Don\u2019t waste precious time in queues!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Seville\u2019s stunning monuments, such as the Cathedral and the Real Alc\u00e1zar Palace, are absolute must-see things in the city<\/a>. However, given the popularity of these monuments– even more so since Game of Thrones was filmed inside the Alc\u00e1zar– means that there is often quite a queue to gain entrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cathedral: <\/strong>Visit to the much less popular church at Plaza del Salvador and get a combined ticket (9 euros) which gives you entrance to the amazing El Salvador Church itself, and also to the Cathedral afterward. The cost of the combined ticket is the same as the entrance to the Cathedral!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alc\u00e1zar:<\/strong> Tickets can be purchased online for an added cost of just 1 euro, meaning you can stroll past the long queue and enter much quicker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be armed with knowledge how to get from the airport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bus:<\/strong> Seville\u2019s airport is located about 15 km from the center of the city, but thankfully is very well-connected. The airport bus runs approximately every 30 minutes at a flat cost of \u20ac4 each way, taking about thirty minutes to reach its final destination, Plaza de Armas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taxi:<\/strong> If you do prefer to get a taxi to the city there is a flat rate of \u20ac25 for the trip– this price is higher during public holidays, late at night and early in the morning. But remember– much of the historic center is filled with small cobbled streets, so it’s quite possible that your taxi may not be able to drop you at the door of your accommodation! The logistics of how to get to Seville<\/a> are crucial to relieving stress when you arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eat when the locals eat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mealtimes in Spain are a typical source of confusion for visitors<\/a>, and understandably so! At the times when you may typically be eating lunch or dinner at home, the doors to Seville’s restaurants may not even be open yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
