Written by outspoken, authoritative experts, Frommer’s Spain shows travelers how to experience the country the way the locals do. That means eating in the places tourists don’t know about, visiting top attractions at times when the crowds are at their thinnest, and patronizing the bars and clubs Spaniards hold dear. Whether you’re partying the night away in the Balearic Islands, exploring architecture and history in Barcelona or Bilbao, or running with the bulls in Pamplona, this book will make your vacation better. We also include advice the tourist board wouldn’t approve of: which sites to skip, how to avoid the crowds, and how to stretch your travel budget further, whether you’re on a lavish honeymoon or backpacking it.

Inside the guide:

Full-color photos and helpful maps, including a detachable foldout map

Detailed itineraries for planning your trip to suit your schedule and interests (and help you avoid lines and crowds)

Candid reviews of the best restaurants, historic sights, museums, tours, shops, and experiences―and no-punches-pulled info on the ones not worth your time and money

Accurate, up-to-date info on transportation, useful websites, telephone numbers, and more

Compelling cultural information so that you’ll better understand the history, cuisine, and traditions of Spain

Budget-planning help with the lowdown on prices and ways to save money, whether you’re traveling on a shoestring or in the lap of luxury

Patricia Harris and David Lyon drove almost every twisting mountain road as they researched four previous Frommer's guidebooks about Spain. Founders of HungryTravelers.com, they have a deep appreciation for the perfect codfish croqueta, an honest plate of patatas bravas, or a heap of garlic shrimp. They write about travel, food, wine, spirits and contemporary art for a range of U.S., Canadian, and British journals. When not on the road, they reside in Cambridge, MA, where their kitchen is well stocked with saffron from Consuegra, smoked paprika from Extremadura, chorizo from Castilla y León, and a Valencian paella pan to bring them all together.

Trained in Florence, at NYU’s Institute of Fine Arts, and at the Harvard University Art Museums in art history and art conservation, Will Shank has preserved priceless paintings (Frida Kahlo in Mexico, Salvador Dalí in Madrid) in some of the world’s finest museums. In 2000 he decided that working 9-to-5 was not for him, and since leaving his day job at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, he has been spotted climbing scaffolding in places like Pisa, Paris and Amsterdam, where he has restored aging murals of the American pop artist Keith Haring. In spite of his passion for high culture, he is consistently unable to convince his teenage daughter Stassa to set foot into an art museum. Will and his husband, artist U.B. Morgan, who emigrated to Spain from the Bay Area in 2006, own both a historic home in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter and a terraced vineyard in the cava country of Catalunya, where their rural activities are dictated by the harvests of the grapes, the olives and a large field of lavender. In the past few decades Will has shared his deep knowledge of art in publications like London’s The Art Newspaper and various travel guides. He has written about LGBT issues for The Advocate and Towleroad, and about preservation topics for San Francisco Magazine and Preservation. Formerly a film critic for the Bay Area Reporter and frequently an art critic for Barcelona’s English language Metropolitan. Will finds that he enjoys writing about food and wine as much as he does about culture. He is co-author, with Jim van Buskirk, of Celluloid San Francisco, an armchair travel guide to movie locations in the Bay Area.
