Wondering what there is to do and see in Seville? Follow this three-day itinerary for an unforgettable whirlwind trip around the Andalusian capital.
Begin in the old Jewish quarter near the Cathedral and Giralda, where narrow, cobbled streets lead to secret squares flanked by orange trees. For lunch, Calle Mateos Gago is lined with traditional tapas bars — Bar Giralda and Bodega Santa Cruz are popular options.
One of the most beautiful examples of Andalusian architecture, built for the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition. The plaza features alcoves representing each Spanish province with decorative tiles. It has appeared on screen in Star Wars: Episode II and Lawrence of Arabia.
End the day with dinner and a performance at Los Gallos or La Casa de la Guitarra, two of Seville's most famous flamenco 'tablaos'.
Visit the world's largest Gothic cathedral, which contains Christopher Columbus's tomb and notable artwork including pieces by Goya and Murillo. The Giralda offers sweeping views after climbing its 37 ramps — purpose-built so that they could be climbed up on horseback.
One of the most spectacular examples of Mudéjar architecture in the Iberian Peninsula, featuring beautiful gardens and serving as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The structure recently appeared in Game of Thrones.
Metropol Parasol, completed in 2011, stands as a 26-metre-tall wooden structure — supposedly the largest in the world. The site includes the Antiquarium museum and panoramic terraces.
End the day with a scenic river passage under Puente de Triana, taking in the Triana neighbourhood and the Isla de La Cartuja.
Cross Puente Triana to explore this neighbourhood, the birthplace of many of Seville's most famous bullfighters, flamenco singers and dancers. The area includes Altozano square and the Church of Santa Ana.
This military watchtower contains a naval museum displaying old navigational instruments, historical documents, nautical charts and models.
Conclude your itinerary with a sunset ride past the major landmarks, the driver sharing legends and stories of Seville's past.
