It was in our Tenerife travel that I had my taste of real vacation. I have to be honest that I am no beach bum but in Tenerife you just can not resist the water and the views. I visited my aunt living in Tenerife for a few weeks and it was the best time of my life. Getting the best of you Tenerife Holiday means staying for a few days and trying to savor what it has to offer.
My first stop is getting to Mount Teide, the 3rd largest volcano in the whole world and the highest elevation in Spain. The cable car trip really scared me at first yet as time passes the fear slowly ebbs away as I admire the scenic view below and ahead of me. Talks of climbing Mount Teide encourage us and we set a late date to do that. After our cable car experience we went to different tourist spots in the place. After three days of preparation, well, contacting friends and companions for the climb we head to conquer Mount Teide. Yeah, I am just exaggerating on conquering all of Mount Teide; we just went a little higher than the plains below the mountain and scourge the area for a better view and that’s it. But it was the best ever in my life. The cable car is a sensible way of going up to Mount Teide but if you are challenge and adventure perhaps you will take the route from the bottom though.
After spending a day and one night in Mount Teide we went next to Masca after a day of resting. It was another day of walking but this time with another pleasure of seeing a beautifully set village. Icod de los Vinos is another divinely set town. I had also fallen in love with La Gomera.
Tenerife is indeed a paradise to me.

Spain now is one of the leading destinations for warmer weather together with Turkey and Greece. For European tourist and sun seeker; the Spanish land is an easy target for holidays especially with cheap fares Spain on its railway travel.
The Balearic Islands with the Majorca heading it is one among those who would be receiving an influx of guests as the weather is turning colder at the other parts of world. Madrid though without its share of beaches is still running close behind the Balearic Islands to receive millions of tourists. Perhaps tourist would stay a few days in Madrid and culture hop and visit the major attractions and seal their holidays by going to beach destinations in Spain such as the Balearic Islands. Cheap flights to Madrid Spain offered months ago is one factor to consider in the sudden increase of tourists in this Spain capital.
Cheap car hire Spain also gives you a chance to visit Madrid’s tourist attraction at your leisurely pace.

The Balearic Island as of these times really had a very festive atmosphere; the surrounding areas are full of tourist going to and fro from sun bathing to shopping and museum hopping. Luxurious and water activities are very much present in this island. Though, the sun, sun and sand is the most common reason o tourist coming on here.
