Seville Hop on Hop Off Bus Overview
The main hop on hop off bus company in Seville is ‘City Sightseeing‘, and they are easy to spot with their large red buses that you’ll see constantly around the city centre.
It’s a brand used worldwide, and you can find them operating in the majority of popular tourist destinations.
There is another company operating hop on hop off buses in Seville, Sevirama, and these buses are green in colour but we recommend you purchase to the red ‘City Sightseeing’ company. Having been on both, the red bus has more to offer when it comes to locations and ‘extras’.
The total journey time for the red hop on hop off bus in Seville (for a complete loop) is 75 minutes, providing you didn’t get off.
The hop-on hop-off bus service in Seville operates every day and passes by all stops every 20 minutes from 10am to 9pm, making it a super convenient option for sightseeing in Seville.
Onboard the buses you’ll also be provided with a headset that you can plug in and get access to an audio guide that updates and provides commentary when you enter certain areas of Seville.
Tickets also come with a small map and location guide, letting you know where the main attractions can be accessed from, as well as offering you discounts in Seville.

How does the Hop on Hop off Bus Work?
The buses loop around the city of Seville in the same route multiple times per day. There are multiple buses, so you’ll never need to wait more than 20 minutes for one (they provide timings as well, so it’s very easy to plan your day)
You can get off at any stop that interests you, spend as much time as you want there, and then catch the next bus to continue your tour. It’s like having a taxi service that comes with a guided tour, only way cheaper.
On your first entry to the bus you’ll be given a headset which you’ll keep hold of for the day to access the audio guide.
Every time you enter the bus you’ll scan your ticket, and provided your ticket is still valid (they expire after 24 or 48 hours) you’ll be allowed on board.
Benefits of the Seville Hop On Hop Off Bus
Using a hop on hop off bus in Seville is a convenient and flexible way to see the city, especially if you’re short on time or you’re looking for an overview of the city
The buses cover most of the main sights, including stopping minutes from the Seville Cathedral, Royal Alcazar and the Plaza de Espana. It also travels through some of the iconic neighbourhoods (such as Barrio Santa Cruz and Triana) in Seville, offering a feel for the culture and vibe of the city.
The buses will save you on public transport fees, and are a great alternative if you’re planning on catching taxis, the bus, or the tram to get to certain areas of Seville.
I will say that a lot of the major attractions in Seville are pretty close together, so you may want to check a map first and make sure that a hop on hop off bus is the best value option.
I do enjoy walking when exploring a city, but for some people this isn’t always an option (especially in the intense heat of the summer).
Most of the hotels in Seville are positioned very close to the stops for the bus, so it can be really efficient if you plan it correctly, and almost act as free transport back after a busy day sight-seeing!
