Meet your guide and small group in Plaza del Triunfo. From here, you'll glimpse the long lines forming outside the Alcazar, but no worries—that won’t be you. You'll enjoy exclusive early access fit for royalty as you head past the crowds and are whisked straight into the palace through doors opened just for your group. Once inside, your guide will lead you through the empty palace and reveal the secrets behind its history, architecture, and notable figures such as King Ferdinand, Queen Isabella and Christopher Columbus.
After exploring the palace, head outside to take a peaceful stroll through the gardens. Over the centuries, each monarch who used the Alcazar expanded the gardens to their current size of seven hectares (17 acres). Today, they're home to many exotic species of trees, flowers, and plants as well as some friendly peacocks.

Lola C was an excellent tour guide. She brought the Alcázar to life. Her story telling interweaving history with insider knowledge was fantastic. Would highly recommend her as a guide!
This tour was wonderful! Absolutely worth it to enter before the public. Our guide, Lola, was so lovely. Extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. We had only 6 in our group, so it was almost like a private tour. Thank you for the amazing experience!
Alba was so incredibly informative and fun. Her animated personality entertained and enlightened. The early tour kept the August heat at bay. We feel like we got the most out of this tour.
