Budget Tips

-Fly to Madrid for a cheaper flight

-Walk! Utilize public buses and the Tram if desired but I found it not necessary, as the city is very walkable

-Research Seville tourist passes (sometimes called tourist cards) which combine entrance to multiple main attractions for a discount

-Inquire about 'Youth' pricing for those 25 or under for a discount (sometimes an active student ID is also required)
