How to get there: Getting around the province of Seville is easy thanks to its excellent transport links. A wide network of roads, highways, and motorways connects the capital with every corner of Andalusia and the rest of Spain. Within the province itself, distances are manageable: even the farthest town lies only about 134 km away, meaning you can reach any of its six regions and more than 100 towns in under an hour and a half.
Some of the province’s highlights, such as Carmona or Osuna, are much closer—Carmona is around 30 km from Seville city, while Osuna is about 86 km—making them perfect for day trips or short getaways.

How to visit: As unforgettable as Seville city is, the province invites you to slow down and discover its soul. Plan to spend at least two or three days following one of the seven routes that reveal the Islamic heritage scattered across whitewashed towns, rolling hills, and timeless olive groves. Along the way, history and flavor intertwine with breathtaking scenery, offering not just a journey through the past but also a peaceful escape from the bustle of the capital.

Points of interest: Walled towns from the period of Al-Andalus and Islamic fortresses will captivate you Places such as Aznalcázar, Sanlúcar la Mayor, Alcalá del Río, Alcalá de Guadaíra, Écija, Marchena, and Carmona still preserve traces of that fascinating history.
The vast and rich Islamic heritage is without a doubt one of the province’s main attractions —but not the only one. Its landscapes, dotted with whitewashed villages and endless olive groves, are another highlight. And if history fascinates you, Al-Andalus is not the only chapter worth exploring. Head to the archaeological site of Itálica —the first Roman city in Hispania— to discover the legacy of another remarkable period.
For those captivated by palaces and stately homes, Osuna is a must. In 2024, one of its streets, Calle San Roque, was recognized as the most beautiful street in Spain and the second most beautiful in Europe. Lined with stunning palaces, it is a true showcase of architectural styles.
