Hello everyone! I will be in Madrid and Barcelona from August 14th to 19th. Is it safe? Are pickpockets particularly common? Is it safe for the 18th at 9:30 PM to attend the Flamenco performance at the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona, which ends at 11:00 PM? Thank you in advance ? Spain Q&A
Do you know how to take a taxi in Seville? My flight to Barcelona is at 9 am, and the bus stop to the airport is a bit far from where I'm staying. I want to take a taxi directly to the airport. I'm staying at a guesthouse, and the host is not very helpful. I asked him to help me book a taxi, but his response was not helpful. Can I hail a taxi on the street in Seville at 6:30 in the morning, or do I need to call and book in advance ? Spain Q&A
Can you tell me how parking in Madrid and Barcelona works? I've read online that it's free on weekends. Is that true? Is it free all day on weekends? And if it's a weekday, is it free from 9pm to 9am the next day? Is that true ? Spain Q&A
I stayed for one night, drove into the parking lot, and the attendant appeared for the fee. When I picked up the car, the attendant was also there. My luggage is at that hotel, and it's hard to say if there's anyone watching overnight. The parking lot doesn't have a fence or a guard booth, but it still looks safe. After all, there are few outsiders in the small city, mostly tourists. If the luggage is left in the car overnight, don't open the trunk after parking, just cover it up so it's not visible from the outside ? Spain Q&A
I'm planning to travel from Seville to Lisbon tomorrow. Is the road easy to handle and tiring? Which area should I live in Lisbon? If I need to stop halfway, where is the best place to rest and have a scenic spot, preferably natural scenery ? Spain Q&A
Is it safe to have luggage in the car at a paid parking lot? Some friends say that the security in Spain is not good, and people might break the glass and steal the luggage. But the luggage will definitely be in the car before checking in. Do I need to get glass insurance at the car rental company ? Spain Q&A
Can the main driver pick up the Mercedes-Benz V-class with only one international credit card? The customer service said it might require two cards. Please inform those who have done it before, thank you ? Spain Q&A
I feel that big cities can be a bit chaotic. Today in Barcelona, I felt like some people's eyes were flickering. In other cities like Madrid and Toledo, there were no issues, of course, as long as you don't challenge human nature ? Spain Q&A
