From the airport to the city centre Andalusia
Two options for getting to Seville from San Pablo airport.
EAbus service to San Sebastián Prado Station, every 30 min, from 5.20 a.m. to 1.15 a.m., average duration 30 min. (€4). One stop at Santa Justa station, connections on arrival with tramway and San Sebastián bus station.
Cabs: from €25 to €30 to the city center (approx. 10 km).
Arrival by train Andalusia
By train, direct AVE connections to Madrid, Barcelona and Cordoba, and to Granada, with a change at Antequera. Media Distancia trains to all Andalusian provincial capitals. Cercanías trains to the province of Seville (www.renfe.com). Bus line 32 to the city center from the station.
Public transport Andalusia
Coming by bus. Two bus stations in Seville. For the most part, the Plaza de Armas station serves the west (province of Huelva, Portugal) and Cordoba, Malaga, Granada, Jaén as well as Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia (Alsa https://www.alsa.es and Damas https://damas-sa.es). For the province of Cadiz, choose Grupo Valenzuela (http://www.grupovalenzuela.com). The Prado de San Sebastián station serves the provinces of Seville and Cadiz, with Los Amarillos (https://samar.es) and Grupo Valenzuela. To get around Andalusia, it's sometimes more direct than the train and always cheaper.
In Seville, the company Tussam (http://www.tussam.es) operates some 40 lines, and you can obtain maps, including that of the tramway (T1), at its ticket offices in Plaza Encarnación, Plaza Nueva and Prado de Sebastián, among others (fare: €1.40 one-way ticket, €7.60 multi-trip card (10). As the heart of the city center is pedestrianized, you'll be more interested in the C1, C2, C3 and C4 circular lines. For the T1 tramway line, there are three interesting stops: Prado de San Sebastián, close to one of the bus stations, Puerta Jerez, close to the Alcázar and the cathedral, and Plaza de Cuba, leading to Triana.
Bike, scooters & co Andalusia
In Seville, the city offers 180 km of carrer bici, bicycle paths identified by raised circles on the ground. Sevibici (www.sevici.es), the equivalent of Paris's Velib', provides 2,500 bicycles at 250 points (free for the first half-hour, then €1.03 or €0.51 for the next hour, depending on whether the subscription is short or long). Numerous bike rental points, costing around €8 for 2 hours, €15 for an electric bike.
Since June 2021, the city has introduced a scooter rental system (2,000), managed by two companies: Reby (http://reby.com) and Voi (www.voi.com) with a view to 200 points in Seville. Electric scooters are not allowed on sidewalks and their speed is limited to 30 km. They can be rented at the Bike Center and returned to the same location.
With a driver Andalusia
Cabs can take up to 4 passengers at no extra charge. They're easy to find in Seville, at Plaza Nueva (near the Town Hall), Plaza del Duque (near the Corte inglés) and Plaza de España. Or book them by phone: www.radiotaxidesevilla.es or https://teletaxisevilla.es. Count €5 to €8 for a short ride in the center. The routes followed are sometimes expensive, as many streets are one-way, and often worth numerous detours. Try to identify on a map if it's not easier to get there on foot.
By car Andalusia
Seville's traffic is fairly heavy, and the historic downtown area is almost entirely pedestrianized. So it's best to leave your car in the parking lot, without leaving anything in the boot. There are plenty of parking lots in the city center, but they are quite expensive. Expect to pay at least €15 per day. The same applies to Granada and all Andalusian cities. For the time being, no city has an entrance fee.
Accessibility Andalusia
Public transport, most often buses, is equipped to accommodate disabled people and enable their mobility, as are some cabs, which indicate this. The same applies to baby carriages. On the other hand, like everyone else, you'll need to take care on some of Seville's main roads, where streetcars, bicycles and pedestrians sometimes cross paths in ways that aren't always easy to understand.
