About Tour Guide Beatriz P.
My name is Beatriz, I was born in Seville and I´m an experienced tour guide.
I studied Tourism in the University of Seville as I love studying languages, obtaining my guide license in 2.016, so today, I´ve got a job that makes me happy as every day is different, I can know visitors from different places around the world and I´ve known people I never thought I would meet through it.
I am specialised in cultural visits being my favourite themes: the roman period, the age of discoveries and the olive oil. If you prefer a day trip outside Seville and you want to discover cities like Córdoba, Ronda or Cádiz I can guide you as well.
When I´m not working I do like going to the cinema and enjoying its most wonderful movies, so I know everything about actors, actresses and directors. I also love spending time with my family, specially my daughter and my dog and reading.
If you want to know SEVILLE in a different way, join me! You will have an unforgettable experience!
