The city's most iconic symbol, La Giralda, is a must-visit for families to take in its stunning architecture and panoramic views. Keep the history theme going with visits to Seville's beautiful cathedrals and palaces, where kids and adults alike can learn about the city's rich past.
An unforgettable Flamenco performance at Tablao Flamenco is an excellent way to immerse yourselves in the city's vibrant culture. Make sure to reserve seats in advance to secure a spot at this family-friendly venue located close to the Cathedral of Seville and the foot of La Giralda.

When to visit
The best time to visit Seville with your family is in February or November when the weather is pleasant, and the city is less crowded. The high season, which runs from March to June and September to October, offers warm weather and numerous local festivals, but expect higher prices and larger crowds.
Seville's Semana Santa and Feria de Abril festivals in late March or April are particularly popular, attracting many visitors. It is advisable to avoid the hot summer months of July and August as temperatures can soar. Whenever you choose to visit, remember to plan your family holiday during school breaks to avoid any inconvenience or penalties.
