Overview

Written by outspoken, authoritative experts, Frommer’s Spain shows travelers how to experience the country the way the locals do. That means eating in the places tourists don’t know about, visiting top attractions at times when the crowds are at their thinnest, and patronizing the bars and clubs Spaniards hold dear. Whether you’re partying the night away in the Balearic Islands, exploring architecture and history in Barcelona or Bilbao, or running with the bulls in Pamplona, this book will make your vacation better. We also include advice the tourist board wouldn’t approve of: which sites to skip, how to avoid the crowds, and how to stretch your travel budget further, whether you’re on a lavish honeymoon or backpacking it.

Inside the guide:

Full-color photos and helpful maps, including a detachable foldout map

Detailed itineraries for planning your trip to suit your schedule and interests (and help you avoid lines and crowds)

Candid reviews of the best restaurants, historic sights, museums, tours, shops, and experiences―and no-punches-pulled info on the ones not worth your time and money

Accurate, up-to-date info on transportation, useful websites, telephone numbers, and more

Compelling cultural information so that you’ll better understand the history, cuisine, and traditions of Spain

Budget-planning help with the lowdown on prices and ways to save money, whether you’re traveling on a shoestring or in the lap of luxury

About the Author

Patricia Harris and David Lyon drove almost every twisting mountain road as they researched four previous Frommer's guidebooks about Spain. Founders of HungryTravelers.com, they have a deep appreciation for the perfect codfish croqueta, an honest plate of patatas bravas, or a heap of garlic shrimp. They write about travel, food, wine, spirits and contemporary art for a range of U.S., Canadian, and British journals. When not on the road, they reside in Cambridge, MA, where their kitchen is well stocked with saffron from Consuegra, smoked paprika from Extremadura, chorizo from Castilla y León, and a Valencian paella pan to bring them all together.

Murray Stewart has written and updated several travel guidebooks in the last decade. Before taking an abrupt career change, he “enjoyed” a career in corporate restructuring. He has visited more than 60 countries, including spells teaching English in Chile and Mexico and consulting in Spain and Bulgaria. A keen walker, he has covered several routes of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. His guidebook to the lesser-known Camino Ignaciano pilgrimage was shortlisted for Best Travel Guidebook of 2022.
