Insider timing tips
- •The intense summer heat (July-August) makes outdoor sightseeing nearly impossible during peak daylight hours; plan activities for early morning or late evening.
- •Semana Santa and Feria de Abril (late March/April) are iconic but bring massive crowds and peak prices; book accommodation months in advance if visiting then.
- •Seville's 'spring' (March-May) is brief but spectacular, with orange blossoms scenting the air, followed by the intense heat of early summer.
- •The shoulder months of October and November offer a sweet spot with pleasant weather, fewer crowds than spring, and moderate prices.
- •While winter is mild, it's also the wettest season; pack layers and an umbrella for potential downpours.
