          1st time to Spain

          Jump to last reply Flag this topic

          My wife and I have done 10 "do it yourselve" trips to Gy Italy and France - rented gites, driven all over these countries, gotten by without language skills except for german.

          I would like to vist SW France to see that area and then venture into the Rioja district and other N Spain areas.

          My general questions are is Spain anymore difficult than say France without language skills, availability of gites to rent, driving difficulties, getting by in restuarants etc.

          I like the freedom of doing it ourselves but maybe a tour is one way to solve some problems

          any ideas, thoughts - thank you Dale
