Seville April Fair Private Tour

My time on this tour left me with memories for a lifetime... To start off, my guide Alexis was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. He answered every question I had with enthusiasm -- I could tell that he really enjoyed his job and loved sharing his city with me. Riding through the city on a carriage was a beautiful way to see the city center. Going to the Feria was such a privilege, and left me with the best memories! I was lucky enough to join Alexis and a bigger group of friends to have an authentic experience. The ambiance is unbeatable and nothing like I've ever experienced, watching people in their traditional clothing, dancing to the sevillanas, and drinking rebujito and beer. If I have another opportunity to repeat this experience in the future, I would do it in a heartbeat. I can't recommend this tour enough -- just book it!

Sevilla Feria is (mostly) a very big, private party event - which, if you are reading this review you probably already know. Unless you have an invite to one of the wonderful party Cassetas you could just wander around looking at a lot of Spanish people having a party to which you are not invited !! This tour may seem expensive but to join in the true Feria experience of parading in a horse carriage and then - most importantly - getting access to a real Casseta experience is worthwhile. But the most important part will be the quality of your guide and your own willingness to party, Spanish style. We had a great “guide” in Driss, who became a friend in the 8 hours we spent with him - and then with his friends and relations ………….. Sevilla Feria is foremost a participative experience….,..,,, do NOT come just to watch !

My fiance and I booked the private Sevilla tour for the first day of the April Fair. The fair itself can be elusive for nonlocals because of the private party aspect of the casettas and we were worried that we'd leave Sevilla not understanding the culture and significance of the fair. We didn't realize when we were booking the tour that it involved a horse and buggy ride and were nervous that we would be overdoing it. Not at all. We dressed up in a dress and suit as the locals do and met with David, our guide, who was an incredible amount of fun and made us feel at home in Sevilla. He shared with us an intimate level of history and local culture that we could never find on our own. On our way back he remembered some additional things he wanted to share near our hotel and we continued the tour for a little longer! David went above and beyond what you'd ask for from a private tour guide. We were so happy with the experience and encourage everyone to go with this tour if you're looking to really enjoy and develop an understanding of the Sevilla Fair. The next time we visit Spain, we hope to book another tour with David, he really made our Sevilla trip incredible
