Seville has international connections by plane, trainand highways to other cities in Andalucía, Spain or Europe. CIEE organize multiple trips every academic semester to cities with a large touristic interest, like Cádiz, Córdoba or Granada.

Cádiz is worldwide known because of their Carnival inFebruary. It is a pleasure to walk through their streets while you enjoy the breeze coming from the Atlantic Ocean. It has the biggest urban beach in Spain.

Ninety minutes by bus from Sevilla you will reach thecity of Córdoba. There is the well-known Mosque (World Heritage in 1994) and the May festivity of the “patios” (streets and private patios decorated with flowers) make the city a “must visit” for all our students. The beauty of their streets and monuments, asa result of the presence of Roman, Jewish, Arab and Christian civilizations will make you fall in love with this city.

As historical center of the Spanish reign of “CatholicKings”, Granada is loved by all the tourists. The Alhambra palace is one of five most visited monuments of Spain, 2,5 million visitors in 2016. It was also nominated to be one of the new seven Wonders of the World.

For natures lovers, in the Andalusian, you can enjoythe city of Ronda in Málaga, the “White towns” of Cádiz, the snowy mountains of Sierra Nevada in Granada or “LaSierra de Aracena” in Huelva.

Outside the region of Andalucía; Valencia, Madrid,Barcelona, Mallorca or the Canary Islands are the favorite destinations of our students, due to the easy and direct transportation with Sevilla as well as the historical and cultural value of these cities in Spain. Don’t forget to visit Toledo, in Castilla La Mancha, where you will mentally transport yourself to the Middle Age while you are still in the city. San Sebastián, La Concha beach, the north part of the country has a special charm. 

Sevilla’s airport is linked to important countrycapitals such as France, Italy, Ireland, United Kingdom or Germany by low cost airlines. Paris the city of lights, the historical city of Rome, Dublin and its green surroundings, or the power of big cities like London or Berlin, are all notorious as destinations chosen by CIEE Seville students all year round.

The proximity of Lisbon or exotic countries likeMorocco are places most students take the opportunity to visit while in Sevilla, due to both their geographic location and their good climate throughout all of the year.
