Spain Travel Tips
Spaniards are incredibly intimate and like to tell it as it is. Expect to be greeted with a kiss, even by strangers, and it’s not unusual to be interrupted as you speak.
When dining out with friends, always opt for some paella. Arguably the most popular dish in Spain, it’s often cheaper to share by increasing the size of your paella than to order a separate meal.
If you want to see the inside of the Sagrada Familia, be sure to buy your tickets online before you go. Only a certain number of people are allowed inside each day, and tickets sell out days in advance.
Though there’s plenty to see on Spain’s mainland, its many islands are also worth visiting. Check out Ibiza for some incredible nightlife, Lanzarote for unique volcanic landscapes, or Fuerteventura for surfing.
Promptness isn’t exactly a value in Spain. Spaniards tend to be very laid back and arrive late.
Spain has seasonal weather so please do check up on the best time to visit Spain before booking your Spain tour. And if you’re still hunting for more things to do and places to explore in Spain, do check out our Spain Travel Guide for more information.
