What to expect
You'll arrive at the Royal Alcazar and settle into the gardens with typical Sevillian breakfast or afternoon pastries—coffee, tea, cured ham on toast with local olive oil, and regional sweets. Take your time here; the soundscape matters as much as the food. Afterwards, your guide walks you through the palace interiors: intricate plasterwork, azulejo tiles, and rooms that shift between Moorish and Renaissance aesthetics. Then duck into San Cruz's narrow lanes, tight plazas, and whitewashed buildings that feel unchanged for centuries. The pace is unhurried.
