Walk
bus a lot, you may wish to purchase a monthly pass. The bus network is comprised of circular (C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4 buses) and line routes (north, south, east and west). You can catch most city buses in one of four locations: 
difficult to hail a taxi with a libre sign and illuminated green light, indicating that it's available. Most are fairly new and offer enough room for two with plenty of luggage. If you need a van or larger taxi you can generally secure one by calling ahead. Many of the short cab rides cost between 3-6€. From the airport to the center of town or the opposite there is now a flat rate in effect for taxis. The fee is 17€ during the day and 20€ during holidays, Sundays or night (after 10pm). Taxis can be found in the main plazas of the center in designated taxi stands if you can't hail one on the street. The best locations for finding a taxi are:
one. When traveling to Madrid it is often nice to catch the AVE - a great high-speed train that has shaved hours off the journey. Tickets are more expensive than the normal train, but it is well worth it. If you want to save a little money catch the 10pm train as I did a while back. Just make sure you know what you're doing and where you're staying once you get to Madrid at 12:30am. Do note that it can be cheaper to fly to Madrid, especially if you use public transportation to and from each airport. I found a 25 Euro flight one time, which was more than half the price of the AVE. In general the AVE is cheaper, but not always. You can check exact prices and schedules of any train to and from any city at the RENFE schedule page.
Both stations are practically in the center and in most cases you can walk to both of them. If not take a taxi and give the name of the bus station. Plaza de Armas is about 3 blocks from the Triana bridge and Reyes Catolicos. The Prado de San Sebastian station is close to the university and across the street from the Jardines Murillo. The most confusing thing about bus travel from Seville is the choice of the bus stations. There are two possibilities depending on your destination: Prado de San Sebastian or Plaza de Armas. If you are traveling to cities or towns in Andalucia, such as Cádiz, Granada, Málaga or Carmona you need to go to the 
station in Prado de San Sebastian. If you are traveling to Huelva or outside of Andalucia, such as Madrid, Extremadura, or Portugal you need to head to the station in Plaza de Armas. As things change I do recommend you check before heading out. It is often difficult to get an actual person on the telephone at either of the numbers listed below. Many times the lines are busy, or they simply fail to answer. The best thing to do is go to the bus station the day before or head to the tourist office for some help.
