- Ola,
-
- I am planning a trip to Spain (for my honeymoon) and am curious about what
- recommendations people may have regarding several items. First of all, I would
- like impressions from people who have travelled through Spain several times about
- what are the best towns in which to stay/visit (we do want to hit the
- Mediterranean coast for several days unless not recommended). Furthermore, what
- is the better method of travelling, train or rental car? For instance, is it
- possible to take a train to the majority of towns or is the rail network less
- dense than its European neighbors?? Is there a Spanish equivalent to the Eurail
- Pass (i.e., a two week rail pass for Spain)???
-
- We will be travelling from the end of June until the beginning of July. Are
- there specific events during this period which would be of interest?
- Additionally, we will more than likely be flying into Madrid unless airfare can
- be found cheaper for another city. I welcome all input by anyone who has a good
- deal of experience with the country.
-
- One final item, can your please provide your impressions on any or all of the
- following places which I have considered so far;
-
- 1) . Ibiza
- 2) . Majorca
- 3) . Gibraltar area,
- 4) . Pamplona
- 5) . Cartagena
- 6) . Canary Islands
-
- Keep in mind the time of the year, if the area typically swells with the ugly
- American in this period of time note this for me, PLEASE! I appreciate in
- advance the time and information provided...
-
-
- Gracias,
-
