Getting from Seville to Lisbon
Thanks to the easy access between the two countries, combining Spain and Portugal in one trip is a popular option amongst travelers. Lisbon and Seville are on many travelers’ to-do-lists and fortunately, their close proximity make them easy to hop from one city to the next. For those with a tight schedule who want to add Portugal to your Spain trip, traveling directly from Seville to Lisbon would be the best option.
If the vacation is planned ahead, flying is the cheapest way to get between Seville and Lisbon but if the trip is a last-minute decision, you might want to choose the bus or rent a car.
Otherwise, if you’ve got time to spare, traveling slowly exploring lesser-known towns and cities along the way is an enjoyable way to experience both countries. Besides traveling direct from Seville to Lisbon, there are many other ways to get from Spain to Portugal.
