Start in Madrid

Welcome back to your tour guide for Spain! When going to Spain, flying into Madrid, the capital, is the best bet.

When in Madrid you must go to a Real Madrid futbol game, futbol is a religion there. The game against Barcelona, their rival, is always the best. A ticket can cost up to $375, which is a little costly but it is definitely worth the price.

The best dinner restaurant to eat at is Restaurant Zalacain. At $200 for two, it is definitely on the expensive end of the food spectrum (More than $50). If you are near the Tirso de Molina subway station, you can find a Menu del Dia for lunch, which will include a two course meal and coffee or dessert for about ten euros (Less than $30). Make sure that if it doesn't come with a drink, that you ask for tap water, or else the waiter will bring you bottled water and charge extra for it. For breakfast, the best option is the Sal. It's a department store with a supermarket where you can by bread, cheese, and fruit for an easy 5 euro breakfast (Less than $30).
