Privater Autotransfer von Lagos nach Seville

Although Madrid is Spain's financial capital, Seville is unquestionably its cultural center. The city's more than 700,000 residents will agree and tell you why it's a place steeped in rich cultural significance. Or you can just look at Seville's UNESCO-listed Cathedral, Alcazar, and Archivo de Indias.

One of the city's elements that showcases its incredible culture is its cuisine. Since Seville is near the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, it's a coastal town that often sees average summer temperatures of 89° F. This warm weather and its location on the coast allow Seville to grow, harvest, and fish some of the tastiest ingredients for its local meals. So those visiting should be sure to try the city's seafood, cured meats, and citrusy oranges that are bursting with a tangy sweetness you won't find elsewhere in the world.

Food aside, Seville also owes its vibrant cultural air to its after-dark activities. This city has some of the best tapas bars in the world, and the entertainment from street performers is unrivaled. No matter where one goes after the sun sets, they'll be encompassed by a thrilling nightlife that tantalizes, entrances, and entertains.

Book attraction tickets in advance

You can visit Seville and many of the places along the way without any advanced planning and see and do much. Unfortunately, you might miss out on exploring some of the best places if you don't have a ticket.

That's why buying and booking tickets in advance is best to avoid a sold-out attraction. After all, there's nothing worse than traveling all the way from Lagos to Seville and being denied access.

Get tips from your driver

If you plan to travel from Lagos to Seville and use a private car service like Daytrip, why not ask your driver for local tips and insights? Since your driver is more than likely familiar with the areas you want to traverse, they can give you local insights into the best places to visit along the way and what to see, do, and avoid when you get to Seville!

From Lagos to Seville by train

If you want to take the train from Lagos to Seville, you should note that only one train line runs this route and doesn't go the entire way. You must take a bus transfer with ALSA to get the rest of the way.

The Comboios De Portugal has a train leaving the Lagos station every three hours, and the trip takes only twenty minutes to get to the Portimao station, with a ticket price between $5 and $7. From Portimao, there is one transfer and a one-and-a-half-hour stopover before you take the bus to Seville. The bus trip takes about four hours and 15 minutes with ALSA, and ticket prices are between $36 and $58.

Although you will get to see some of the beautiful scenery along the way, you won't get to stopover and visit any local attractions, and it can be a hassle to transfer from the train to the bus. So keep this in mind before booking a train ride.

From Lagos to Seville by private car

Overall, using a private car service like Daytrip is the best way to travel from Lagos to Seville. There are numerous benefits involving driving with Daytrip. For example, you can book when you want to be fetched from your accommodation to start your trip to Seville, and you can add sightseeing stops along the way. No other option lets you visit the Archaeological Ensemble of Italica or make a wine-break at Quinta da Tor.

Daytrip is also affordable at about $68 per seat, and you won't need to handle your luggage or fear for your safety since Daytrip hires professional drivers who know the roads. Not to mention, all cars are modern, well-maintained, and comfortable, and drivers are fluent in English, so they can give you a few travel tips!

From Lagos to Seville by flight

Sadly, flying is more hassle than it's worth if you need to travel from Lagos to Seville since there are no direct flights between these two cities. You will need to take the train and bus before you get to the airport, and the entire trip will take almost 10 hours and cost between $93 and $171.

For example, you would need to take the train from Lagos, which leaves every three hours. The trip is an hour and 45 minutes, with the train dropping you off in Faro. From Faro, you will then take the bus to Faro airport, which is a short 20-minute trip. Once at the airport, you'll travel from Faro to Seville, which is at best a 5-hour endeavor since there aren't direct flights. And that doesn't count the time needed for check-in, security, getting your luggage, or getting from Seville Airport to your accommodation.

As we said, it's long and tedious.

Royal Alcázar of Seville

If you don't have much time in Seville but want the most bang for your buck, you must visit the Royal Alcázar of Seville. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is the oldest palace in Europe that’s still in use, and, dare we say, the most beautiful?

This Moorish and Christian architecturally styled palace has a long-standing history that stretches back thousands of years. History enthusiasts (and those with an eye for beautiful things) will love exploring the palace and taking in detailed mosaics, peaceful waters, high ceilings, and serene gardens. And if you’re a Game of Thrones fan, you might recognize the garden and intricately detailed rooms as exotic Dorne!

The Seville Cathedral

The Cathedral of Seville is another of the city’s trio of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. From a Moorish mosque, it’s been repurposed, rebuilt, and redesigned into the world’s largest Gothic cathedral.

This can easily be a whole-day adventure since the entry tickets also include access to Giralda Tower, and other sites. The Giralda Tower will bring you 340 ft (104 m) above Seville for some incomparable panoramic views!

Museo de Bellas Artes

There are many museums in Seville worth visiting, but if you want to explore a little-known one, you must plan a trip to Museo de Bellas Artes. The Museo de Bellas Artes is a museum of fine art, and it can be found in the sixteenth-century Convento de la Merced.

It has high ceilings and elegant courtyards and is filled with extraordinary Spanish paintings and sculptures from the 15th-20th centuries. You'll get to feast your eyes on masterpieces by Velázquez, El Greco, and Murillo.

Alameda

Those looking for a break from attraction hopping who want to do a spot of shopping should visit Alameda. This hip, new alternative neighborhood is filled with funky vintage shops, off-beat cafes, odd bars, and quaint restaurants serving interesting cuisine.

After shopping and grabbing a bite to eat, you can look at the Alameda de Hercules found within the neighborhood. The Alameda de Hercules is a pair of ancient Roman columns that are worth a picture or two.
