Tour description

Holy Week is the most important celebration of each year in Seville. The city prepares throughout the year for these religious processions, which last a week.

¡Nos encantó el tour! A pesar de ser de Sevilla, hay muchos datos de la Semana Santa que aún desconocía. Álvaro es ameno, muy culto y adaptó el tour a nuestras dudas y necesidades. Lo recomiendo muchísimo.

La experiencia fue magnífica de principio a fin. Álvaro es una enciclopedia andante de Sevilla y sus costumbres, y las escalas del tour fueron en todo momento reforzadas por sus explicaciones y anécdotas históricas. Sin duda, una experiencia recomendable para todos a los que les gustaría conocer la Semana Santa de Sevilla. Ojalá introduzcas nuevas rutas por la ciudad para cuando volvamos a visitar Sevilla, Álvaro!!
