    I’ve just found your series of videos, some friends and I had planned a motorcycle trip to Spain and Portugal in 2020, but unfortunately Covid put a stop to that , however we have just booked to return in 2024, I will be showing your informative videos to my travelling companions.
    Fair to say we can’t wait to revisit Spain, we did a trip a few years ago for my wife’s 50th birthday riding from Caen to Pamplona ( where my daughter did a years study), but feel we needed to delve further into central Spain, so looking forward to it.

    Hola Tony !!! 😃
    How I wished your videos existed before I got to visit Spain a few years back… Then I wouldn’t feel sorry now, that I missed out on so many sites. I got to visit Avila, but didn’t get to spend enough time to see the other interesting sites. I did get to visit the church of Sta Teresa de Jesus, and the Plaza del Mercado Chico. Got to try the Yemas though, , which was really good. 👍
    Also got to have some photos taken with the massive walls of the city.
    You are right, an overnight stay in Avila would be a great idea. Hope I get to do that , next time I visit Spain. Thanks Tony, for another wonderful video 👍 .
    Sending you and Cecilia, greetings of a Blessed and Glorious Easter !!! 🙏

    We only spent half of a rainy day in Avila and are hoping to go back this June. Another thing to consider; If my research is correct, you can also get to El Escorial by train from Avila.

    • @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal

    Hola Tony! I really enjoy your channel. I have watched most of them. We will visit Madrid after Christmas this year. We will drive to Segovia and Avila. Will the road to Segovia and Avila be covered by snow? Living in Los Angeles, we don't have experience to drive on snow-covered road. Thanks, Steve

    • @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal
      @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal  Před 5 měsíci

      Hi Steve, we've just had the warmest November on record. The way things go, snow is less likely than ever, but it can definitely happen, so you will have to check the forecast before traveling. To drive on snow your car should be equipped with snow chains or winter tires.

    Hola Tony !! I have started my research for a long awaited trip to my ancestral homeland ( I was born in Santiago de Cuba but my paternal abuelo is from Sabadel and my maternal bisabuelo from Asturias ). I have designed a 12 day itinerary between Madrid and Barcelona. My first question is regarding day trips from Madrid. I will be spending 5 full days in Madrid and dedicating 3 of those days to the capitol city but the other two days are reserved for day trips to : Segovia, Avila and Toledo. So my dilemma is which city should I dedicate a full day and which of the two other cities should I combine in one day ? Also do you recommend any particular tour company ? My second question : is there a particular flamenco venue in Madrid which you would recommend, such as Coral de la Moreria ?
    I discovered your ROAD TRIP site a week ago and am very impressed by all aspects of your production. The Menu del Dia was especially helpful because it gave me an insight how I can plan my days between attractions/museums and the " almuerzo" . If I had more time I would try to spend two days in your hometown of Zaragoza with hopes of seeing ' El Rio Cinca " which bears my family name ( originally de Cinca from my abuelo's escudo de armas ).
    I was also impressed with your command of English grammar and use of colloquialisms. Where did your learn USA or England or both ? Gracias por tu arduo trabajo y esfuerzo !!!

    • @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal
      @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal  Před rokem

      Hola Tony, many thanks for your kind words. I learned my English first in Ireland and then in Scotland. We recommend one full day for Toledo, Ávila and Segovia, we don’t think it’s wise to combine more than one city in the same day. We can’t recommend a tour company, if possible, go on your own, here in the channel you will find the tools needed to plan those trips on your own, your experience will be much better. Corral de la Morería is really good, we intend to record a video on flamenco shows in Madrid, but it will still take a while. Hope you can make it to the river Cinca one day! Un saludo muy cordial (right now, on the road, doing field work for new videos).

      Hello there, you can check Renfe's policy on bicycles here: www.renfe.com/es/en/viajar/informacion-util/luggage/bicicletas-y-patines It is very restrictive and confusing at the same time. There is a regional train you could catch at Chamartín, it is slower than the trains departing from Príncipe Pío. Last train leaves near 10pm.
