Guided tour to Italica, the first Roman city founded in the Iberian peninsula and the birthplace of the Emperors Trajan and Hadrian. The main building on this archaeological site is the amphitheatre, the third largest in the world with a capacity for 25,000 spectators. Italica is also well known by its mosaics and 'domus'. Then, visit 'San Isidoro del Campo' - a restored Medieval fortress monastery, all by minivan.

Episodes from the Game of Thrones television series were filmed in and around the Roman ruins of Itálica. Most of it, the Roman amphitheater was the setting of the Dragonpit, where several key characters held a summit in season seven.

    Take this tour to go beyond Seville’s most popular attractions. Highlight for the work of the guide Julian, who presented the history of the place with very good mood in a well-suited pace. The Roman theatre seen in person is amazing!

    Fascinating place with so much preserved. Very good, interesting and knowledgeable guide. Then went to the monastery which also had a lot of history. However we were not told to bring ID, but thankfully had passports on screenshots on phone. So please make that clear in instructions

  • The trip was well...

    The trip was well organized. The bus was comfy. The guide was knowledgeable and personable and made the trip interesting. The site is really amazing and worth the visit. There was a ‘bonus’ side trip of a visit to San Isidoro del Campo, a former fortress monastery. My complaint is that they advertised in their literature and it said on the ticket that food and drinks were provided. But that was not the case. It was a hot day and it took a toll on me and left me dehydrated. I felt light headed at one point. I heard a couple of other travelers.mention it too.

  • An unforgettable guided tour and highly recommended.

    It was a wonderful experience thanks to the efficiency and professionalism of the organization, the enormous historical interest of the visit itself, and above all to the great knowledge, kindness and closeness of Nieves, our guide. A highly recommended and unforgettable tour.

    I loved Italica. In addition, Ana, the guide, shared a lot of knowledge and was very attentive to everyone. She is an excellent guide!

    Excellent guided tour of Italica and the local monastery. The coach was very comfortable and the guide, Miguel, spoke superb English and was very knowledgeable and entertaining about the ancient city of Italic and its history. It is not as well persevered as Roman ruins in some other places because it has only been valued for its historical importance in relatively recent times, but there are some beautiful mosaic floors (reconstructed) and the amphitheatre is spectacular. The monastery was also worth seeing and was beautiful inside despite looking almost derelict from the outside.

  • Highly recommend

    How important is a guide to ruining an excursion? A lot. Before you start writing this review, I suggest that the Naturandia Enterprise and Civitatis go undercover when this guide is working, to judge for themselves. Excursion to Italica with two guides, one for the English group (Carlos León) and one for the Spanish group (also called Carlos). I have no complaint from the Carlos guide who was taking the "English speaking" group, because after visiting Italica and two couples left the excursion, we decided to request to join his group for the visit the Monastery of San Isidoro del Campo even if the visit was in English. Everything went very well and we appreciate you knowing what you were talking about and not interpreting the story your way. Our guide: You can't go saying that vomiting was where you "vomited," since vomiting refers to the aisles or entrances where people walked in a show, and the meaning expanded to include places of entry and exit of people. - You can not go saying in front of the replica of the bronze Lex Gladiatoria plate that the original is in the "antiquarian" of Seville, when the original is in the National Archaeological Museum. When asked if Italica predated or post-Mérida, he told us that it was about "two years" apart, when Italica was founded about two centuries earlier. He can't go saying that Trajan killed Adriano, because he didn't. And if you both had "penchant" for young men there are ways and means of saying it. This is just a small sample of this gentleman's comments. Apart from the fact that as I have already mentioned, the group lost interest in explanations and two couples left the excursion in Italica without finishing it. Anyway, a ruined excursion. I have done many excursions when I travel, and the theme is not that the guide likes you more or less, that he knows more or less, the problem is that he invents and does not even manage to maintain the attention of the group.
