Itinerary
At 9:45 am we'll pick you up from your hotel and hit the road to Carmona.
After a 30 minute journey, we arrive at the town itself, which won the bronze medal, for most charming village in Andalucia in 2015. We'll head back to the middle ages, visiting the remains of the Fortress of San Pedro, which retains its noble form thanks to an extensive restoration.
We'll tour the historic centre by foot, from the Cordoba Gate to the Sevilla Gate, passing through the San Fernando and Blas Infante squares. On this your we'll explain the gothic, Muslim and baroque heritage that the churches of San Bartolomé and San Pedro hold.
Then we'll head even further back in time, visiting the remains of the Roman necropolis at Carmona, one of the finest examples in the Seville region. Here you can find various scared remains of great importance, such as the Elephant Tomb - called such for the stone sculpture of an elephant which the archaeologists found here, the centre of the cult to the god Mitra.
We'll then head back to Sevilla by bus, arriving around 2 pm.
