Adriana is wonderful! We all enjoyed our tour and she was so helpful even with recommendations for other things to do for the rest of our stay. Would highly recommend her!

Deborah 11 May 2025

Cloti is an excellent tour guide. She made my husband and I feel very welcomed to Seville. We had a wonderful walking tour full of interesting and unexpected bits of history and culture. We love the personal touch and being able to have a conversation instead of listening to a rote script. It was very special to be introduced to Seville this way - we highly recommend!

Natashia 2 May 2025

Cloti was very knowledgeable about the history of Seville as well as the history of important cities that were related to our tour such as Cadiz, Granada, Cordoba to name a few She was very professional and patient giving us time to enjoy the places of interest and taking pictures, She was very helpful, she pointed out restaurants, extra places to visit and distance from Seville On top of that, It stated raining during our excursion and she went out of her way and bought us some umbrellas I definitely would recommend this wonderful lady as a tourist guide

Tina was awesome and, of course, being a native of Seville, showed us the real city. As the locals enjoy it. We sampled good cuisine, Spanish beer and olives. This was one of the most enjoyable ways to experience Seville. Best 3 hours we spent. Thanks Tina!

City Unscripted continues to deliver. Pablo was the perfect guide: Seville-born and passionate about his city, he also studied history and so has an exceptionally deep knowledge about Seville and Spain, with a smart sense of humour. Our tour was well paced and varied, which gave us an excellent sense of the city that helped us in the days that followed. Add that Pablo gave us superb recommendations, and we feel that a big part of why we loved our visit to Seville, was thanks to him!

Secret Palma: Hidden Gems & Local Stories

You might begin just behind Palma’s main square, slipping into narrow lanes where workshops, small shops, and cafés serve locals. Some guests browse, others move quickly into the next quiet corner.

Courtyard Calm

Step into a space of stillness

Your host could lead you into a tucked-away courtyard or cloister. Some guests pause to enjoy the cool, quiet atmosphere, while others pass through, using it as a link to hidden streets nearby.

Market Street Rhythms

Everyday routines in motion

You might wander along a market street where residents buy fruit, bread, or crafts. Some guests stop by a bakery or watch the daily routines unfold. Others prefer to keep walking into the next small neighborhood.

Neighborhood Square

Local life around a plaza

Your walk could shift to a quieter plaza surrounded by independent cafés and shops. Some guests linger here; others prefer to continue exploring the side streets.

Reflective Close

A calm ending point

You might finish in a leafy square or peaceful street where the day slows down. Some guests stay longer for conversation and tips, while others close with a quick look before heading back into the city.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

Joanne was awesome. Her knowledge of history and culture was phenomenal. She personalized the trip for us and our taste.

Quito has a beautiful historic center. I think a 2-hour tour is enough if you don't plan to go inside every church. Our tour guide Pamela was very knowledgeable, and we could see how she loves her city and the culture.
