Watch Cádiz turn golden from the Bay of Cádiz on a modern Pura Vida catamaran, with an included cava drink and optional live music.
“The hardest part was finding it. The directions to the place, given at the office, didn't say that you needed to show the guard the ticket to enter the port. Once inside, it wasn't difficult, because of the orange path, but instructions to find it can be better, in multiple languages. The boat journey was fine. Seeing the sunset is always awesome!”
A 3-hour sunset bike tour through Seville’s Cathedral area, Santa Cruz, Triana, and Plaza de España, with helmets, stories, and local tips.

Sunset paddleboarding on Seville’s Guadalquivir. Glide past lit bridges and monuments in 1.5 hours with easy guidance and photos included.
“Excellent value for money and beautiful scenery under the sunset. The tour guide was really friendly, pointed out lots of interesting things along the river and took lots of nice pictures. He took pictures when we asked too if there was a particularly nice photo we wanted taken. Would highly recommend this experience.”
Cycle Seville at sunset with a live English guide. Ride easy routes, hit top monuments, and watch golden hour by the Guadalquivir.
“My wife and I were looking for a way to get an overall feel of the city and we got that and much more. We got to know the major attractions, spending some time to enjoy each and got to know a lot about the history of Seville. Worth every penny. Our guide, Daniel, was very helpful, good humored and made the experience a delight. Great way to get to know a city like Seville.”
Sunset catamaran from Sancti Petri. 75 minutes on Cádiz Bay Natural Park with cava, history commentary, and great views.
Córdoba wine tasting in a small shop. Sip 4 Montilla-Moriles wines with tapas and learn Fino, Oloroso, and Pedro Ximénez.
“Hank was our wine tasting expert of the evening. It was a small group of the 4 of us and he was so knowledgeable and friendly. I tried wines I would have never tried on my own and learned more about how they were made and their pairings. I would definitely recommend as an evening activity.”
Guided night tour of Medina Azahara near Córdoba, walking the ruins of al-Andalus’s 10th-century capital with a Spanish guide for about 2 hours.
“THIS TOUR IS IN SPANISH. Make sure you don’t make the same stupid wrror as I I did ! The Mado at is beautiful and walking through at night is a wonderful experience. Transport at night is difficult so make sure you plan appropriately. The guide was very nice and sympathetic about the wrong langauge . It would be great if they could offer a tour in English as well! All round despite the error an enjoyable experience!”
See Seville’s Cathedral, La Giralda, Alcazar walls, and Santa Cruz from rooftop terraces on a timed sunset walk with a small-group guide.

Sunset paddle surf on Seville’s river route past Torre del Oro, Giralda, the cathedral, and bridges, with SUP gear and photos.
“The activity was fun and the instructor was knowledgeable. The views were amazing and it's definitely an activity I will remember. The only thing that was odd is that when I booked the activity online, it said that it included water to drink so I didn't bring my own bottle. It also said they accepted card payments for anything extra. Turns out we had to pay for the water and the instructor just said it was too complicated to use the machine for card payments so he didn't even try. Note that it was very hot so this was a very important point...”
VIP Seville pub crawl with 3 included shots and VIP club entry. Meet at Alameda de Hércules, finish near Uthopía for a full night.
“We had so much fun and the guide was so great. The places we went were really cool, thank you for this night!”
Sip Montilla-Moriles wines in a cozy Córdoba shop with local tapas. Learn Fino, Oloroso, and Pedro Ximénez in about 1 hour.
“Our guide was ill, so he asked his father to do our tour for us! If I tried this at work, things would not go well, but in this case, it turned out to be quite fortunate for us! His father is a retired chef from a Michelin star restaurant and certainly knows a thing or two about wine! He provided several wines to sample as well as delicious charcuterie. There was only one other person besides my husband and I, and it was really nice all getting to know one another as well as learning about great local wines.”
Small-group Córdoba wine and cheese tasting with sherry, venencia barrel pours, and local cheese pairings, timed for sunset in the city.
“There was no sunset. On the contrary, event was conducted in host’s basement apartment. No windows. For some reason host copped an attitude and was argumentative. I was only English speaker in the group of five which seemed to annoy host. Wine and cheese was barely mediocre. The whole experience was shabby and not close to what was advertised.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
