Beautiful Barcelona
Barcelona is a truly large and amazing city with numerous intriguing locations to explore. Probably the best way to see as much of it as possible is through the Barcelona city bus tour – which will take you through 45 of the city’s most prominent and interesting areas.
If you go exploring on your own, consider the Barcelona Card for unlimited public transport, and make sure to visit places such as the Placa Catalunya, and try Can Paixano – one of the most revered local dishes.
Majorca
If you’re looking for amazing Oceanside sceneries, quiet beaches, delicious vegetarian meals and a place where everything you might need or want is just a short bus trip away, you’ll simply love Majorca.
A long way out into the Mediterranean Sea, Majorca is definitely worth the effort of the journey. You can take a trip on the legendary Soller railway to see all the major scenic views on the island, relax on one of its numerous tranquil beaches, or enjoy one of the delicious local delicatessens.
Strolling through Alicante
Alicante is one of those unique places that have just about anything you can imagine. From the waterfalls of El Palmeral, to the huge selection of shops, bars and sailboats you can find on San Juan beach, there is truly a plethora of beautiful locations to visit.
You can even explore the old town of El Barrio, or take a charter to see the natural landscapes of Tabarca, a beautiful little island just 8 miles off the shoreline.
A Visit to Malaga
Another remarkable coastal city you can visit is the hometown of the renowned Picasso – Malaga. This city is also packed with places to visit, allowing you to explore the famous Picasso museum, enjoy a stroll through the Puerto Banus marina, or take the metro to get around to some of the city’s fine restaurants for some of the best steak and vodka on the entire Spanish coastline.
