The country of Spain is a beautiful place to travel to and
RENTALS IN SPAIN are such an idealistic way to stay that it will not really matter where you are. With so many sights to see you will need at least ten days to experience Spain and its countryside. Tourists are treated like kings all over Spain. The cities of Madrid and Barcelona are the most exciting cities with so much to do. The Running of the Bulls in Pamplona is one of the most interesting sights to see in the world.
Spain's official currency is the Euro (EUR). One Euro is divided into 100 cents. Money can be exchanged at bureaux de change and major hotels but banks give the best rates. All major credit cards and travellers cheques are widely accepted at most hotels, restaurants, and shops. ATMs are widespread and are generally the cheapest and most convenient method of obtaining money.
Sometimes I'm asked what Spanish sites are not to be missed in a visit to Spain, to which I normally respond: the Alhambra in Granada and the Mezquita in Cordoba. The quirky thing is though some of the Spanish places I have the fondest memories of are not on my "must see list: things like my visit to the cave home in Guadix, the walled city of Laguardia, the Roman ruins in Merida and the Palace of Lebrija in Seville.
For an individual who has weak Spanish speaking abilities - or perhaps even for someone fluent in Spanish - entering the Madrid and Barcelona train stations can be disorienting. People rushing here and there, regional signs, other signs for EuroMed, AVI, Cercanias and (non-staffed) information booths all compete for your attention. For travelling out of the Madrid and Barcelona train stations, I recommend either arriving at the station early or visiting the station the day before your date of travel. By doing a quick walk around, you can locate the manned information booths, the Regionales (Regional Trains), Cercanias (local commuter trains), and Largo Recorrido (long distance trains) ticket windows. At this time, pick up train schedules for potential destinations and determine which ticket window sells train tickets to your particular destination. Putting together one's own travel group is perhaps one of the most overlooked options for bus travel.
Travelling with your friends or family can be a much different experience than travelling with a group of strangers. Family reunions as part of a tour not only allow the sharing of old memories but the formation of new shared experiences. Clubs such as photography clubs, sports clubs or trade associations can plan special excursions to address their areas of focus.
When putting together your own tour for
RENTALS IN SPAIN you choose the area most suited to your needs. You can also customize it to your preferences. Maybe you just want a driver to take your group from city to city or maybe you will want a guide to inform you about all the sights? Designed properly, planning your own tour can provide you with many of the benefits of independent travel while sharing your travel with others.
