We had a private transfer from Faro to Seville incorporating a stop at Italica along the way. Our driver Daniel was very friendly and knowledgeable, offering good suggestions for how to spend our time in Seville and tips on language, food etc. He was a great driver and lovely person. Thanks also to Mahsa for helping me to book the trip and suggestions for tours along the way (which was great value compared to subsequent day trips).

Carlos was our guide for our day trip to the Alhambra | Granada. His knowledge and experience shone brightly. We very much enjoyed Carlos' kindness snd company during the long drive from Sevilla. Laura guided us through the Alhambra and her extensive historical knowledge painted great stories and lifted our imagination. Highly recommend!! ❤️

Took a day trip from Seville to Granada to see the Alhambra and the Alcazyn. Carlos was a fantastic host. He walked us around the city showing us places we would never seen ourselves. Additionally, he gave us some hints of things to see in our next city, as well as tried to help us make restaurant reservations, which we were ultimately able to get in thanks to him.

Driver was very pleasant and nice. He made sure we were comfortable. Tour guide in Cordova was very good. Friendly gentleman. Very knowledgeable and pleasant. English was easy to understand.

Great experience on a full-day tour of the Caves of Nerja, white village of Fragiliana, and Balcony of Europe on the Costa del Sol. Our tour guide (and driver), Predrag, was fabulous, and it was a pleasure to spend the day guided by him. First stop was the pre-historic Caves at Nerja with giant stalactites and stalagmites and other amazing sights. Next was Frigiliana, probably the most beautiful white village in Spain. Predrag knew the best walking route through the town, adapting the pace to our needs, and he showed us sights we would not have found on our own. Finally we visited the Mediterranean shore at Nerja and the Balcony of Europe for beautiful views looking out to the sea and shoreline. Predrag is extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area, and he made the day so interesting and enjoyable. This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Spain.

We loved our flamenco show and tapas tour. Our guide, Costanza, was fantastic.She shared lots of knowledge about flamenco and was a great host for the evening.

Guille was an exceptional host who comes from a family that has lived in Triana. He has great knowledge of the food and takes you to places that have been part of neighborhood for a generation. He answers all of your questions about the food relative to Seville and Triana and was able to provide a nice history of some of the restaurants over time.

Carlos was the best tour host we’ve ever had. He was well versed on the history and culture of these towns. More importantly, he catered it to how much we were interested in, which in our case was a lot! In my experience, what makes a tour or rural, small town Europe come alive is its history and why these areas became to be the way they are in this modern time. Carlos talked about how these villages came to be with each takeover of Iberia and how these villages current people have maintained its history as younger generations move out to the cities and then back. Carlos also had tons of knowledge of the ecology of the area, which is important to locals and park system around these towns that protect it. The best compliment of a tour host I can give is that by the end of the tour, he felt like a friend you want to keep in touch with. Carlos absolutely left us with this. Finally, he is a big NBA basketball fan, so if you are, he will gladly talk about it as much as you’d like! 😉

At the end of November 2024 my family and I were in Granada and we took a day trip to Ronda with Not Just a Tourist. Our guide Ramon picked us up from our hotel in Granada on-time and drove us to and from Ronda in pristine private van. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him and he personally guided us around the whole city showing and explaining many different historical locations. He also drove us below the Puente Nuevo (New Bridge) for an additional photo stop as we were leaving the town. We had a great experience with Ramon and Not Just a Tourist! This was a day-trip we will never forget!

The tour covers some of the best sights of the white villages and Ronda. Our guide Juanra was very knowledgeable. He shared the historical and geological importance of the castles and white villages along the way, and showed us several hidden gems in Ronda. Very friendly. Highly recommend!

Oscar is a courteous, knowledgeable host making this excursion an enjoyable and memorable one. He cared about our needs and adapted the tour to accommodate them. Many thanks for the experiences and insights we shared on the tour.

This was a fantastic tour. I felt like I was getting an experience of what flamenco was really about. I felt the passion and sense of history through talented and passionate performers in an intimate little venue in Triana. Costanza, as host could not have been more friendly and helpful. As a flamenco dancer and teacher herself, her enthusiasm and understanding of the history and local flamenco scene was a huge bonus. We also visited several other authentic and traditional tapas bars, enjoying lovely local food and wine. All in all this was a perfect way to spend an evening, just across the bridge from Seville.

We booked this tour from Granada back to Seville. Our driver, Carlos, picked us up at our hotel in Granada-he reached out the day before as well as that morning to update us on his arrival time. We stopped in Ronda where Carlos led us a quick, but informative, walking tour and then gave us time to explore and have lunch on our own. On the way to Seville, we also made a brief stop at one of the beautiful white villages. Arrived in Seville around 6pm. Definitely worth the cost for the private transfer between cities and the stop in Ronda was one of the highlights of our week in Spain! A great day with Carlos!

Oscar is a knowledgeable and wonderful guide who happily shared about Spain and its culture. The ham tasting tour was nothing short of what we expected, especially the blind tasting portion that came with wine. We had ample time for lunch at a bar in Aracena before touring the cave, which is a true hidden gem. Oscar also gave us a few bar recommendations and dropped us off at a convenient location for us to shop for olive oil in Seville. Overall, highly recommend! Thanks Oscar for your generosity!

BEWARE! Worst experience EVER with Viator and the local tour operator. Showed up promptly at 8 am for pick up as instructed. Guide never showed up. We called 10 times the local phone number provided to find out status and, after the 10th try, somebody answered. We were then told that while we are confirmed on the system, there is a technical glitch and mix-up that showed our confirmed date was one year from today from the local operator’s side! Wow! Worst excuse ever! Way more creative that “The dog ate my homework.” I explained that we got emails EVERYDAY for the last week, before the trip, confirming the day trip we booked. Even printed the tickets on the Viator App confirming the date and time. But alas, to no avail. So, my advise to all —> THERE ARE BETTER OPTIONS OUT THERE TO ENJOY YOUR HARD EARNED VACATION!
