You′ll never fall into the tourist traps when you travel with Frommer′s. It′s like having a friend show you around, taking you to the places locals like best. Our expert authors have already gone everywhere you might go –– they′ve done the legwork for you, and they′re not afraid to tell it like it is, saving you time and money.

Completely updated every year (unlike most of the competition), Frommer′s Spain features gorgeous color photos of the castles, cathedrals, beaches, and gorgeous landscapes that await you. We′ll take you to Madrid, Barcelona, Seville, and the countryside, as well as the most sizzling beach resorts along the Costa del Sol and the islands of Majorca, Minorca, and Ibiza.

With Frommer′s in hand, you won′t miss any of the highlights and hidden pleasures of this vast and diverse country. It′s all here: artistic treasures, thrilling modernist architecture, tapas bars, historic paradors, flamenco, late–night dance clubs, scenic drives, and much, much more.

Inside you′ll find accommodations to suit every taste and budget, plus the best regional dining, a complete shopper′s guide, a handy glossary of Spanish phrases, and a host of detailed, accurate maps. You′ll even get a color fold–out map, and an online directory that makes trip–planning a snap!

Other helpful guides for your trip include Frommer′s Barcelona, Madrid & Seville.
