Admission tickets for Torre del Oro cost €3 for adults and €1.50 for children, students, and seniors. Audio guides cost €2. However, children under 6 go free, and the attraction offers free entry on Mondays. This charge is technically a voluntary donation, but the fees support the maintenance of the tower and its museum.

Many Seville tours—including bike or Segway excursions—pass by the exterior of the Torre del Oro, a circular, 12th-century stone military fortress on the banks of the Guadalquivir River. Inside the tower is the 2-floor Naval Museum, which exhibits maps, boat models, and more.

The best months to visit the Torre del Oro are April–June or September–November. These months are usually warm and sunny, but not too hot. Spring and fall are good times to visit Seville for milder weather. However, if you want to avoid crowds, consider visiting during the winter months, when there’s still plenty of sun.

If you plan to see the museum inside Torre del Oro, plan to spend about 30 minutes to an hour. Boat, tuk-tuk, Segway, bike, and walking tours typically last 1–3 hours and pass by the tower—some stop to take photos.

If you’re visiting Seville in summer, head to the Torre del Oro first thing in the morning—it opens at 9:30am on weekdays and 10:30am on weekends and holidays. Otherwise, visit in the late afternoon just before sunset, when the views over the Guadalquivir River and Triana Bridge are especially beautiful.
