Led by a passionate local historian, this walking tour takes you on an unforgettable journey through one of the most iconic and storied corners of the city. It’s more than just a history tour — it’s a deep dive into the soul of Andalusia through the tales that shaped it.

Hear the haunting story of Susona, the young Jewish woman who betrayed her people, and whose memory still lingers on a quiet street that bears her name. Learn about Miguel Mañara, the real-life inspiration for Don Juan, and uncover chilling tales like Barabbás’ ghost, as well as lighter, humorous legends of Seville’s colorful past.

We’ll explore some of the neighborhood’s most emblematic spots, such as:

  • Doña Elvira Square, wrapped in romance and nostalgia
  • The Water Alley, where poets whispered secrets through the stone walls
  • Alliance Square, once the scene of noble intrigues
  • And the legendary Susona Street, where history and myth collide

Your expert guide will bring these places to life with vivid storytelling, humor, and a deep understanding of Seville’s Jewish heritage, Christian legacy, and Moorish influences. You'll walk the same paths once traveled by poets, rebels, lovers, and ghosts.

Whether it’s your first time in Seville or you’re returning for more, this tour offers a new, intimate perspective of the city — perfect for history lovers, culture seekers, and curious travelers alike.
