Feedback on where to go (23 Mar to 8 Apr 2018)

Hi everyone

I'm planning another solo trip from 23 Mar to 8 Apr 2018. I'm thinking of going to
- Spain (minus Barcelona since I've been there), or
- Greece, or
- Turkey (I didn't have a good experience with the touts in Istanbul but always wanted to go).

I'm wondering if you have any feedback on any of the places. I'm also open to other places (travelling from Singapore) but don't want to pay more than SGD1200 for a return flight. I prefer colder weather as well (at the very least, colder than Singapore).

Thank you!

You will get more responses if you post this on the Europe board. All three are good destinations but that i a bit early for Greece, especially for the islands. Now is perhaps not the best time to visit Turkey, but not for weather reasons.

you cannot go wrong with Santorini the beginning of April, hotels are just starting to open up again after the season and its spectacular in every way , say in Oia and look for Canaves Oil Suites, Fanari Villas, Santorini Secret. are all great. do not stay in Fira too busy
sunsets are great in Oia.

If you're from the USA, Turkey won't give you a VISA to enter the country. Your dates are perfect for Japan's Cherry Blossom season.

You'll be arriving at the perfect time to visit Seville in Spain. Spring in Seville is the time of Semana Santa and La Ferria, two of the most spectacular events in Andalucia's calendar. The whole city comes out on the streets dressed in traditional attire and the parties last for days, despite the strong religious associations.

It's also the best time to visit for the climate. From May onwards temperatures soar into the 40s and getting a good nights sleep becomes virtually impossible because of the heat. You'll be there at the perfect time for warm, sunny but tolerable weather.

Then head to Cadiz and Cordoba!

Saw your post looking for a place myself (see my username). I strongly recommend Turkey - visa issues have been cleared as of last week. It really is beautiful combo of east and west, also very inexpensive.
