Itallica is a 20 min bus ride from Seville. Extensive ruins of a Roman Town.

In Seville itself you have the cathedral including Columbus' tomb , Alcazar and Giralda. Also the Setas aka the mushroom, beautiful views of the city from the top.

Taking one of the open top bus tours is a good way to see a lot of the city.

Seville starts getting very hot from June to September so make sure you have good sunscreen.

My daughter lives there and we tend to visit in March & October when it's a bit cooler

Cadiz old town is easily walkable, just wander, if you are interested you must see the indoor market, the best fish market I have ever seen, there are some towers around if you want to go up to the top, there is the Roman Amphitheatre and the cathedral.

Having just come back from a pleasantly warm 5-day trip to Malaga in April - I’d say good luck with only 2 days each in Cádiz/Seville in June! We saw plenty of walking groups shuffling around Malaga - trying to hear their guide above the din of all the other groups. Cycling tours looked more fun.
As G said: just wander around the back streets & soak up the local atmosphere, away from other tourists if you can: covered markets, little tapas bars, in Cadiz the wrought iron balconies & leafy squares with tiled seats, fried fish lunch at Freiduria Las Flores & the like. If you had longer I’d say take the ferry to Puerto de Santa Maria & explore that too.

Thanks but these are just mini breaks to break up the pressures of work

BIL and SIL did 3 months in Málaga last year and we joined them for 4 days then. Loved it
