So, after much research and discussion, my fiance and I have decided upon an itinerary for our two weeks in Spain. I wanted to just post it here to see if anyone might have suggestions or comments.
- We will arrive in Madrid, rent a car from airport, and head to Segovia to spend the night.
- From Segovia, we are heading to Soria, staying in the parador there for a night.
- From Soria, are are going to Laguardia for 2 nights. Going to spend one day relaxing/spa, and the other day going to one or 2 bodegas.
- From Laguardia, we are going to head up to San Sebastian for 2 nights. Check out the town one day, then do a day trip to another coastal town on second day.
- Leave San Sebastian and head to the hills, gorges and canyons of Alquezar for 2 nights. First day we will probably relax, check out the town, etc. Second day go hiking the las pasarelas del vero.
- Leave Alquezar and head east to Cordona where we will stay another night in a parador.
- Leave Cordona and head to Barcelona where we will spend 5 nights. There is so much we want to see here, as well as wonder aimlessly. Then of course there are day trips to Montserrat, Girona, and Figueres.
All in all it is 14 nights. we really wanted to concentrate on 1 area of Spain instead of trying to tackle it all. We also wanted to balance it out with some cosmopolitan experiences as well as getting a feel for some remote areas. What does anyone think? To ambitious? Not ambitious enough? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks!
