SEVILLA Y SU RÍO

The history of Seville is closely linked to that of the Guadalquivir River, since from its origins, it played a great role as a river port and bridge between the Atlantic Ocean and the interior of the Andalusian region.

The first references are found in the Tartessos and the archaeological excavations carried out in the Cuesta del Rosario allowed us to affirm that the human settlement became stable around the 9th century BC.

Today, Seville remains closely linked to its river, since this gives it great beauty and tourist interest. Source of life and wealth, it has witnessed thousands of love affairs of Sevillians and non-Sevillians, who have walked their romances, across its bridges and its two banks. In the same way, the Río Grande, has been the protagonist of countless poems and fabulous stories, describing the idyll between the Guadalquivir River, Seville and Triana.

The Guadalquivir River in Seville allows us to visit a wide variety of points of interest such as: The Alamillo Bridge, the Barqueta Bridge, the Cristo de la Expiración Bridge, the Isabel II Bridge, the San Telmo Bridge, the Remedios Bridge, the Delicias Bridge and the V Centenario Bridge.

Torre del Oro Cruise offers the possibility of taking a boat ride and touring the city from the river, giving the passenger maximum comfort and satisfaction.
