Car Trip From Lisbon to Seville

A scenic trip from Lisbon to Seville should be on every travel enthusiast's bucket list. Over 280 miles of rustic hills and sunkissed lanes separate these two European hotbeds of culture. Each one gives you a front-row seat to adventure while traveling between these amazing cites.

Traveling between Portugal and Spain is a golden opportunity to experience the beauty and culture of both countries. But if it's your first time traveling here, it can feel overwhelming. Fortunately, Daytrip is here to ensure you have an unforgettable experience and avoid any potholes along the way. So, continue reading our Lisbon to Seville guide to uncover everything you need for a stress-free voyage!

About Seville

Everything great about Spain can be found in Seville. Jaw-dropping architecture litters the city; palm tree-lined walkways express its laid-back atmosphere; and historical monuments constantly remind you of Spain's extraordinary past.

Madrid is the political and financial capital of Spain. Yet Seville is unquestionably the cultural center. All 700,000 friendly residents will agree and will gladly explain why it came to be.

However, one factor distinguishes itself from the rest of the country. It's a mouth-watering food scene. The average summer temperature of 89°F and proximity to the coast along the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean drift fresh salt air to bless the local ingredients. As a result, the region produces some of the best-cured meats, seafood, and, most importantly, citrusy oranges worldwide!

Although Andalusia's largest city portrays a carefree and relaxed ambiance, it holds a secret. Once the sun drops, the streets burst into life with tapa bars and street performers. You can dive head-first into the vibrant local dance scene. Or you can observe this spectacle from the comfort of your seat in the pleasant temperatures of the evening and enjoy a delicious, handcrafted cocktail!

Things to Do When You Get to Seville

The Alcázar of Seville

Andalusia is home to seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites. And the Alcázar of Seville is arguably the pick of the bunch! This exquisitely designed palace sits on the former site of one of the city's most vital defensive forts. When the Abbadid Dynasty took control of the region in the 11th century, they developed the space into their headquarters. Today, you can admire the sight in its perfect condition and walk in the footsteps of historical figures and the millions of visitors before you.

### Plaza de España No trip to Seville is complete without witnessing the Plaza de España. The city's most beloved squares have a Spanish Renaissance style decorated with golden structures that light up under the sun's rays. Tourists come here to capture photos of this majestic setting. But if you want to travel like a local, come when the sun sets. You can watch the area transform into an upbeat space filled with friends for a quick snack, chat, and a refreshing beverage! ### Plaza de Toros de la Real Maestranza Not far from the center is Plaza de Toros de la Real Maestranza, a 12,000-seater venue host to the most famous cultural event in Spain, bullfighting. If you visit Spain in April, you can attend the Seville Fair, the city's most renowned bullfighting affair. Don't worry if you're not here in the spring or don't want to watch a bullfight. You can roam the grounds and educate yourself in the on-site museum.

A great day from Seville to Lisbon

Daytrip is a great service avoiding airports, taxis, with the benefits of sight seeing and arrival in Lisbon stress free. We did have quite a few issues trying to pay on the Daytrip platform with multiple staff sending multiple emails, but once they were overcome, Armando our driver, picked us up on time in Seville. He was extremely flexible and informative. Gave us eating tips in Lisbon too. The van was very comfortable for us (3 adults) and clean. Thank you Armando for a great trip.

Private Transfer from Seville to Lisbon

This was my first time using Team Daytrip and I must say I was extremely impressed with the service my wife and I received for our privqte transfer from Seville to Lisbon. Pedro was our driver and he was outstanding. He was right on time the morning of our trip and could not have been any more professional. We did the additional stop in Evora. He dropped us off in a great location and allowed plenty of time for us to explore this beautiful village. When we reached Lisbon he dropped us off right at the front door of our hotel. Team Daytrip and Pedro both far exceeded my expectations.

Great driving trip from Lisbon to Seville with a wonderful stop in Merida.

Completely excellent trip from Lisbon to Sevilla. Nuno is an ideal driver, with excellent customer service instincts. He was a punctual, safe, skillful driver, and very generous about giving us information about Portuguese and Spanish culture when we asked questions. He set us up with a great lunch break in Merida. His car was pristine. We absolutely enjoyed the trip. Thanks!
