A company offering personalised tours around Seville is ensuring that each visitor to the Andalucian capital enjoys a unique experience.

Writing in the Independent on Sunday, Adrian Mourby describes his encounter with Really Discover, a new walking tour service set up by Seville native Luis Salas and his British business partner David Cox.

Charging €25 (£18) for two and a half hours, Really Discover is different from other tour guides in that customers can make precise requests on what they would like to see, while Mr Salas runs his tour each day no matter how many people are present.

Of course, Seville has plenty of interesting sights, with the 18th century Fabrica de Tabacos - Spain’s second largest building - the Plaza de Toros de la Maestranza and various sites made famous in Bizet’s opera Carmen all mentioned by Mr Mourby.

The bullring is one the oldest in the country and is described as “dazzling” by the journalist, with statues of famous matadors lined up outside to remind visitors of Spain’s proud tradition.

Next month will see the launch of new high-speed AVE rail service between Malaga and Seville, enabling people to travel from the Costa del Sol to the heart of Andalucia in just one hour and 55 minutes.
