Animal cruelty
Excellent tour but spoiled by the pidgeon trap where the birds are trapped and left to die, there must be a more humane way of dealing with them.

Seville history walking tour
Joan was amazing. Very personable. Fun and extremely knowledgeable. Sharing the history of a Sevilla with us left us with a much deeper understanding of this city and country and region. He touched on all aspects of Seville and made it fun. It was great because Joan is very engaging. We highly recommend this tour!

Brilliant Guide, Shockingly Overpriced Tour
Brilliant Guide, Shockingly Overpriced Tour This review is split into 2 parts. * Our tour guide was Guille and he was brilliant. He taught us loads on the history of Seville and his passion was clear and obvious. He was a great guy and we wish him all the best in his pursuit for a career in art and film making. Guille's guidance and knowledge were definitely the highlight. * And this is the main review. This tour is WAY overpriced. We paid nearly €90 per person (€178 total) and for that, we got to visit 3 rooftop bars and 1 hotel lobby. At the last bar, we were told we could have 1 cheap drink as part of the tour. Honestly, this tour should be priced no more than €30 per person, and even at that, I would seriously consider thinking about a different tour. To put it into perspective, we did a walking Tapas tour with a different company, and for €71 per person, we went to 5 family-run local bars with food and drinks supplied at each location. This "Sunset Roof Top Walking Tour" felt like a complete rip-off in comparison. Hate writing bad reviews, but this felt like such an overpriced waste of time and money. The cost is absolutely not justified by what is offered.
Response from the operator: Hi Tony, Thanks for your feedback, and I’m glad you appreciated our guide Guille. That said, I am very surprised to see a 1-star rating, especially given that you had a semi-private experience with only four people and a dedicated guide for over 3 hours. We also contacted you in advance to tailor the experience around the sunset timing, and helped you plan your visit to the Metropol Parasol — things we do because we care about the quality of the experience, not because they’re part of a standard tour. Of course, value is subjective, but comparing a rooftop walking tour focused on views and storytelling to a food tour with multiple stops and included meals isn’t exactly a like-for-like comparison. You also chose to stop for cocktails outside the planned route and despite it was not a private tour— we stayed flexible for the sake of the group, and everyone adjusted to you so you could enjoy your drinks. Interestingly, the other guest on your same tour left a glowing 5-star review. So, while we absolutely welcome all opinions, it's a disheartening to receive the lowest possible rating given the personalized attention, flexibility, and small group setup you experienced — especially when you clearly enjoyed the guide himself. Wishing you all the best in your future travels — and a little more gratitude along the way.

A fun way to explore Seville
We had the most interesting small group tour with Guille, a young local, as our guide. Fascinating places, great views and historic insights. We are English speaking and his language skills are excellent. As a group we also had time for a drink together 👍

Rooftop tour- a great evening
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. When we arrived we discovered that we were the only 2 on it, which was a great surprise. Óscar was friendly, personable and knowledgeable; we learned lots about the history, legends and secrets of Seville. Thank you for showing us sights and locations that we would otherwise have missed; we went back and visited some the next day. Óscar was good company.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Seville Rooftop Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Seville.
How much does Seville Rooftop Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $102 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Seville usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Seville Rooftop Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Seville is not rushed.
Is Seville Rooftop Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 49 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Seville, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Seville Rooftop Walking Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Seville Rooftop Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Seville Rooftop Walking Tour?
+
Around 17 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Seville can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Seville and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Seville Rooftop Walking Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Seville within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Seville?
+
On Outty we rank every Seville experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Seville Tapas Crawl Tour by Food Lover Tour, Best of Seville Bike Tour: Top Sights & Hidden Gems, Sevilla Food Tour: Tapas, Wine, History & Traditions. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Seville?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Seville?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Seville Rooftop Walking Tour?
+
Included: A free drink at the end of the tour (water, beer, cafe, tea); and Local guide. Not included: Gratuities; Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Entrance to the Giralda, Cathedral, Alcazar and Metrosolparaol. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Seville Rooftop Walking Tour?
+
Meeting at the entrance of the the City Hall at Plaza Nueva Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Seville Rooftop Walking Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Seville Rooftop Walking Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Seville Rooftop Walking Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Seville Rooftop Walking Tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
