A Great Travel Guide for Spain

This guide book is complete...no need to load up on other books. Easy to read and is very comprehensive.

arriba - rick steves' spain book ROCKS like Gibraltar!

i'm thrilled with the purchase of our first rick steves travel book. his website and tv shows are VERY informative and practical and this 2008 book on Spain does not disappoint. it's not too clunky to take with us on our travels - yet, for day trips, we're photocopying a few "walking tour" pages so we don't have to take the book with us when we're travelling lighter. ... while he doesn't highlight EVERY inch of spain, he surely hits all the highlights! NO complaints and we look forward to experiencing more of the world through his expertise!

Can't go wrong with Rick Steve

Rick Steve's Spain was the second travel book I purchased; I had gotten Rick Steve's London for a previous trip. Rick covers everything, and it's easy to read (not dry like other travel books). He covers the history on down to finding local restaurants with the best ambience and food. I plan on purchasing his books for future international travel.

great tour book

Excellent advice on accommodations and points of interests. Good info on how to get to certain places and nice tips on how to get around with public transportation. Don't leave home with out it!

I <3 Rick Steves

I love Rick Steves' books. He makes planning a trip on your own entirely possible and gives all the important information you'll ever need. He has fun insights and finds the places not every tourist goes to. The best part is that he helps you orient yourself and get around, which is tough if you're on your own in a new place. The walking tours are great, and he makes it easy to do things your own way and save money in the process.
