Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
Each passenger is allowed one large bag (29" x 21" x 11" / 74 x 53 x 28 cm) and one small bag (22" x 14" x 9" / 56 x 36 x 23 cm). Luxury sedans can only accommodate 2 large bags. We always send the vehicle that is the best fit for you and your luggage, so make sure to select the actual amount of luggage you are traveling with when booking. If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Reaching one of Europe’s oldest continuously inhabited cities from the heart of Andalusia is a journey through endless rows of olive trees, vineyards, and rolling plains; a car trip from Seville to Cadiz is surely a delight. Traveling this 78-mile (125 km) long route with Daytrip will pass like a short, warm breeze, so enriching it with several stops along the way might just be the best idea to integrate into your trip.
Since the drive will only last around 1.5 hours, you’ll have plenty of time to visit the white-washed village built on the face of a steep ridge, Arcos de la Frontera, the magnificent New Bridge built in the middle of a 390-feet-deep (119 m) chasm in Ronda, and sip some delicious wine in Jerez de la Frontera.
About Cadiz
It’s a blessing that the distance from Seville to Cadiz is so short since it makes this lovely city easily accessible for curious travelers wanting to explore more of Andalusia. Cadiz primarily attracts attention by being a captivating port city located on a narrow slice of land surrounded by the clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Simply put, a unique geography jutting out into the Bay of Cadiz makes this place one-of-a-kind!
The 18th-century walls and watchtowers are the stars of Cadiz, especially Torre Tavira which was used for spotting ships. Another one is Cadiz Cathedral, standing as a golden mix of baroque and neoclassical styles, glimmering under the sun. Besides the historical setting of Cadiz, the city’s warm and humorous inhabitants, known as Gaditanos, also enjoy a marvelous seafood-based cuisine, always accompanied by the region’s famous sherry wine.
From Seville to Cadiz: travel tips
Your trip from Seville to Cadiz can be picture-perfect by traveling with Daytrip and considering the tips below!
Keep the weather in mind
The climate in both Seville and Cadiz is typically Mediterranean. Summers are hot and dry, while winters are mild but can be windy, especially in Cadiz due to its coastal location. Check the forecast and plan accordingly; light layers are perfect for fluctuating temperatures.
Pack your essentials
Since both cities are washed with sunshine, pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself against the sun. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as you'll likely do a lot of walking on the streets in Cadiz and on your way there as well.
Make stops for local cuisine
Make a point to stop at one of the local roadside eateries. The sherry and tapas of Andalusia are famous delights, along with jamón ibérico (Iberian ham) and local cheeses. The restaurant Casa Moral can be a great place to stop on your way to Cadiz.

Once the distance from Seville to Cadiz is behind you and you are finally facing the ancient city you’ve been waiting to meet, the only thing left to do is enjoy this port city to the fullest! Here are a few things you can add to your long list of things to do.
Wander around Barrio del Populo
The Barrio del Populo is Cadiz's oldest quarter. This maze of narrow streets is filled with breezes from the past it preserves. Some of the most outstanding buildings mark this district, such as the Cathedral of Cadiz and the Old Town Hall. Just a quick trip here, and you’ll step back in time; the ancient city gates and the remnants of the medieval walls will make you feel like you are in a historical movie.
Shop at Mercado Central de Abastos
The heart of the city beats with the lively vibes of Mercado Central de Abastos, not only the center of local life in Cadiz but also the oldest and busiest market in the city. If you’d love to observe how the inhabitants of Cadiz live day to day, this is the place for you. Visit in the morning to capture the market at its most dynamic, grab some fresh fruits and seafood, chicharrones, and tortillitas de camarones.
Be enchanted by the Roman Theatre
The Roman Theatre of Cadiz was discovered accidentally in 1980 and still stands to this day as a remarkable relic of the city’s ancient past. It is one of the oldest Roman theaters in Spain and is a window into Cadiz’s long history, dating back to the 1st century BC. The excavated parts include the large and round stairs that rise against the white walls of a traditional Andalusian building.
When is the best time to visit Cadiz
The hottest months to visit Cadiz are July and August due to high temperatures (around 83°F/28°C) and uncomfortable Levante winds. On the contrary, spring and autumn are ideal for planning a visit from Seville to Cadiz. There are fewer tourists and lower costs, and the city is alive with cultural events like the Alcances Film Festival and the International Puppet Festival.
The peak tourist season in Cadiz runs from the beginning of July to the end of August, which coincides with summer vacations. During this period, tourism spikes, hotels are crowded, and prices fly up. Hotel rates exceed $108.50 (€100) per night, making Cadiz the most expensive province in Andalusia. The coastal areas, including popular spots like La Caleta Beach, become highly congested.

“Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.”
“We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.”
“Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.”
“Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.”
