Seville (Sevilla) in Spain

Home of flamenco dance, Sevilla is the capital of the Andalusia. The city is the fourth largest in Spain and it attracts many visitors. Seville is also where the bull fightings take place and there is also a museum dedicated to this tradition. From the Guadalquivir river to the old town and from the many tapas to the romantic little streets, Seville is a place that has many experiences to offer to visitors. The city can get pretty hot during July and August, so May and June should be preferred. Go to Casco Antiguo district  to visit special monuments such as the Cathedral or the royal palace of Alcazar.

Sevilla International Airport is located about 25 minutes drive from the city center.

A bus service http://www.tussam.es/horarios/pdf/LINEA_AEROPUERTO.pdf runs about every 30 minutes from just outside the Arrivals hall during most of the day (though with longer gaps 1pm-4pm) and costs approx. €2.40. Taxis are always available next to the bus stop and run on a fixed fare to Seville center, just under €18 during the day and just under €21 after 10pm and at weekends / holidays. Much controversy has been stirred by some taxi drivers trying to overcharge tourists, so be careful to pay no more than this if you are traveling into the city. Other destinations outside Seville obviously cost more and are metered. Tips are not necessary, though €1-2 for a polite, helpful service is appreciated.

La Parra Internation Airport in located 10km from Jerez de la Frontera, in the way to Seville.

Used by cheaper flight companies such as Ryanair (from Frankfurt-Hahn London-Stansted).

Sevilla Santa Justa Station is located on the eastern edge of Seville city centre. Completed in 1991, the station is the southern terminus of the Spanish high speed AVE train service.

High-speed, less than an hour to wonderful city of Córdoba, less than three hours trains run from Madrid to Seville; however, slower trains remain a bargain. And, there is an overnight train that runs from Barcelona to Seville in under 11 hours.

Driving is also always an option for long distance travel in Spain, but isn't as convenient or as useful once in town.

Regular buses run to/from most major cities, departing either from the Plaza de Armas bus station near the river, or the Prado de San Sebastián station near the University/Santa Cruz.
