Decorate a traditional "botijo" with a master ceramist

Discover Andalusian craftsmanship and explore the history of the botijo, a traditional clay vessel made to cool water that is integral to Spain’s dry, sun-drenched climate. We’ll work together at my artisan workshop for a hands-on ceramic painting experience. • I’ll explain the botijo’s evolution from utilitarian object to cultural icon, its significance in Spanish households, and its artistic legacy in works by Goya and Velázquez. • Learn the UNESCO-recognized lime painting technique from Morón de la Frontera, which has protected the botijo’s cooling function for centuries. • Let’s paint! Using traditional pigments and techniques, personalize your own botijo, following Andalusian patterns or creating your own unique design. I’ll offer guidance and tips throughout. You’ll leave with a fully functional, handpainted botijo as a unique souvenir from your adventure in Seville—and a connection to the city’s artisanal heritage.

I’ll show you the city through an architectural lens, mapping its evolution from medieval to modern times.

From its panoramic platform, take in an aerial view of Seville’s historic center, Triana, and the architectural legacy that lines the riverbanks. • Stroll along the Guadalquivir, retracing the trade routes that once transported Seville’s renowned ceramics. • Then, step inside Centro Cerámica Triana, a restored pottery factory where Andalusian tiles were crafted for palaces, churches, and courtyards.

- Skip-the-line Alhambra and Generalife guided tour -

Entrance tickets not included. Contact me always previously you book this experience: -If you do not have tickets to visit the Alhambra, you can purchase them on the Alhambra website --> Tickets --> "Alhambra General", or I can help you buy them. -If you already have the tickets to visit the Alhambra, the tour will take place according to the Nasrid Palaces assigned schedule of yours. The Alhambra is divided into 3 parts: Nasrid Palaces, Alcazaba and Generalife. When you buy the tickets on the official website you can choose a time to visit the Nasrid Palaces because only this place has a specific schedule. The Nasrid Palaces are located in the middle part of the Alhambra, therefore I usually start 30mint. before visiting the Palaces, like that the tour is easier and less tiring. Here's an example: If you buy the tickets and choose 9:30 a.m. to visit the Nasrid Palaces, we would start the tour at 9:00 visiting first the Alcazaba, then the Palaces and after that the others parts left. For more information, feel free to contact me! P.S. If you are looking forward to visit the Albaicin and Sacromonte, you can also check this other tour of mine --> https://www.airbnb.es/experiences/2615977
