Alba's overview during our walk through the old part of Seville was focused on the history and mythology of the city. She also gave us some idea about the people, customs and lifestyle in current day Seville. She tried to engage our daughter with a multiple choice "quiz" book that appealed to my daughter's competitive spirit as it ended with a visit to a local bakery. Alba pointed out places and things we would have walked by otherwise, such as ancient Roman columns, and put everything in a good context for us. After the tour, when we were on our own in the Alcazar gardens, we came upon a monument behind which Alba had told us the history during our tour...We were happily surprised that in all the large garden area, we had been able to see it and know its significance. Following the tour, Alba kindly emailed a list of suggested things for us to do that we had asked her about, including a great recommendation for an authentic flamenco show. We were grateful to have her "insider" suggestions following our tour.
** Note: We toured with Alba in December 2019; This review was posted at that time on the Withlocals site and now copied here.
