Preparing your trip to Andalusia: advices & hints - things to do and to obey

Roman Brigde. Guadalquivir river. Córdoba. Andalusia 1. Andalusia has a very favorable climate that is considered to be the warmest in Europe. Fans of hiking excursions aren’t recommended to have a trip in summer, as it is always very sultry.
2. It is very convenient to travel Andalusia by trains; high-speed AVE train cruises between major cities and towns. Small towns and villages are connected with regular RENFE trains. During a trip, travelers would have a great opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the region.
3. The main form of public transport in Andalusia is bus; the cost of one trip is about 1 euro. Those who expect to use public transport actively are recommended to buy the special Bonobús card; it lasts for 10 trips and allows you to save considerably. You can buy the card at any tourist office.
4. Along historic districts you have to travel on foot or by bicycle that also remains a common mode of transport. Ancient streets are very narrow, so it would be quite problematic to go there by car.
5. Tourists who expect to explore the area by car have to consider that local drivers don’t differ with exemplary compliance with traffic regulations. Leaving the car at the parking lot, you have to prepare for the fact that afterwards it may appear slightly damaged. Cars are always parked very close to each other both on parking lots and on the road. Copyright www.orangesmile.com
6. All major cities have tourist offices that can be found at the train station, close to important landmarks or central areas. Here, visitors can get all the information they need, buy tickets for the event of interest and take a map of the city with the description of sights.
7. Tourists who expect to have a rich excursion program would find profitable to buy a welcome card; it can be found in almost all cities of Andalusia. It is sold in tourist centers and some hotels.
There are more than 4,000 hotels of different kinds in Andalusia. There are many original hospitality establishments among them, which are known far beyond the country. Those include grand … Open
8. Fans of water sports have to choose the right beach very carefully. The fact is that even in the height of summer water at some parts of the coast can be quite cold; the temperature is constantly changing and it is virtually impossible to guess what it will be tomorrow.
