La actividad con Carlos fue sumamente interesante, tiene un dominio de la historia y arte digno de admirar. Pero he de reconocer que las 3 horas y media seguidas se me hicieron demasiado intensas. Se agradecería un breve break en el medio para recuperar fuerzas y retomar por la tarde la segunda actividad. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity with Carlos was extremely interesting; his command of history and art is truly admirable. However, I must admit that the three and a half hours straight felt too intense. A short break in the middle would be appreciated, allowing me to recharge and resume the second activity in the afternoon. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy entretenida. Estuvimos 3:30 hs de paseo. Comenzamos con La Giralda, luego la Catedral y por último el Real Alcazar. Nuestra guía fue María Ángeles que fue lo más. Explicó todo súper bien y fue realmente simpática con el grupo. Éramos aprox 30 personas. Translate this opinion into English.

Very entertaining. We spent 3.5 hours on the tour. We started with the Giralda, then the Cathedral, and finally the Royal Alcazar. Our guide, María Ángeles, was fantastic. She explained everything perfectly and was really friendly with the group. There were about 30 of us. Opinion translated. Show original.

A pesar de hacer mucho calor la guía se esforzó porque tuviéramos una buena perspectiva de la Catedral y del Alcázar. Quizá ofrecer excursiones a las 15:30 de la tarde en estas fechas no sea lo más ideal en Sevilla, nosotros la verdad que la cogimos a última hora y porque ya no quedaba más opción. Pero quisimos adelantar el horario ese mismo día por el tour de las 13:30 h y fue imposible. Translate this opinion into English.

Despite it being very hot, the guide made an effort for us to have a good view of the Cathedral and the Alcázar. Perhaps offering tours at 3:30 PM during these dates is not the most ideal in Seville; we actually booked it at the last minute because there were no other options left. But we wanted to move the time up that same day for the 1:30 PM tour and it was impossible. Opinion translated. Show original.

Carlos, nuestro guía, ha demostrado tener grandes conocimientos de la historia de la ciudad. Sus explicaciones han sido realmente interesantes y amenas. Merece la pena para poder conocer ampliamente el origen de la catedral y de Los Alcázares reales Translate this opinion into English.

La presentación del guía no era adecuada, traía una playera que parecía sucia. Y en una de las salas nos explico una pintura. Y había mas pinturas y le pregunte quien era el autor, y dijo no sé. Solo conozco la que ya explique. Considero que debe tener más conocimiento, de la capilla donde nos lleva. Ademas cuando bajamos de la Giralda yo y 2 personas mas, pasados 5 min. No lo encontrabamos, nos dejo. Y nunca nos busco. La verdad 25 min en la Giralda es muy poco tiempo para subir bajar y fotos.

The guide's presentation was inadequate; he was wearing a shirt that looked dirty. In one of the rooms, he explained a painting to us. There were other paintings, and when I asked him who the artist was, he said, "I don't know. I only know the one I already explained." I think he should have more knowledge about the chapel he was taking us to. Furthermore, when I and two other people came down from the Giralda, after about five minutes, we couldn't find him; he had left us and never looked for us. Honestly, 25 minutes at the Giralda is very little time to go up, down, and take photos.

Nos quedamos sin entradas para la catedral y Giralda cuando hacia mas de 1 mes que habiamos reservado y pagado, no consigo a entender como nos dijeron durante la visita al Alcazar que no les habian vendido para el mismo dia, pero si hacia mas de 1 mes que habiamos reservado. Eso sí, el guia Carlos una eminencia, menos mal de el, sino hubiera sido un total desastre.

We missed out on tickets for the cathedral and Giralda even though we had booked and paid for them over a month ago. I can't understand how they told us during our visit to the Alcázar that they hadn't been able to sell any tickets for that day, when we had booked more than a month in advance. However, our guide Carlos was fantastic; thank goodness for him, otherwise it would have been a complete disaster.

La Guía muy buena y explicaba muy bien. Pero la verdad que un poco triste que los aparatos si no estas a su lado se oye con ruido o no se oye. Estos aparatos es para no tener que estar todos pegados a la guía y que funcione tan mal hace perder el valor al Tour si que Carmen cuando se lo hemos dicho esperaba a explicar las cosas a que estuviéramos juntos.

The guide was very good and explained things very well. But it's a bit disappointing that the devices are noisy or inaudible if you're not right next to her. These devices are meant to prevent everyone from having to be glued to the guide, and the fact that they work so poorly detracts from the tour. When we mentioned this to Carmen, she waited until we were all together to explain things.

La guia Virginia buena y simpatica El problema fue la compañia, muy mal organizada, el recorrido empezo tarde y con mucha desorganizacion, pues tuvimos que pasar por otras personas a otra oficina y resulta que ellas haian contratado en frances, nadie resolvía y el recorrido enpezo mas tarde Buena guia Virginia Mala organizacion.

Virginia was a good and friendly guide. The problem was the company; it was very poorly organized. The tour started late and with a lot of disorganization, as we had to go to another office to meet other people, and it turned out they had booked in French. Nobody resolved the issue, and the tour started even later. Virginia was a good guide, but the organization was bad.

Carmen muy buena guía. Lo único negativo de la visita es que tuvieron que retrasar el horario por que cerraron la Catedral para una misa que no estaba prevista, pero ellos no tienen culpa de estos cambios y había mucha gente dentro al hacer el recorrido y en los alrededores por los retrasos que ocasionan cambios de este tipo en fin de semana con puente y no pudimos disfrutar la visita como hubiéramos querido. Translate this opinion into English.

Carmen is a very good guide. The only negative aspect of the visit is that they had to delay the schedule because the Cathedral was closed for an unplanned mass, but they are not to blame for these changes. There were a lot of people inside during the tour and in the surroundings due to the delays caused by such changes on a weekend with a holiday, and we couldn't enjoy the visit as we would have liked.

Es sin duda, una visita que no se puede dejar de hacer. Me ha encantado que nuestro guía haya sido Julián. He disfrutado escuchando cómo cuenta la historia. Sus ejemplos y su forma de ralatarlos me han envuelto de tal manera que no creo que olvide muchas cosas de las que contó. Julián ama la historia, muchos profesores deberían enseñarla como él lo hace. Gracias Translate this opinion into English.

It's definitely a visit you shouldn't miss. I loved having Julián as our guide. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him tell the story. His examples and the way he narrated them captivated me so much that I don't think I'll forget many of the things he said. Julián loves history; many teachers should teach it the way he does.

Hicimos la visita con Carlos y si bien se ve que es un hombre muy culto y que tiene muchos conocimientos hubo varias cosas que no nos gustaron. Se dirigió en varias ocasiones a otros grupos con unas formas que nos incomodaron, además de soltar algun que otro "taco" en la catedral. El alcázar nos ha dado pena porque tienes apenas una hora y no ves ni los jardines, la arquitectura es impresionante pero nos quedamos como ganas de ver más. Translate this opinion into English.

We did the tour with Carlos and while it is clear that he is a very cultured man with a lot of knowledge, there were several things we didn't like. He addressed other groups on several occasions in a way that made us uncomfortable, in addition to dropping a few "swear words" in the cathedral. The alcázar made us sad because you only have about an hour and you don't even see the gardens; the architecture is impressive, but we were left wanting to see more. Opinion translated.

Rafael (Rafa), the guide, is an expert, very engaging and friendly, with extensive knowledge and a great ability to convey history. Congratulations! However, the tour operator left much to be desired. The organization was terrible, and it's clear they're overwhelmed by the volume of information sent by Civitatis.

Carmen nos guió en una visita muy interesante por la catedral y el Alcázar. Como sugerencia, seríamos que la radio fuese con otro tipo de auriculares, que no sea necesario colgarlos de la oreja porque resulta incómodo para las personas que usan gafas, y/o audífonos. Translate this opinion into English.

Carmen guided us on a very interesting tour of the cathedral and the Alcázar. As a suggestion, we would prefer the radio to have a different type of headphones, so that it is not necessary to hang them from the ear because it is uncomfortable for people who wear glasses and/or hearing aids.

Julián fue un excelente guía, tanto en su aportación de conocimientos como en las formas de hacerlo, con gracia y elegancia y, en algún momento, con templanza. Lástima que nos tuvimos que ir cuando salimos de la Catedral, ya que mi hermano no podía seguir por estar agotado, debido a la terapia médica que estaba llevando a cabo. Nos quedamos sin entrar al Alcázar......... En resumen, sois geniales en estas labores turísticas. Gracias Translate this opinion into English.

Julián was an excellent guide, both in his knowledge and in his manner of sharing it—graceful, elegant, and, at times, with composure. It was a shame we had to leave as soon as we exited the Cathedral, as my brother was too exhausted to continue due to the medical therapy he was undergoing. We didn't even get to visit the Alcázar... In short, you are fantastic at this kind of tourist work. Thank you. Opinion translated. Show original.

Un tour interesante pero excesivamente largo. Si tuviera que volver lo haría por separado: un día la Catedral y la Giralda y otro los Reales Alcázares. La visita a la Iglesia de El Salvador que también va incluida en el tour aunque sin guía (la hicimos otro día) nos pareció muy interesante.

An interesting but excessively long tour. If I were to return, I would split it up: one day for the Cathedral and the Giralda, and another for the Royal Alcázar. The visit to the Church of El Salvador, which is also included in the tour but without a guide (we visited it on a different day), was very interesting.
