If you are planning to visit Seville and find that visiting museums could be coslty, you might want to invest in a Sevilla Card. It will give you free passage to most of the museums, unlimited free bus rides to popular attractions, considerable discounts from participating establishments and so much more.
The card is your ticket to the following museums: Andalusian Centre of Contemporary Art, Museum of Archaeology, Museum of Popular Art and Customs, Museum of Fine Arts, Museum of Carriages, Military Historic Museum, and Bullring and Bullfighting Museum.
After your survey of the city's museum, bring along your Sevilla Card and take a relaxing cruise along picturesque Guadalquivir River through Cruceros Torre del Oro for free. If you want to experience what a theme park is like in Spain sans the admission fee, just drop by Isla Magica with your card at the ready.
Sevilla Card also allows you to take unlimited rides on the sightseeing bus. So, you can go wherever you want to go and stay there for as long or as short as you like without worrying about your transportation to the next destination. All you have to do is to wait for the next sightseeing bus to take you there.
Moreover, your Sevilla Card ensures that you get to taste the quintessential Spanish experience of eating tapas. You can pick up your free tapas and a beer in one of the participating bars.
Depending on how long you plan to stay in Seville, you can choose a card that is valid for 24, 48 or 72 hours. At the time of writing, the cards cost 50 euros, 60 euros and 65 euros respectively. To save a few bucks, it is better to buy online for a discounted price.
Your card also comes with a guide and map. Check your guide for brief descriptions of the major landmarks and monuments. It will help you plan where you want to go and where you want to spend most of your time in the city. The map is also essential especially when you are planning to take walking tours of the Seville's old quarter and scenic squares.
Here are a few reminders on how to use your card:
When dining or shopping in participating establishments, make sure to show your Sevilla Card before asking for the bill. Otherwise, you may be required to pay the full price. Also, you should know that some participating establishments may require the discount coupons found in your Seville guides before they will grant your discount.
To get the most of your Sevilla Card ensure that the monuments, landmarks and other destinations you are interested in are open within the day of your first card usage. Remember, the card's validity is limited to several hours only each day. It is best to time your very first use of the card early in the morning so that you have the rest of the day to roam around the city and take the most advantage of what the card offers.
