What to expect
You'll start inside the cathedral's vast nave, where your guide points out intricate stonework, side chapels housing royal tombs, and paintings by Spanish masters. The cathedral sprawls across what was once a mosque—you'll spot architectural echoes of that past. Next, drift into the Patio de los Naranjos, a peaceful retreat with orange blossoms scenting the air (seasonal). Then comes the Giralda: a gently sloped interior ramp (not steep stairs) winds upward. At the top, the city unfolds beneath you—river, rooftops, distant hills. The whole experience moves at a leisurely pace; your guide shapes the rhythm.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes; expect smooth stone underfoot. The cathedral can be cool even in summer. Bring water. Wireless headsets are provided. Photography is permitted in most areas but check with your guide on restrictions. Nearest metro stations are just a short walk away.
