Travel Guide To Madrid

travel guide to madrid"travel guide to madrid"
travelling to SPAIN in february?

is it too cold to enjoy? should i fly into madrid or barcelona? i'll have 11 days to travel within the country. what's there to do!

do you have a suggestion for an itinerary?

also, do you have any suggestions for websites that are good, comprehensive guides (besides frommers and lonely planet)?

thanks!!!
also, how long is the train ride and how much does it cost if i travel from barcelona to sevilla?


Depends on your definition of cold. I live in Wisconsin and it's freezing in February! When I was in Madrid in February, I only wore a medium to light jacket. It was like our April weather. I once flew into Madrid and had a transfer flight from Barcelona to Madrid when I left. Is that possible for you? I'm not sure how that affects the cost of the tickets since the tickets were arranged for us by our company. Let's Go has a good variety of things to do for younger people (I used it in college). I've never used a Fodor's guide, but their website and message boards are very helpful. Madrid, Barcelona and Sevilla are all great, but it may be too much to travel that distance and tackle all three cities in 11 days. Go to either Barcelona/Madrid or Sevilla/Madrid and find other cities to visit along the way. In the north, smaller towns like Segovia and Salamanca are nice, and the Basque country is supposed to be nice as well. In the south, I love Cordoba and Granada. Cordoba can be a day trip, but you'll need a day to explore the Alhambra alone in Granada. Read up for other interesting places. Good luck!
