About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- jocR5557XF0 contributionsUnforgettable, unmissable experienceWonderful evening arranged by a friendly and efficient company who know exactly the right places to go in Seville. Our guide Constanza was just lovely, and we spent the evening enjoying tapas and flamenco just as the locals do. We felt totally immersed in the culture, passion and life of Seville. We can’t recommend this enough for travellers who want to experience local life and not through a tourist lens. Thank you so much for this unforgettable evening!Written September 13, 2024
- Curious232119398920 contributionsThe Cordoba trip was one of the highlights of our visit to Andalusia. The UNESCO sites especially the Mosque was superbOscar from ‘Not just a tourist’ was so interesting talking to us on the drive to Cordoba about life and politics in Spain. His experience as a chef also helped us understand Andalusian food and suggested dishes to sample and restaurants to visit. He took us to the three UNESCO sites in Cordoba- the unique Patio homes, the Jewish synagogue and the piece the resistance- the Mosque/churchWritten September 10, 2024
- Curious232119398920 contributionsTrip to the White villages in Andalusia- Las Arcos de Frontera, Ronda and SentinelOur guide Oscar from ‘Not just a Tourist’ was terrific. Patient, knowledgeable, an epicurean and willing to make the trip as flexible to our needs as possible. We had him for the entire day. He took us to see amazing views of these three very different White villages. He was a great conversationalist very aware of current Spanish and world issues. Discussing those made the long drives more pleasantWritten September 7, 2024
- ielshareef0 contributionsIncredible Day and Very Highly RecommendedWe had an amazing day with our guide, Oscar! The drive to Cordoba from Seville took 90 minutes and when we got there, we spent our time as follows: 1. Visited the Patios: This is a must! A UNESCO Heritage Site of these incredible gardens at private homes that are at their peak in May every year. But still, even in September, the patios were so charming and the owners are so proud and welcoming of tourists. Definitely a highlight. 2. The Synagogue: Not a big site, but worth a visit to learn about the Jewish history in Cordoba. The Jewish quarter here is the biggest in all of Spain! 3. The Mosque & Cathedral: This was a magical experience of a pastiche of many rich worlds colliding into what’s today a sight to behold. I can’t even begin to describe it. You just gotta get there and see it for yourself. 4. Lunch: Oscar, our guide, is a chef and he picked a spot for us that was absolutely amazing! We wouldn’t have found this spot on our own, I can tell you that much. The food we had was divine! You must try the salmorejo while in cordoba. 5. Camrona!: We were lucky to have had the time to make a stop at the town of Carmona on the way back to Seville. Oscar recommended it and it was worth the stop. It was a magical day with an amazing guide. Worth every penny.Written September 3, 2024

- The_Atomic0 contributionsFun transfer from Granada to Seville through Ronda and Zahara of the Sierra.What a great way to get between cities and experience a couple smaller towns! Carlos did a great job as our tour guide and driver and gave a colorful history of olive oil making, bullfighting, and other Spanish pastimes. He was great to talk to the entire way and handled all the questions we threw at him with aplomb. We were able to eat at a phenomenal restaurant in Ronda for lunch. One of the highlights of our entire Spain trip was the visit to the olive oil mill for olive oil tasting in Zahara of the Sierra. Juan the olive oil mill owner was a very classy host and the entire family loved it.Written July 19, 2024

Our teacher, Maria, was brilliant and a wonderful Flamenco performer. I had a wonderful time! She also went above and beyond to support us. The Flamenco show afterwards was a superb way to end the activity.Written July 3, 2024

- Scenic149517327370 contributionsLove for FlamencoMaria was an excellent instructor. She gave us a history of the flamenco music and dance style, along with practical guidance on how to perform the basic steps. We could tell she loves flamenco and her enthusiasm made our lesson so much fun. We then thoroughly enjoyed going to the show afterwards to see how talented flamenco dancers are. We knew what to look for and truly appreciated the show thanks to Maria's lesson.Written June 25, 2024
- 63gracielas0 contributionsCordobaCarlos was amazing! Very knowledgeable and most of all, relatable. He was a step ahead of us and the experience was just short of perfect ( nothing is perfect😉). The drive felt like around the corner because we were always engaged by thoughtful conversation and interesting facts about the region. Highly recommendedWritten June 20, 2024
- Roam405805516670 contributionsAn excellent experienceThis was a great way to start our holiday in Seville, very informative and good for orientation. Oscar was an excellent guide, relaxed and friendly who managed to accommodate our differing levels of Spanish and provide a good opportunity to practice the language.Written June 11, 2024
- Ally Z0 contributionsSo fun! Don’t miss 💛A true joy. Maria my instructor was so nice. I learned so much about the history of flamenco and just dancing and feeling the music was a highlight of the trip. Beginner level so good for all ages and mobilities. Sadly - I wasn’t able to attend the show that because I had an early night but I HIGHLY recommend. Doing a lesson and seeing a show by professionals was such a great way to live the experience. A favorite. This was a private lesson that happens in a studio and the show is in a different location. The show was a lot later than I initially realized so be prepared for that. I thought it was right afterward. Thank you!Written June 8, 2024

The highlight of our three short days in Seville was the rooftop walking tour hosted by Abby. Despite the rain and cloudy weather, Abby's effervescent and amiable personality, love of the history of Seville, and with her intimate knowledge provided a very enjoyable time. I felt like we were walking with along another friend, enjoying the sights and information. I would recommend this tour to anybody.

Carlos or Carlo was a fantastic tour guide. His friends call him Carlo. We experienced a beautiful historic tour and he was full of information about the history. The rooftops were beautiful and at the end we had a nice summer wine. He gave us many ideas to eat and drink and they all were excellent so far. You will enjoy this tour

Guide was excellent but the tour was not worth the price. Went to two roof top bars that were nice but only stayed a few minutes. Pick another tour.

Hi Richard,
I am very glad that you enjoyed the company of your guide. We care about personal "connections" and keep our tours small and personalized. Our rooftop walking tour is actually one of the nicest and most relaxing tours you can do in Seville as it takes place at sunset and shows you the most photogenic parts of Seville from a different perspective. So, I am surprised that you mentioned having visited only 2 rooftops. We always explain the most iconic monuments that are part of the itinerary, pass by the famous neighborhood of Santa Cruz/Jewish quarter, visit 3-4 rooftops and offer a drink on the last rooftop so that you can take in the ambiance. I doublechecked with your guide and he confirmed having visited 3 rooftops and actually a longer tour too.
In any case, I hope you come back and will be able to enjoy Seville in a more satisfactory way with us.
Warm regards!

Would really recommend this tour, which we took on our first day of arriving in Seville. Our guide Jesus, was very informative and personable. We visited a variety of rooftops with great views over Seville, including some very cool roof top bars, within beautiful hotels. His talk was very informative in regard to history and architecture, with information that I will always remember. The tour also gave us invaluable tips to beat the queues and took us to tucked away locations that we revisited when we came back the next day and walked around Seville by ourselves. We would not have found these things by ourselves. Thank you so much !

Whilst our guide, Juanfe, was friendly and knew his stuff, the cost was not worth the 4 crowded rooftops we visited. We only stayed briefly at each rooftop after the first stop due to this and the one drink we had was not on one of these due to the crowds.
The info provided by Jaunfe was first rate and some of the places we visited in Santa Cruz were very interesting. The views from the rooftops were quite nice as well.
Overall (as a tour) it is good but probably needs to be less expensive than the €115 we paid for two people.

Hola Robert. We are glad you enjoyed your time with Juanfe and his local knowledge and insight into the city. It’s a shame that the roofs were crowded and this affected your experience. October is a very busy month with many visitors in the city. We keep our tours small/private, to give you the best attention possible, despite the crowded city! This is what our price reflects. Thank you for joining us and I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Seville.

I had been to Seville before and was looking for a different experience this time. And I got one! With Jesus as our guide, we visited three different rooftops. No worries, you do not need to walk a lot of stairs, there are elevators at all three spots! Jesus is a great tour guide, who has an excellent knowledge about Seville!

Theodore, thank you! Thank you!
All communications were very speedy, smooth and clear before our arrival.
Talking to Mahsa 1 time and she definitely has Seville's spirit! Very enjoyable and laid back and accommodating!
The tickets for Alcazar + visit to the King Quarter and the Cathedral are very helpful. No waiting in line at all (definitely a MUST on high season specially for 1st timers like us).
The Rooftop tour with Caroline was great and helpful (Merci Caroline, we went to Lobo Lopez, awesome food and such a hip place).
Totally recommended to everyone, very reliable company!
Will talk to you, Theo, again next year when I'll be back with our whole family.

We did the rooftop tour with Frederico today and it was great! We saw beautiful views over the city and learned some lovely facts and history about Seville that you wouldn’t otherwise know. Fred was really friendly and insightful - the perfect tour guide! We’d recommend this for an alternative view of Seville!

My wife and I aren't typically ones to go on tours but decided to on the Seville Rooftop tour to see the city from a different angle. We're very happy we did and our guides Filippo and Alva were fantastic. They are extremely knowledgeable and great ambassadors to the city. We would highly recommend this tour if you are in Seville.
