Travelling Spain & Portugal

Hi,

This summer I will travelling around Spain and Portugal for about 2 weeks and I was wondering what the best mode of transport is to get around. Train or bus? Do you think it is important to book accommodation and travel early or just wing it when I get there. I will be travelling on after Running of the Bulls. Also, anyone know anything about Inter-Rail Zone Passes for a period of time. For Spain, Portugal & Morrocco is £145 for 16 days. Just wanted to know if I go with this option, will I be getting ripped off. Sorry for all the questions, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi! I heard that a new company is going to start flexible transportation for independent travellers in Spain and Portugal soon...I think the web site is eurohop.es, but probably they're still working on it...anyway you can try to get in touch at info@eurohop.es...a friend of mine told me it's going to be something like Oz Experience or The Blue Banana but around Spain and Portugal and it will be cheap...
Hope it will help!

Hey guys,

Thanks for the advice. Will definetly be something to consider. Obviously be looking for the cheapest and most reliable option. Will chat to my mate about sortymstay.com as it looks quite good and I'll drop an email to Euro Hop as well.

Thanks again

Hate to be a cynic but this sortmystay.com looks a bit low-fi (website anyway), so be aware Chloe. I guess its only £30 so no big deal but you would want to leave it to someone and then they not come through for you, then you miss out. I realise there are all these people saying how much they saved, how good it was but they sounds so gushing that you cant help but think theyve been written by the company themselves. Hope im wrong cause it would be a good service otherwise. Let us know if you do go with them.

Hey,

I know what you're saying, you hear so much crap about rip off merchants! I think it is still early days for that sort my stay website. My mate Ella posted one of the replies on the site - so I know that one at least is genuine. She didnt part with any money until they had given her a full quote etc, so she knew she was saving before she booked.

Anyway - whack them an email and see what they suggest - it may save you time and money??
