Transport

Plane

Seville Airport is conveniently located, 10 kilometres from central Seville. There are few scheduled international flights. Cheap charter flights to Seville are scarce. At times more economical flights can be found by arriving to Jerez de la Frontera and Málaga, and then taking the bus or train to Seville.

Rental Car

We generally do not recommend renting a car during your visit to Seville if staying for several days. It is generally best to rent a car beginning the day of departure from the city to avoid parking fees and navigating through the city center. Past guests have recommended the Carjet service.
If possible book in advance as the local rental prices are relatively high, and holidays or other events can limit availability.
