Very inspiring. Will added to my travel bucket list.
Zaragoza always comes as a pleasant surprise to many visitors, hope you like it too.
Hola Tony.
Mi esposa y yo estamos realmente encantados con tus videos y lo didáctico de tu acercamiento hacia los diferentes aspectos de las ciudades de España y Portugal que nos presentas.
Nosotros fuimos beneficiados con una Visa no lucrativa, estamos decantados por Zaragoza y debemos estar buscando vivienda por allá a mediados de Noviembre, por lo que queremos consultarte acerca de las zonas residenciales más tranquilas pero a la vez con buena conexión de transporte público y otros servicios urbanos.
También quisiéramos tu recomendación en relación a buscar una inmobiliaria que nos represente, o hacer nuestra gestión directamente a través de los motores de búsqueda de inmuebles (Idealista, fotocasa, habitacle, etc...)
Gracias por tu apoyo!
Hola Sergio, aquí somos especialistas en turismo en España y Portugal, y en el canal nos circunscribimos a esa temática sobre la cual tenemos buenos conocimientos. ¡Suerte con vuestra mudanza! Para el que busca ciudad, siempre damos la misma recomendación, reservad un mes para vivir en aquellas que os interesan y poder vivirlas en persona.
Zaragoza is very high on my list. Hopefully some time this spring. Love your videos! Keep them coming.
Zaragoza is one of the underrated destinations in Spain. Hope you will like it!
Tony thank you for mentioning the camping. We had some lovely days and saw great sites in your home town. We will be back to explore more.
So great to hear about your stay in Zaragoza, Steve. All the best!
Your hometown is really stunning, I only visited once and was impressed. A well kept gem.
Thanks again, Will. It is a hidden gem indeed. Most people arrive in Zaragoza with no expectations and are always positively impressed.
Nice city. Would love to visit on my next trip to Spain.
Zaragoza is a lovely city indeed, we hope you can make it to Zaragoza on your next trip!
Buen video!
Muchas gracias, Ángeles.
Heading to Zaragoza next month. One of the sunniest cities in Spain 🇪🇸 ☀️
Great. Quite sunny indeed, although we've just left behind a record-breaking spell of 14 foggy days, not a hint of the sun for two weeks!
Hello. I am visiting your town, Zaragoza, and loving it. It’s such a lovely town. I am staying one of the hotels that you recommended and really like it. Thank you so much for all the great information!! Your channel is so great!!❤
Hello Young, today we are miles away from Zaragoza but are delighted to hear you loved our city. Have a great time! All the best!
Visitar LaSeo y su colección única de tapices.
👍
We loved Zaragoza! We are going back in November to use it as a base to visit nearby villages. (A lot of them accessible by bus/train! So much easier for Australians than driving on the opposite of the road!) We are really enjoying your channel. Very practical and thoughtful advice. Thank you so much. ❤😘
Great to hear that, Rachel. In case you haven't seen it, we have a more up to date video on Zaragoza here: czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html All the best!
We just visited Zaragoza because of your excellent videos! Zaragoza is a wonderful place! Thanks for sharing your hometown with us!
Hi John, delighted to hear you loved Zaragoza. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Ohhh, I will fly to Zaragoza in 2 days ❤
Then don't miss our most recent video on Zaragoza here: czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html
Hola Tony , me and my wife finally made it to Zaragoza last night on the Iryo high speed train from Madrid. This city is amazing it has so many amazing places to see in the city center. Thank you for all your videos 😊
Great to hear that! Have a great time in Zaragoza, Volks.
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal thank you Tony, it was a warm day today , but nice at the same time
Hello!! Im travelling to Zaragoza from Madrid!! Can't wait to see your beautiful city!!.
👏👏👏
Hello, when are u traveling?
Next month, and cannot wait
Hi, thank you for the video. We are coming to Spain for a two-week road trip in August this year. We fly in and out of Madrid but plan on going straight to Zaragoza and starting our tour there. It looks like we could easily spend our first two nights in Spain there before getting the car and hitting the road!
Indeed. And stay tuned, on June 4th we are publishing an updated video on Zaragoza!
Such a beautiful city that I had the privilege to visit last week. Aljafaria translates into Casa Jafar which seems to be a reference to the ruler Abu Jafar Almuqtadir, who used to call it Dar Alsuroor ( which is the Arabic word for happiness and joy).
Love from Arabi Saudita.
Delighted to hear you liked Zaragoza. Thanks a lot for you explanation on the name of the Aljafería. All the best from Zaragoza!
Por fin un vídeo de Zaragoza que no empieza con el Pilar, sigue con el Pilar y acaba con el Pilar 👏👏👏👏
Ya te digo, y eso que la Plaza del Pilar es preciosa.
Pues empieza el vídeo mirando pantalla de ordenador y termina mirándola🤣
La Plaza del Pilar o de las Catedrales tiene más Historia, y sobre todo más monumentos que muchas ciudades más grandes. En esta plaza, la más grande peatonal de Europa, está El Pilar, Catedral y Basílica Menor, dentro de este templo que és el segundo monumento más visitado de España después de La Alhambra con 8.000.000 millones de visitantes, en el Pilar hay dos museos el de las joyas de la Virgen y el de los cientos de mantos que tiene, el Ayuntamiento, La Lonja palacio emblemático de Aragon, La estatua de Goya sus acompañantes y fuente, Museos, el Foro romano, La Catedral del Salvador(una de las iglesis con más valor artístico del Mundo, dentro de La Seo el Museo de tapices flamencos mejor del Mundo, en el exterior de la Seo la obra de arte máxima del Mudejar, en los alrededores de la Seo calles , plazas y palacios históricos. En la otra punta de la plaza esta la monumental fuente de la Hispanidad que dibuja el mapa de América, la Iglesia histórica de San Juan de los Panetes, al Lado el
torreón musulman de la Zuda y las murallas romanas así como la estatua del fundador de la ciudad en el año XIV a. de C., Cesar Augusto y el Mercado Central(otra joya de Zaragoza). Amén detrás del Pilar está el río Ebro el más largo y caudaloso de España con sus puentes sobre todo el de Piedra del siglo XIV. Todo esto en 300 mts. de radio y la pregunta: en tu pueblo o ciudad ¿hay la sexta parte de lo que exíste en la Plaza del Pilar de Zaragoza?.
Hi Tony i hope to be visiting your hometown. After watching your program i be staying for 3 days not the 1. 15 to 18 Aprill 2022. Travelling from Bilbao by motorhome so i need to find a campsite with transport to town. Your so good explaining and show details well done.
Hi Steve, there is a public campsite, see the details here: www.campingzaragoza.com Be aware you will be in Zaragoza during Easter Week, it's high season here, so make sure you book in advance. All the best!
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal thank you for your reply
That was one of the better presentations I have seen of Zaragoza! I love that city (I spent a year there in '92-'93) and this video does it justice.
Many thanks for your kind words, Rick. Zaragoza being my hometown, we tried our best to do justice to it. All the best!
Ooops....i will be at Zaragoza from 1 - 4 Dec.
Hey I used to live there 2 years ago. I miss the bakeries. The food is nothing compared to San Sebastian but the best size city!
Thank you, Jacob, thanks for sharing your experience. In terms of food, San Sebastián (and the Basque Country) play on a different league, miles away from the rest, but here in Zaragoza we don't complain. And yes, the size of the city is perfect! All the best!
Gracias infinitas por este video. Precisamente estamos planificando viajar a España este próximo mes de julio y estaba pensando en hacer un 'Day Trip' a Zaragoza desde Madrid. Estoy buscando la mejor ruta para caminar los lugar de mayor interés y luego regresar en transporte a Madrid. Me encantaría saber más sobre Zaragoza.
Muchas gracias, Gretchen. Lo que tenemos en el canal por ahora sobre Zaragoza es este vídeo, puede que en el futuro hagamos alguno más. Un saludo.
Desde Madrid a Zaragoza, en AVE(tren de alta velocidad, va a 300 km*h) el tiempo no llega a 80 minutos sí va directo y un poco más sí para en Guadalajara o Calatayud. Como la estacion Delicias esta dentro de la ciudad consolidada, hay bus para ír a cualquier lado. Le recomiendo ír a la Plaza del Pilar o de las Catedrales, recorrer la plaza entrar a la Catedral Basílica del Pilar(la iglesia barroca más grande del Mundo, donde entre otras maravillas podra contemplar una cúpula y sus pechinas pintada por Goya, amén de otras muchas maravillas). Después puede asomarse al río Ebro(detrás del Pilar, Puente de Piedra, volver a la plaza la más grande de Europa peatonal, contemplar el Ayuntamiento, La Lonja, la estatua de Goya e ír hacia La Seo, un poco antes de llegar se coje el bus turístico que les va a dar una vuelta completa por Zaragoza, pudiendo bajar para continuar luego por ejemplo en La Aljafería(no se pierda visitarla), que además de haber sído "palacio de la alegria" de los reyes musulmanes, los reyes Católicos mandaron hacerse un palacio encima del árabe que también és explendido. Por la tarde pueden visitar La Seo con un explendor muy superior al Pilar y la zaragoza romana, Foro, teatro, termas, puerto fluvial. Y sí les queda tiempo irse de tapas por los alrededores de la Plaza del Pilar o por el cercano Tubo. Para un día ya está bién.
Great video, I spent 3 years in Zaragoza from 1980 to 83 and it’s great to see all the changes the city has gone through, gracias!
Zaragoza has changed so much since! (but then, so has most of the world). Thanks for your words!
Can you give a list of good restaurants and tapas bar to try in Zaragoza? We will be there for 3 days next month. Thanks
We plan on recording a tapas tour in Zaragoza, in the meantime, focus in the region of El Tubo, where there's a myriad of bars and restaurants.
Will be heading to Zaragoza tomorrow! I will try to see the places you showed us. Your videos give me a lot to look forward to. Do you have a list of your favorite places to eat in your city?
Hello José, we don't have that material yet, although it's on our wish list. Try "La Miguería", affordable traditional food. All the best!
Tony, on your advice I will be traveling to Zaragoza in December and following your guide to Barcelona and Zaragoza. You have a few videos of places to eat in Barcelona but nothing about where to eat in Zaragoza. Please help with a few suggestions on where to eat?
Hi John, on our most recent video on Zaragoza here czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html we mentioned we are working on a video on food in Zaragoza. But it won't be ready before your trip. Unfortunately it won't be ready before your trip.
Great video. Do you know if there is any direct high speed train or bus from Burgos or Valladolid. My general search only seems to indicate that someone has to go back down to Madrid first then to Zaragosa, which makes it too long. Any direct knowledge I would appreciate knowing. Thanks.
Hi there. Unfortunately, there is no quick connection between Burgos or Valladolid. There is a direct train from Valladolid to Zaragoza, but it takes 7 hours to complete the trip! The quickest trip is through Madrid, in spite of the distance you will need to travel. All the best!
Hola! Acabo de ver un vídeo sobre menús del día en Barcelona, y me ha gustado mucho. Y sabiendo que eres un residente de Zaragoza, me llama la atención que no lo hayas hecho de tu propia ciudad, que yo haya visto.
Así que nada, te lo dejo como sugerencia.
Salud!
Está en la lista de deseos futura, pero no es una prioridad por ser Zaragoza un destino minoritario.
Love to hear about your favorite places to eat in Zaragoza. 😊
We pointed out what we need for that video to come about at our most recent video on Zaragoza here: czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html
Hola Tony and Cecilia, I thank you so much for your incredibly helpful videos. I am in Zaragoza until Monday morning. I have a reservation at Laternasca at 14:00 tomorrow, and if you would like to join me, I would love to treat you and Cecilia to lunch. I understand if you are unable, but I also would love to meet you, and and to extend the invitation as a thank you for your efforts on CZcams.
Dear Carol, we do hope you are having a great time in Zaragoza. If you are in need for ideas of what to do tomorrow, let us know. We are so thankful for your invitation for lunch but unfortunately on Sundays we usually have a family lunch, and tomorrow won't be different. We do appreciate the gesture! All the best!
P.S.: you must have seen there is a very interesting cultural event going on, the "Fiestas Goyescas".
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal Yes, I have been enjoying the Goya festivities. Last evening I watched the parade, and it was so nice to see all the families and children having fun. There were so many people in the Square! Enjoy your day and your family time together. And thank you, again, for your videos. I’m hoping to be back next year. It would be lovely to possibly meet you both then. 😊
@@carolcampa5900 let us know in advance whenever you return!
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal Thank you! I will. By the way, I'm sure you already know this, but Laternesca was wonderful. The lamb was delicious!! Enjoy the holiday tomorrow. 😀
@@carolc8250 you have a nice week!
Hi Tony - do you know if there are any kayak rentals on the Rio Ebro near the Basilica?
Not as far as we know.
We're travelling in Nov from Madrid to BCN and Zaragoza looks like a great stopover! but we worry about lugging our big luggage around, and may not stay the night there. Do you know if there's a luggage locker in the Zaragoza-Delicias station or a way to store it nearby?
There is a left-luggage facility at the bus station, in the same building as the railway station. This coming Sunday we're publishing a new video on Zaragoza which we hope will convince you to spend the night in the city.
Hi Tony, thanks for all the videos. I would like to know which part of Zaragoza I should stay in order to see the city efficiently. Town citre,old town,train station?thanks very much
Have a look at this video: czcams.com/video/aK7QuKdRTks/video.html
THank so much for replying my message. I really appreciate. Now comes another question. After Zaragoza, we will go to Madrid. I checked Renfe wensite,there are Avlo direct trains 2hrs getting there, I can book these right ?or is it ok that I buy tickets when we are in Spain?
Hi there, answer to your question here: czcams.com/video/QYvUn-sJxZ4/video.html
Thank very match! Best video from Saragozza! Is biutifull!
Thanks for your words, Светлана!
I'd like to know from Valencia to Zaragoza,which is better,taking the train or bus? It seemo train has to go to Madrid first. If there is direct bus, do I need to book the bus ticket in advance or buying when I arrive Valencia?Which bus company?Thanks so much Tony for your help.
Hello there, there is a direct train but it's always having problems. Don't take it, take the bus, with jimenezmovilidad.es Buy your tickets in advance unless you want to risk finding a full bus. We are not saying that is going to happen but it is a risk.
Hi Tony,
I just watched your video on Zaragoza and like the presentation much. I am visiting Zaragoza from 1-2 Dec 22. Wonder if you can recommend some authentic Zaragoza food/locations? Will be staying around old town and plan to just walk and not use the public transport. Thanks.
Hello there, we haven't recorded a video yet on food in Zaragoza, but the Tubo region (see the video) is the place to go. We quite like Meli-Melo and Bodegas Almau. If you stay in the old town you'll walk everywhere! All the best!
Thanks Tony
Hola Tony and Cecilia,
I will be in Zaragoza from 26 Apri l-1 May, and I'm wondering if you could recommend some cafes / restaurants. I always enjoy fresh, homemade food, so if you can recommend your favorites, I would greatly appreciate it.
I just finished taking notes on your fabulous video so as not to miss the sites in your city.
Thank you very much!
hello, Carol, we haven't got a video on the topic yet. But for a specific local traditional dish, try "La Miguería" in the historic centre.
Thank you, Tony.
I ate at La Mugeria today and had the menu del dia. It was very nice. I liked it so much that I’m going back tomorrow to try the regular menu. Thanks so much for suggesting it.
@@carolcampa5900 👏👏👏 great to hear that, Carol!
Aren’t there any shopping centres near plaza de pilar? We will reach there by cab and plan on walking the city , and than back to Barcelona ,,, also what time is the last train to Barcelona?
The shopping centres are on the outskirts of the city. Check the train timetables for your intended date of travel using the tool we presented here czcams.com/video/MYqz41n5Qn4/video.html
planning July or Aug tho warm? ! From Bacelona if 4n where else to stop? Thank you.
July or August can be very hot in Zaragoza. See day trips from Barcelona here: czcams.com/video/z6XAhNXRQ-w/video.html
Hello there. Thank you for the great video. I will be traveling from Madrid to Zaragoza, Pamplona, and then San Sebastián in October. What’s the best way to Zaragoza from Madrid? Train or bus? I will stay near Atocha in Madrid.
Cheers from Los Angeles.
Hello there, take the high-speed train to Madrid, in one hour and twenty minutes you will be there, versus four hours for the bus. On top of that, the train arrives at Atocha station. All the best.
Thank you so much!! Good night!!
LOVELY VIDEO! I'm going there in 2 weeks. We'll rent a car in Barcelona and go to Valencia and then to Zaragoza and back to Barcelona. How parking like in Zaragoza. The hostal says theres free parking on the street?
Hello, Kaya. You don't mention the location of your hostel, so we can't really say anything about free parking near it. But in the centre of Zaragoza it is difficult/near impossible to find free parking on the street. All the best!
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal Thanks for the answer, the name is Hostal Puente de Piedra :)
Hi Kaja, while not far, the hostal (bear in mind it is a hostal, not a hostel, we have a video on the channel explaining the difference) is not in the centre. There is free on street parking nearby, but you will need to be lucky to find an empty space. We hope it won't be much of an effort to find one. All the best!
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal thank you for the answer, and I checked the video about the differece :)
@@kajaoslak that's great, let us know if there is any other help you need!
hello, thanks for a great video. Any tips for activities with teen kids?
Thank you, Barbara, we have no specific tips. After two decades giving travel advice, we came to the conclusion that no two teens are alike. Some will follow whatever the rest of the family do, others have specific demands. A visit to Parque del Agua, great outdoors, could be fine for teens.
Hi there,
do you have any transport suggestions if travelling by car? Is it easy to find parking lots in the city centre?
What about escooter rentals? any suggestions?
Thank you very much,
Best regards
Hi there, please check our recent video on Zaragoza here: czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html Plenty of underground paid card parks in the centre. There are also Bolt scooters. All the best.
Thanks to your amazing video Saragossa will be on the list of our 3 month roadtrip through Spain and Portugal, thank you! 😊
Excellent, but make sure you watch our updated video on Zaragoza here: czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html
Thanks for the Info :) I am still digging through all of your videos from old to new :D@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal
Looks lovely. What are the locals opinions on the graffiti ?
Gary, we love them, they are part of artistic interventions done in a controlled way in different parts of the city.
Can zaragosa be a day trip from either madrid or barcelona?
If you catch an early high-speed train and return at the very end of the day on another high-speed train, it's a possibility, yes.
We are staying in Zaragoza on July 6. We want to be in Pamplona around 7:00 am on July 7th so we can be there for the running of the bulls. We HAVE A PROBLEM because both trains and buses leave Zaragoza and get to Pamplona around 9:30 A.M. which is too late because the running of the bulls is at 8:00am in the morning of the 7th. Are you familiar with private shuttle buses, inexpensive taxi, or individuals that can take 3 of us to Pamplona at about 5:00 in the morning so we can be in Pamplona by 7:00 am? Do you know of any individual that can take us from our hotel in Zaragoza to Pamplona? Take your time in answering.
You have already given us valuable information on bus/train travel and I have subscribed to your channel. Gracias, Ezequiel P.
Sorry, we're unable to give you any advice for your request other than trying to sleep in Pamplona or near the city the day before.
Hola, I have a couple of questions about visiting Zaragoza. Since the Aljaferia and the Parque del Agua are a little outside of the Casco Viejo, are there easy/free parking options at those two sights? Also, in regards only to the Roman ruins - how would you compare the Roman ruins in Tarragona with those in Zaragoza? Is one of them more essential than the other?
Hi there, do not bring you car to the center of Zaragoza or the Aljafería region. If you have a car, leave it parked elsewhere. Very easy to park at the Parque del Agua, lots of free parking spaces. The Roman ruins in Tarragona are far more spectacular than the ones in Zaragoza.
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal That's good to know, thank you. We will be in Zaragoza on a Monday when the Roman museums are closed, but we will be seeing the Roman sites in Tarragona, so it's good to know that those are the more spectacular ones. Looking forward to both cities!
@@ldr540 you can still see the Roman Theatre in Zaragoza from the outside gate, even if it's closed.
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal That's good to hear, thanks again!
Hi
I am Milan,
My family of 4 including 2 teen daughters planning for trip Zaragoza in May 23 end for 3 nights
Are there any day trips we can plan to make from Zaragoza.
Thanks
Hi Milan, if you rent a car, you could visit Loarre Castle and the Mallos de Riglos to the north or the city of Teruel to the south.
Does the market have tables to eat sir?
Just a handful of tables and high chairs. Do check out our most recent video on Zaragoza here: czcams.com/video/Bcl3fOrQXpI/video.html
How am I going to travel from Madrid to Zaragoza via train?
Very easy, three different train services: AVE, AVLO and Ouigo. Check prices here: prf.hn/l/6b1N4Qa All the best!
Excellent video with names, but no need involve the lady, blocking lots of beautiful sights
Thank you, Gina, we respect your opinion but this is not an institutional channel, it is rather a personal one, so we will always appear on the videos. Far less than what is the norm in travel channels, but we will be there nonetheless. Let's hope we strike the right balance in future videos!
我爱萨拉戈萨💘💘💘
谢谢 Great to hear that! 👏👏👏
Why is there only one person roaming around. Where are all the tourists? I love the video though
