Day trip to Carmona from Seville

Carmona, known as ‘the Star of Europe’, is an impressive medieval town that stands out for its important archaeological finds, such as the San Felipe underground passages, its palace houses and the Necropolis. Due to its history and heritage, visiting Carmona has become one of the most popular half-day excursions from Seville. With more than 5,000 years of history, Carmona has a rich monumental heritage and is listed as one of the first archaeological sites in Spain open to the public.

You will depart from Seville and arrive in Carmona in about 40 minutes, where you will begin to discover its most emblematic sites with an expert guide. In its Roman necropolis, which is over 5,000 years old, you can explore such curious treasures as the Elephant’s Tomb and the Roman Mausoleum. Throughout its streets, you will feel the mark left by cultures such as the Carthaginians, Romans, Muslims and Christians, who left an indelible historical legacy. You will pass through the Puerta de Sevilla and the Puerta de Córdoba gates until you reach the Alcázar del Rey Don Pedro, now converted into a Parador hotel, managed by the Carmona Town Council.

You will continue exploring the old town, with its narrow streets typical of an Andalusian village, discovering Mudejar temples and convents, and enjoying panoramic views of the Vega de Carmona from its viewpoints, images that you will always remember.

After exploring every corner of this historic town on foot, you will return to Seville, ending a unique experience in one of the most beautiful towns in Andalusia.
