Seville to Brussels

Seems to be difficult to go from Seville to Brussels by train efficiently. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks. TC

Are you wanting to connect Seville and Brussels with a direct journey? Is stopping anywhere for a night possible with your itinerary? Is a relatively quick, relatively inexpensive flight a possibility?

Cyn, Prefer not to fly if possible. Stopping overnight somewhere along the way is not out of the question. Any ideas? TC

By train, the route with fewest connections makes those changes at Barcelona and Paris, each very worthwhile destinations. An alternate route changes at Madrid, Hendaye (border town near St. Sebastian) and Paris.

Rick’s Train Travel Time & cost Map gives you an overview of faster trains at regular, 2nd-class fares. Advance-purchase discounts are also available, or a rail pass could cover 5 or more long train rides.
