What first-timers get wrong in Seville
Book the Alcazar and Cathedral online before flying, because walk-up queues in April run to hours. Semana Santa and the April Feria fill the city and multiply hotel rates, so check the dates before booking anything at all. Bars charge different prices at the bar, the table and the terrace from the same menu, so ask for the barra price if you are standing.
What things cost in Seville
A TUSSAM bus or tram single is €1.40 and cheaper again with a rechargeable tarjeta. A tapa runs €3 to €5, so three or four make a meal for €12 to €18. The Alcazar is €15.50 and the Cathedral is charged separately. A cana of beer often stays under €2.50 in Triana. Bellas Artes is free with an EU passport.
Seville with kids, realistically
Plaza de Espana's rowing boats on the canal cost a few euros for around thirty-five minutes and work at any age. The Alcazar gardens have peacocks and a hedge maze. Heat is the real constraint, since July and August afternoons routinely pass forty degrees, so plan mornings and evenings only. Santa Cruz's cobbled alleys are narrow for prams and the tram along Constitucion helps.
What to eat in Seville
Tapas are ordered standing at the bar and settled at the end, at places like Bodega Santa Cruz or El Rinconcillo, which has been pouring since 1670. Look for espinacas con garbanzos, spinach with chickpeas, and pescaito frito. Salmorejo is thicker than gazpacho and topped with egg and ham. Triana across the river charges less than Santa Cruz for identical plates.
Seville after dark
Nothing starts early. Dinner at ten is normal and bars fill after midnight, particularly along Calle Betis in Triana with the river and the cathedral opposite. Alameda de Hercules is the younger alternative square. Flamenco divides between tourist tablaos and the penas where locals go, with Casa de la Memoria booking small honest shows. Summer heat pushes everything outdoors and later still.
