If you are travelling on a budget or prefer to use the public transport, the EA bus connects Sevilla Airport with the city centre, via the AVE train station. The bus stop at the airport is located just outside the terminal. The bus has a long operating schedule, you can catch one every half an hour. They break between 1AM-5AM.

The bus stops at various places around the city, including the Avenue Carlos V (for Jardines del Prado), Paseo Colon (For Torre del Oro), and finishes in Plaza de Armas.

Hiring a Car?
Hiring a car at Seville airport is also convenient option if you want to explore the local area and beyond at your own pace. There are several car rental companies located at the airport, including well-known international brands and local providers.
In order to hire a car you need a valid driving licence and a credit card in your name with enough credit for the deposit. It is advisable to book your rental car in advance if you are travelling to Sevilla during popular times of the year. Being a small airport, the rental car offer is much smaller than at Malaga Airport for example, which has literally thousands of rental cars at any time of the year.
Hiring a car at Sevilla Airport costs around 15-20 euros a day, once you add all the extra insurances, which I highly recommend you take. I can’t even count how many times I found my car bumped or scratched in the supermarket car park! However, you don’t have to buy this insurance from the rental agency, as they will try to oversell it. I usually book my rental cars through Holiday Extras, which show me all the costs upfront. If a car is advertised at 2 euros a day, it will never be 2 euros a day! I also choose to buy the extra insurance through Holiday Extras as well, because it’s a fraction of the price the rental agency would charge me. This means that I will have to pay the deposit for the car on my credit card, but if something happens, I will get it back and Holiday Extras will deal with the rental agency.
