[Amanda up North · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pretty fabulous.

[Laurie Byro · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pretty accurate, they did miss some sites of interest. One example: Valencia: The Museu Fallero de València (Fallas Museum) in Valencia, Spain displays papier-mâché figures called ninots that are part of the city's annual Fallas festiva. Which was fascinating. Or this one: Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art. See the saddlery, staterooms, carriage museum, and gardens, and enjoy a guided tour.
But mostly it's for hotels/restaurants etc, so more for spending a few weeks in Spain and not port calls etc. Enjoyed reading about these places.

Great tips for fun times in Espana ... we used it for Madrid, Granada and Seville! :)

I found Frommer's Spain much for useful for trip planning. Fodor's did not enough itinerary suggestions or breakdowns of things to do (in terms of importance).
