Spain Itinerary help? Valencia-Andalusia
Hi!! I am planning a Spain trip from around June 1-10 and thinking of flying into Valencia and out of Malaga (nothing is booked yet). I was wondering where is the area place to stay/must see things to do are while there.
I'd love to do day trips in the Andalusia region and wondering where the best home base would be. For context, it will be 2 girls in mid-twenties; our interests are (in no particular order) culture, shopping, cliff jumping, hiking, nightlife, beautiful beaches and scenery, good food, and architecture. I would like to keep it as low-budget as possible. I was thinking of a couple days in Valencia then take a train south and see Andalusia region like maybe Grenada, Sevilla, Cordoba, or Malaga? This will be my first time in Spain and her first time in Europe. I kind of wanted to avoid expensive touristy areas like barcelona or madrid to have more of a relaxed vacation. This is my tentative itenerary
