BY TRAIN: If you don’t enjoy flying it is possible to travel to Seville by train from London but it’s not cheap. The easiest route is to take the Eurostar from London to Paris and then an overnight ‘trainhotel’ from Paris to Madrid. From Paris to Madrid prices start at £59 return for Eurostar and £60 each way in a basic sleeper compartment on the trainhotel. Once in Madrid, you take the AVE (Alta Velocidad Española) to Seville, which is approximately a 2hr journey and they run every hour. Prices for the AVE vary depending on the type of seat you would like. Tickets for all stages of the journey can be purchased from raileurope
The main train station is Estacion Santa Justa on Avenida Kansas City, a 15 minute walk from the city centre. Bus #27 goes from the station to Plaza de la Encarnación and bus #70 goes to the Plaza de España. The train station has a tourist information booth, currency exchange and cash machines, and left-luggage lockers
BY COACH: Eurolines do coaches to Seville several times a week. The outward journey takes just over 35 hours and the return is 37 hours. The price is £174 but should you require insurance add another £6. You need to ask yourself do you really want to spend 37 hrs stuck in a seat with very little movement when for the same price you could fly to other areas of Spain and get a train or coach to Seville!
