Day Trips

If you fancy a day trip, Carmona, Córdoba and Cádiz are all worth a visit. The Mezquita in Córdoba is an absolute must-see if you have the time, and the old centre of the little town of Carmona is very picturesque, but a personal favourite is the coastal city of Cádiz.

• Córdoba and Cádiz can be reached by train, leaving from the Santa Justa station. There is the option of taking the AVE fast train from Seville-Córdoba (45 minutes), or you can take the regular train (1 1/4 hours) which is much cheaper. The train from Seville-Cádiz takes just under two hours. There is a RENFE booking office in the centre of town on Calle Zaragoza (just off the Plaza Nueva) or you can go to the train station itself. Booking online with RENFE can be a confusing and frustration experience.
• Carmona is a short bus ride away of approximately half an hour, leaving from the Prado de San Sebastian bus station. There is no train service to Carmona.
