January’s financial slump is upon us, but that shouldn’t stop you from making the most of this month. Here are some affordable ideas to brighten up your January – all with a special flair.

January. Easy to say, hard to endure. By the 6th, we’ve finished our Roscon de Reyes and face the dreaded "post-Christmas financial pinch". Behind us lie festive chaos, endless feasts, and gifts – joy and merriment, yes, but also expenses, lots of expenses.

The first month of the year can weigh on your spirits. It’s a cold, groggy restart to routine.

But fear not. These 31 days deserve warmth, light, and above all, fun. Today we head to Seville, where the weather’s kinder and adventure awaits. Our mission? To share budget-friendly activities perfect for wallets still recovering from Christmas.

1. Paintball battle in Dos Hermanas for €23

What better way to warm up than a paintball match? Just 5 minutes from Seville in Dos Hermanas, this offer is irresistible.

This isn’t standard paintball – the battlefield is themed around World War II for pure realism. You’ll get full camouflage gear, safety equipment (mask, vest, gloves), and a marker gun with 100 paintballs.

Choose morning or afternoon sessions with unlimited playtime until you’re out of ammo.

2. Horseback ride through Doñana’s landscapes for €15

Fancy exploring one of Spain’s most beautiful Natural Parks? This horseback trail starts in Aznalcázar, winding through pine forests and near El Rocío.

A one-hour ride perfect for unwinding in nature, reaching spots inaccessible by vehicle. Beginners welcome – you’ll get a basic riding lesson from expert instructors. Minimum age: 8 years.

3. Karting session in Alcalá del Río for €18

Petrolhead? This group activity delivers adrenaline: a karting race at Alcalá del Río Circuit.

Drive 270cc Honda karts hitting 70km/h with hydraulic brakes for pro-level cornering. Your lap times get recorded so you can challenge yourself.

4. Guadalquivir River cruise for €8

Discover Seville uniquely – whether you’re a tourist or local – by sailing its iconic Guadalquivir River.

A one-hour nautical tour departing from Torre del Oro’s dock, passing landmarks like Triana Quarter and La Maestranza Bullring. Kids under 14 go FREE with adults.

5. Segway tour of Seville for €25

After exploring by river, hit the streets effortlessly on a segway. Glide past Seville’s Cathedral, Jewish Quarter, Alcázar, and Plaza de España in 1.25 hours.
