Start with these decisions
Choose a place to stay, work out the route from Seville Airport (SVQ), and list the sights you actually want to see. Santa Cruz is a practical base for keeping daily transfers short.
When to go
The comfortable windows are Mar-May, Oct-Nov. Look up local events, hotel prices, and any timed-entry requirements before you commit to dates.
Budget planning
Plan for about EUR 90-200/day at a mid-range level, flights excluded. The final number depends on your hotel, how you get around, and how many paid attractions you fit into a day.
Compare stay areas
Look at Santa Cruz, Triana, Alameda, Los Remedios. Test each against your airport route, the sights on your list, your evening plans, and the hotel price.
