I think this traveler's helpline is the best! I have used it for my past trips to Europe.
I am planning to go to Europe on Sept 3rd through Sept. 26th of this year. I will be going to Italy,(which I have been to many times) to Austria which I visited last year and loved except that it was during World Soccer and I missed out on quite a few sites. I would like to add a new country this year and am thinking of either Spain or France for a week. I am leaning towards Spain as I want to have warm and sunny weather and visit the coast there.
I am considering Spain for the first week of my trip. I will be traveling alone and won't have a car. I am used to trains in my travel but don't know how to set up a trip to Spain. Your help will be most appreciated. I would arrive in Spain on Sept 5th and leave to Italy for Sept. 12th.

Hi Virginia
My wife and I travelled to Spain last April and spent an amazing two weeks there. The first week was spent in Madrid (4 nights) with day trips to Toledo and El Escorial, a day wandering and a day spent at the Prado and Royal Palace. Two nights in Granada to visit the Alhambra, then to Tarifa for two nights (day trip to Morocco), three nights in Ronda then two nights in Seville. Your itinerary depends on where you land and leave from. We really enjoyed Seville and the coast around Tarifa as the weather was sunny and hot.
