Partying, siestas and sun…my three favorite things about Spain, the third-most visited country in the world. A lot of people ask me where to stay, when to go and what to do in Spain, so here are my top tips to enjoy the best of the bustling capital and this beautiful country…
WHAT TO SEE IN MADRID
- To get your bearings, do a free three-hour walking tour with Sandemans New Europe Madrid. I have a few friends that have been tour guides for this company. Having done the tour myself, I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Madrid
- Walk through El Retiro park and rent a rowboat for cheap (€5 approx) if it is sunny. Have a picnic on the green grass with some vino, aceitunas and queso (wine, olives and cheese)
