What do see besides Seville ?
IŽd like to visit some small cities/villages around Seville.
What do you suggest? Is it feasable to to Seville -> Jerez de La Frontera -> Ronda -> Seville in half a day ? Thanks Claduia |
Sevilla-Jerez-Ronda is not only 'not feasable;' it's impossible! You might be able to do Sevilla-Arcos de la frontera-Jerez-Sevilla in a full day.
You could catch an early (07:00) train or bus to Jerez or el Puerto de Santa Maria, or even Cadiz and be back in Sevilla for your midday meal |
Sorry, I forgot to tell IŽll have a car.

Cordoba is a good day trip and a great place to spend some time. Check out guidebooks and websites such as okspain, spain-alive, etc.
|
Agree on Cordoba as a day trip. THe Mezquita is amazing, and it's a easy trip by car or train.
|
Even with a car you will not be able to do that round trip in half a day. Maybe on a long, full day but without getting out of the car for visiting any of the wonderful places you want to go. I LOVED Ronda. Cordoba is beautiful and worth a trip!

I really prefer visit small villages with good views. And what about go just to Ronda and come back. No Jerez de La Frontera. Is it Ok for a half trip ?

Hip hip Jerez for Sherry - the town is so so, nice enough but the Sherry tours and the Horse Show is the reason for going. Several fancy sherry houses offer tours ('sherry' is a British corruption of the word Xeres - the town's former name; Brit merchants, seeking an alternative to French wines, introduced sherry to Britain in the early 1600s and it was a smashing success; Jerez as it was near the sea allowed for aramdas of the drink to be cheaply shipped to England. The Andalucian horse show at the Royal Riding School is similar to the Viennese Riding School as you see the horses go thru their paces. Ronda is a gorgeous captivating town featuring a gorge bisecting its old and new parts - also highly recommendable. En route to Rhona you pass from Seville you pass thru the so-called perched white villages like Arcos de la Frontera - though these look neat and make great lunch stops there's little to do in most of them but nice to pass by and wander around a bit. think you need a day for either Jerez or Ronda to enjoy it.

I donŽt have time to visit so interesting places. IŽll be comming from Algarve to Seville. IŽll spend two nights in Seville. I plan to leave a whole day to visit Seville and the other to visit some other cities in Andaluzia. Jerez seems wonderfull as well ... IŽm so confused ...
I think I will chose three small cities as below. If I leave Sevilha early I can be back before darkness Sevilha -> Arcos de La Frontera 95 KM 1 hour and 30 min Arcos de La Frontera -> Zahara de La Sierra 57 KM 55 minutes Zahara de La Sierra -> Setenil 31 KM 39 minutes Setenil->Sevilha 116KM 2 hours TOTAL = 299 5 hours |
