On Foot

Best option from the Cathedral area. Casa de Pilatos is a 4-minute walk from the Giralda. Head east along Calle Mateos Gago, then follow signs into Barrio Santa Cruz. It's well signed from the Cathedral.

No map needed if you're starting from the Cathedral or Barrio Santa Cruz.

Line 5 stops on Avenida de Menéndez y Pelayo, 500 metres from the entrance.

TUSSAM single fare: €1.40. Bonobús card (10 trips): €6.90.

Metro

Seville Metro Line 1 has no station in the old quarter. The closest station is Puerta de Jerez (750 m, 10-minute walk north through Barrio Santa Cruz).

If you're coming from Santa Justa station or the Nervión area, the Metro + walk is a practical option.

Taxi / Rideshare

Taxis are widely available in Seville. Tell the driver "Plaza de Pilatos" — all local drivers know it. From Santa Justa station, expect €8–12. From the airport, €22–28.

Uber and Cabify operate in Seville and are sometimes cheaper than taxis during off-peak hours.

There is no reliable taxi rank immediately beside the palace. Hail one on Calle San Esteban or book via app.

Bicycle & Sevici

Seville is one of Europe's most cycle-friendly cities. Sevici (the public bike-share) has a docking station at Calle San Esteban, 100 metres from the palace entrance.

Day pass: €1.33. First 30 minutes of each trip: free. Ideal for a morning that combines the Cathedral, Casa de Pilatos, and the Alameda.

Street parking in the old quarter is residents-only. Do not attempt to drive to the plaza itself — the streets are not navigable by car.
