What to see during your tour in Seville with a rented minibus with driver

If you want to rent a bus for a trip or excursion that starts or ends in Seville, we suggest that you include these stops in your itinerary:

En la Espero te Esquina

A traditional tapas (traditional Spanish snacks/appetizers/bar food) bar, highly recommended by the locals. This is a classic, simple locale, but that’s why it’s so charming. Located on Corral del Rey Street. We recommend a dish that’s called “Solomillo al roque” (sirloin a la roque).

Casa Anselma

See classic flamenco performances and enjoy a traditional night in Seville. The décor is a mixture of medieval, classical, Sevillian, with an emphasis on flamenco, with lanterns, fans, paintings of Andalusians, and posters of bulls that barely leave the pink walls visible. There are also seats around a makeshift stage that people can dance on. This place has become so popular that it has become a must-see site. Located on Pagés del Corro Street.

Nocturnidad y Alevosía

Located on Ronda de Capuchinos Street, this is a great place to have a drink, with a large dance hall, an accessible bar, with peculiar lighting and décor, some billiards rooms, and some wonderful couches on which to rest after dancing.

Restaurant L’Oca Giuliva

Located on Mateos Gago Street in the middle of the city’s historic district. This is a tiny little place with a cozy, intimate interior. They serve a variety of incredible pastas at a very decent price. It’s considered the best Italian restaurant in the city. Our favorite dish is the “Pizza Porcini,” of which some of the ingredients are the Boletus Adulis mushroom, mozzarella, tomatoes, and parsley; the traditional Italian tiramisu stands out among the desserts.

Plaza de Armas Shopping Centre (Centro Comercial Plaza de Armas)

Originally built at the end of the nineteenth century, it has been restored to a perfect state and has numerous shops, bars, fast-food joints, restaurants, exhibitions, and several movie theaters. Located on Plaza de la Legión Street.

By bus to Festivals in Sevilla

One of the best excuses for your tour with private transport in a rented vehicle with driver around Seville is getting to know its festivals. They were declared of International Tourist interest. Two of them are the Holy Week (Semana Santa) and the April Fair (Feria de Abril). Normally both of these festivals take place in April. As this is a very bussy month in this province we advise you to have your bus rental arrangements sorted out well before.

Travel by minibus to Magic Island Theme Park

The other travel option for a family tour is the theme park called Isla Mágica on the island of Cartuja. It is a theme park that will take you to the time when America was being discovered. There are multimedia events on the central lake where you can also move and float around inside giant balls.

A must-see guided city walk around Barrio de Santa Cruz

We highly recommend a guided walk through el Barrio de Santa Cruz, one of the city"s historic districts, where you can find many Arab and Jewish souvenirs. Santa Cruz"s streets are narrow and winding and are shaded by unique Seville-style gardens. Many of them are still kept after the Muslim fashion, which places a heavy emphasis on decorating one"s surroundings with beautiful plants, fragrant flowers, and a little bit of water. You can also visit The Cathedral and Weathervane Tower (La Giralda); also be sure to visit Orange Tree Patio (el Patio de los Naranjos) and the The Castle (El Alcázar), which is a work of great beauty in and of itself and which dates to the year 884.
