• Visit birthplace of Trajan and Hadrian
• See mosaics and amphitheatre
• Tour medieval monastery

The experience

Itálica sits outside Seville as the oldest Roman city built on the Iberian Peninsula, and it's where the emperors Trajan and Hadrian were born. A private guide walks you through the streets and into the amphitheatre: the same stone structure where Game of Thrones was filmed. You'll see the mosaics that survived nearly two thousand years, and the tour also takes in the medieval fortress monastery on the site, a Gothic and Mudéjar structure that sits within the Roman remains.

The four-hour tour includes all entry fees and taxes, so there's nothing to sort out at the gate. If you book the option with transport, pickup happens from your Seville hotel or a central meeting point. The driver coordinates the timing with you beforehand. Wheelchair-accessible routes are available, and the site accommodates strollers and service animals. The guide speaks your choice of English, Spanish, Italian or French, and the pace suits all fitness levels.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Spanish, French and Italian.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What exactly is the amphitheatre at Itálica, and why was it used for Game of Thrones?

Itálica's amphitheatre is a Roman arena built in the 1st century and still largely intact. It's one of the best-preserved structures on the site. The scale and stone architecture made it a natural filming location for the Targaryen scenes in Game of Thrones, and you'll walk the same tiers and arena floor the production used.

How long does the tour take, and what's included in the price?

The tour runs four hours and covers entry to Itálica, the amphitheatre, the mosaics, and the medieval monastery. All fees and taxes are included. You pay nothing extra at the gate. Pickup from Seville is available if you choose the transport option at checkout.

Do I need to book transport from Seville, or can I get to Itálica on my own?

Transport is optional. You can book the tour with pickup from your Seville hotel or a central point, or you can arrange your own way to the site and meet the guide there. Either way, the tour itself and all site access are the same.

Is this tour accessible for people with mobility concerns or families with young children?

Yes. Itálica has wheelchair-accessible routes through the site, and families can bring strollers or prams for infants and small children. Service animals are allowed. The tour is suitable for all fitness levels, though the site involves walking over uneven Roman stone in places.
