My wife and I are planning a last minute trip. Any comments or suggestions (best area of each city to stay, number of nights, sequence, etc) would be welcomed. Thanks
Malaga 4 nights:
We arrive in the evening. We plan to do a day trip to Ronda and another day trip to the Caminito del Rey. Renting a car for 2 days looks affordable and I would enjoy driving. Is it easy to find parking at these two sites or would it better just to book bus tours? The rest of the time will be spent enjoying Malaga. I already found a place to rent a tandem bike to explore the beaches, etc.
Granada 3 nights:
The basic €22 Alhambra tickets are already sold out for our days 2 and 3. I don't want to rush from Malaga for a day 1 visit. For our 3 days, I can still buy the €30 "gold" tickets which include a few more attractions. Is it worth it to pay for a skip-the-line guided tour? I can't understand why the Alhambra guided tour prices vary from USD$50 to USD$120 for the same day depending upon the time of admission. This attraction is the key to our whole trip. If I cannot get the right tickets, we will cancel and go somewhere else, maybe South America. LOL.
Cordoba 2 nights:
The Mezquita tickets for October do not appear to be on sale yet, or am I missing something?
Seville 5 nights:
There are lots of Real Alcazar tickets for our dates. And the Cathedral tickets for our dates do not appear to be on sale yet, or am I missing something again? We fly home from Seville.
The above listed attractions are our only must-sees. If you have any suggestions of any other attractions which should be booked, let me know. However, I am not trying to fill our itinerary. I never try to see or do everything; there is never enough time. We are happy to jut wander. We will just enjoy what we can (especially the cities, people, food, drink and hopefully good weather) and not worry about what we cannot.
Thanks again.
