saw the best parts of Seville.
