On foot
The historic centre is compact and flat, and almost everything on this site is inside a twenty-minute walk of the cathedral. ⚠️ In summer that twenty minutes at two in the afternoon is a different proposition from the same walk at nine.
Bikes and the tram
Seville built a serious network of segregated bike lanes and a public hire scheme, and the city is flat enough that it works. A short tram line runs through the centre and a metro line serves the outskirts.
⚠️ Fares and passes change; the operator publishes them and this site does not.
Getting here
Seville has its own airport and is on the high-speed rail line — the train from Madrid is the usual way in. Córdoba is a short hop up the same line, and Cádiz, Málaga and Granada are all reachable for a day out.
Booking the practical bits
Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you book through one we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. It does not affect what is recommended here, and no sight page on this site carries one.
Three things people actually need here: a driver from the airport or from Santa Justa, somewhere to leave a bag on the day of a timed Alcázar slot — large bags do not go into the cathedral either — and a data plan that works before you land.
