Several recommendations:

-It's a long way from Valencia to Bilbao- I would go from Valencia to Barcelona (straight up the coast- there is a toll highway) and then north west to Bilbao.


- Neither Malaga nor Almeria are the places to visit in Southern Spain (Seville, Cordoba and Granada are must sees) When going to Almeria try to make a detour and visit Granada.

- Drive defensively- there can be aggressive drivers around
Thanks for the recommendations. I am just going to Almeria for a one night (music festival) and staying in Marbella followed by a few days at Malaga. I will definitely look into going to Seville, Cordoba and Granada.

Also I was going to rent a Mini Cooper - do you think I should go bigger considering I will be hitting a lot of freeways??

Once again thanks Dude... I am very excited to finally visit Spain and my first F1 race at Valencia

Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics German, the lovers French and it is all organised by the Swiss. Hell is where the police are German, the chefs British, the mechanics French, the lovers Swiss and its all organised by the Italians.
