Before we start, a couple of extra tips from us to you:
- Spain is does everything later - breakfast at 11am, lunch at 2pm and dinner not before 9pm!
- Most Spanish people drink their coffee with milk, the infamous "café con leche"
- Uber's are very convenient and affordable
- We recommend to book everything in advance, especially during weekends
- After visiting Madrid, people say "de Madrid al cielo" meaning "from Madrid up to the sky". Why you may ask? Visitors usually love the city so much up to the sky, and also it is a city of rooftops hence closer to the sky!
- People are welcoming and like to dress well!
