Spain is a culturally diverse country with more than 5 languages, 17 different religions, and 50 provinces to choose from for your next vacation. A typical vacation could be eating tapas with cider on a calm evening, sipping some espresso in a cafe or exploring the upscale museums, large shopping complexes, and cathedrals that dot the country’s many streets and corners. But if you are more inclined to sightseeing, a cruize on one of the famous Guadian, Guadalquivir, or Douro Rivers would be more revealing. Admire the Moorish palaces, gothic cathedrals, Roman ruins, and many cultural centers on almost every bend of these rivers. Explore the endless beauty of the country in a fun and wild way with any of the top river cruise in Spain.
