Which one for whom?

Why Seville?

The courtyard is cool, and the streets are for walking until noon. Let the evening be late and short.

In the heat, Seville will not rush you. Rush anyway, and it wears you out. A monument in the morning, a courtyard at noon, the river in the evening. Break that order and the group goes quiet.

Why Venice?

The Rialto fills by noon. Start early, and you still see the canal as a street.

You can see Venice in a day. To live it, give it two. Win the first morning with an early hour, not with a map. Getting lost after lunch is allowed. Do not pin dinner to a single tourist menu.
