We queued for tickets last week. I arrived at 7.45 and the queue was already half way round the square, people at the front of the queue had been there since 7, I finally managed to purchase my tickets at 11am. We were told there were 450 tickets available for on the day, these were timed slots throughout the day. You need ID for everyone you’re buying a ticket for (photos were fine) and they only accept card payments.
We’re visiting Seville tomorrow and haven’t pre-booked tickets. As they’re sold out online, how early should I get to the ticket office? The website mentions it opens at 9am. Didn’t realise it would be so busy in October! Thanks.

Same here, did you manage to get in? We are visiting Seville tomorrow and all tickets are sold out online
Did you book your guide before your trip, or can you book one on the day. I have already booked tickets but no guide. I am hoping it is the same as the Alhambra, and there are guides outside looming around that you can book?
A:
We did not use a guide (nor thought one was required). There are plenty of placards describing features throughout the grounds.
