Spain
Spain is one of the most popular countries in the world for tourists, and the experiences you can have while on vacation here can be just as varied as you are. The best way to experience Spanish life today is to visit one of its largest cities, such as Madrid, the country`s capital; Barcelona, its second city; and provincial capitals such as Seville and Valencia. Andalucia, the epicenter of Moorish rule in Spain, is known for its beautiful landmarks such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Alhambra. The north of the country features such varying experiences as Catholic pilgrimages in Galicia, skiing in the Pyrenees, and immersing yourself in the culture of the gorgeous Basque Country.

Among its avenues and parks are hidden sculptures by artists of the stature of Henry Moore and its old town treasures historic buildings, such as the Church of the Conception or the Palacio de Carta. A gastronomic stop on Calle de La Noria is essential. Don't forget to enjoy the golden sands and exquisite Mediterranean waters of Las Teresitas, the most emblematic beach in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

Puerto de la Cruz (Tenerife)
The first tourists to reach Tenerife came to Puerto de la Cruz, and it has still not lost its intrinsic fishing village feel despite the hundreds of thousands of visitors that come here every year. Its fishing dock remains just as it used to be, welcoming the small fishing boats early in the morning with their fresh catches. The pleasure of sitting peacefully in Plaza del Charco is sublime. And an ice cream in one of the many parlours around it is a truly refreshing treat. And you can also experience the privilege of watching the waves breaking on the shore in Costa de San Telmo, with the spectacular lagoons of Lago Martiánez in view. The whole scene creates a fabulous picture postcard. Visit The Loro Park, Lago Martiánez, Playa Jardín, Playa de Martiánez, Botanical Garden, Sitio Litre Garden, Plaza del Chaco, Ermita San Telmo (Puerto de la Cruz), Parque Taoro and so much more!

Santiago del Teide (Tenerife)
Santiago del Teide is a municipality in south-west Tenerife that ranges from the coast of Puerto Santiago to the pine forests of Mount Teide, with a difference in altitude of 1,000 m (3,280 ft). The weather here is stable all year round, which adds to the beauty of its landscapes and the pleasant temperature of the water, making Santiago del Teide a great place to spend time in the countryside and by the sea. Up in the higher parts of the municipality, the scenery reveals a contrast between volcanic landscapes, vineyards, almond and fig trees. The Chinyero volcano, in the Special Nature Reserve of El Chinyero, was responsible for the Island's latest eruption, which took place in 1909.
