Question 1

When to Visit Spain?

Accepted Answer

Spain can be brutally hot, crowded, and expensive during the mid-summer months. So, the best time to visit Spain is from April to May when the tourist season has not yet peaked. It offers good weather, fewer crowds, cheaper prices compared to June - July, and, best of all, it coincides with some cool festivals you can attend, such as Madrid's Bullfight (March - June) and Seville's April Fest (often held in May. Be sure to check the schedule for the year you plan to visit Spain).

Question 2

How to Get to Spain?

Accepted Answer

First, you will have to get to Spain. There are many airlines that fly from the US directly to Spain, such as American, Delta, Iberia, or Air Europa. If you are from Asia, Emirates, Qatar, or KLM are great options too.

To find the cheapest flight to Spain, make sure to browse through Skyscanner or Expedia so you can get the cheapest flight from your home country to Spain.

Question 3

How to Get Around Spain?

Accepted Answer

Buses are easy and cheap to travel in around Spain. ALSA, Flixbus, or if you are looking for a one-stop shop for finding buses, check out Omio.com to easily find and book a bus ticket online for your trip in Spain.

For big cities like Madrid and Barcelona, the metro system is really well-connected, although be aware that there are a lot of pickpockets around crowded stations in Madrid and Barcelona, so be sure to watch your belongings when getting on/off the train. The train should cost around 2 - 3 EUR per trip.

For Seville, you can walk to all the tourist attractions in the city, no problem.

Same goes for Granada, but if you want to go hiking, you can also rely on the local bus system which is well-connected and easily accessible. Be sure to ask your hostel/hotel for information on which bus number to take to go somewhere. Once you know the bus number, you can check the bus schedule online here.
