The experience

About this quest

Seville, 1931. The streets are alive with colour, music and secrets. You are Esperanza Segovia, a determined young woman sent from Badajoz to find your sister Beatriz, who vanished after enrolling at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts.

She stopped writing a week ago, and your mother fears the worst. But you suspect something else: a scandal, a secret life, or a deliberate escape from duty. One thing is clear: you must find her before the family inheritance is decided.

Follow clues through the Seville Cathedral, the Royal Alcazar, the Jewish Quarter, and the Alameda de Hercules as Seville's darkest legends come disturbingly to life around you. One of the most gripping things to do in Seville's Old Town, this self-guided walking tour blends real history, dark mystery, and more sibling rivalry than is strictly healthy.

Will you bring Beatriz home? Or take her place?

Is this for you?

Who it's for

First-time visitors who want to see Seville's historic centre on foot, from the cathedral and Calle Susona to Las Setas, while tracing a sister who vanished in 1931. Couples, friends and families who like a story and puzzles get nearly three hours of daytime walking at their own pace. If 4.1 km on foot is more than you want, or you prefer a live guide to quiz, choose another option.
