About us
We live in Seville, and we pick every activity ourselves
sevillaqr is a small company based in Seville. We know the people who run these activities, one by one, and the site only carries the ones we would recommend to a friend. You pay the same as booking direct, with no booking fee. The guide to the city is ours, and it comes free with your booking. And when you ask us something, the answer comes from someone who lives here.

What makes us different
We know who runs them
We are not reselling a catalogue we have never seen. The activities here are run by companies we know in Seville and around Andalusia, we deal with them by name, and when a booking needs changing we are talking to someone who answers. It is also why we can tell you what a day out is actually like, and not just what its description says.
Only what we would recommend
Every activity on this site has been gone through one by one: what it includes, where it starts, how long it really takes, what it costs and what happens if you cancel. The ones that did not hold up are not here. The list is short on purpose, because it is the list we would give a friend who asked.
Same price, and real answers
You pay what you would pay booking direct: no service charge, no booking fee, no cheaper price hiding somewhere else. What you get on top is someone in Seville to ask. Which trip fits the three days you have, how much walking a place involves, what to do if your flight lands late: write, and a person here answers it.
Written here, given away
The guide
More than 90 pages on Seville, written by Eduardo: what to see, the museums and palaces, where to eat, the trips worth taking out of the city and the maps. It is ours, it is free with any booking, and it is the thing readers write to us about most.
Eduardo Ballesteros
Eduardo was born in Seville and runs sevillaqr from here. He has travelled enough to know what a good guide is worth when you land somewhere for the first time, so he wrote one for his own city: over 90 pages, because the advice travellers kept asking him for did not fit in an email. If you write to us, he is usually the one who answers.
We are not trying to be the biggest. We are trying to be the one you would recommend.

Questions about sevillaqr
Who is behind sevillaqr?
Eduardo Ballesteros, who was born in Seville and still lives here. He chose the activities one by one, wrote what you read on each page, and wrote the city guide. He is usually the one who answers when you write to us.
Do you run the activities yourselves?
No. They are run by the companies on the ground, as they are everywhere. What we do is know those companies, choose which ones we are willing to put our name to, explain the activity properly, and deal with anything that comes up on your booking.
Is it cheaper to book somewhere else?
No. We sell at the same price as booking direct and we add no booking fee. The amount the calendar shows you before you pay is the amount you pay.
How do I book, and how do I know it went through?
You book on the activity page itself, choosing your date in the calendar. The confirmation reaches your email with everything you need for the day.
What if I have to cancel?
Almost everything on this site can be cancelled free of charge up to 24 hours before, and the exact conditions are written on every activity page. You request the cancellation from the company that operates the activity, using the contact details on your confirmation. If they do not reply or something is not right, write to us and we will take it up with them.
What is the free guide?
A guide to Seville of more than ninety pages, written by Eduardo: what to see, where to eat, the museums and palaces, the trips out of the city and the maps. It is free with any booking you make with us. See what is inside.
Can I ask you something before I book?
Yes, and we would rather you did. Write to us and a person in Seville answers: which activity fits the days you have, how much walking there is, whether somewhere works with a pushchair.
Have a look at what we run
From an hour of flamenco to four days in Morocco, all on one page.
