Ferran was an excellent tour guide! He picked me up in an easy to get to spot and was very welcoming and friendly. I was on a solo journey and I didn't feel alone at all in the group. Fernan gave everyone in the van wonderful history of the areas we passed through as we were on our way to the caves which I truly appreciated. Once we got to the caves we had a little free time to grab a snack and use the restroom. The cave experience was wonderful and awe inspiring. I really loved that Ferran came on the boat with us because the boat operator didn't speak English and he translated everything so we didn't miss out on learning about the caves. You must do this excursion, it is an awesome experience!

A great tour, easy pick up instructions, nice clean van and good driver. Our guide Alex did a great job of filling us in on some of the sights around Seville and offering tips and recommendations, very helpful and friendly. Visiting the caves was a unique experience and we were lucky enough to have a boat man who was able to speak pretty good English. An easy way to get to the caves and through them early before the crowds.

Our guide Ferran was amazing, gave us bits and bobs of information about the city in the way to the caves. Ferran also went on the boat with us inside the caves and translated the information which was very helpful. The caves itself was stunning, would definitely return!
