Here is my comprehensive guide to help you plan a Spain family trip.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From medieval churches to stunning beaches and fun-filled islands, Spain is brimming with impressive sights and exciting experiences for the whole family. There are plenty of fun adventures to be had in Spain with kids: frolic on picture-perfect beaches on the island of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/things-to-do-in-mallorca-beyond-the-resort\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"29024\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mallorca<\/a>, go on a tapas tour or take a cooking class in Madrid, wander the famous Sagrada Familia Cathedral in Barcelona, or hike the famous <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/caminito-del-rey-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"25204\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Caminito del Rey<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There are few countries as kid-friendly as Spain. <\/strong>Children of all ages are welcome everywhere (even in bars at midnight!); most restaurants serve kid menus and offer high chairs; and there are plenty of museums designed for kids. The great infrastructure in the country also means it\u2019s easy to get around and explore without worrying for your kids\u2019 safety.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Spain is a special place for me: I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/living-spain\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"22127\">lived in Spain<\/a> for 8 years with my Spanish husband; our daughter was born there and we go back to Spain almost every year to visit family. It\u2019s probably the country I know best, next to my home country Singapore. For those planning to travel Spain with kids, I\u2019m sharing details of our trip to help you plan your Spain family trip.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Trip to Spain with Kids\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/photos\/i-p4rVnvw\/0\/MzntkgQmrjzqtVGfrTGMwW8jVV8GcGxWdwPgMF3fF\/O\/i-p4rVnvw.png\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/photos\/i-p4rVnvw\/0\/MzntkgQmrjzqtVGfrTGMwW8jVV8GcGxWdwPgMF3fF\/O\/i-p4rVnvw.png\" alt=\"Trip to Spain with Kids\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"My_Guide_to_Traveling_Spain_with_Kids\">My Guide to Traveling Spain with Kids<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"How_to_Get_to_Spainnbsp\">How to Get to Spain\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Madrid is a well connected city and caters to both low cost and standard carriers. The main international airport in Madrid is Adolfo Su\u00e1rez Madrid Barajas Airport and is situated close to the city center. If you\u2019re flying from other parts of Europe, you can cheap <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aireuropa.com\/en-us\/flight-deals-to-madrid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Madrid flights<\/a> for less than $100. For example, we got flights from London to Madrid once for as cheap as $30 return.<\/p>\n<p>Flights from major hubs like New York City and Chicago\u2019s O\u2019Hare Airport are usually quite affordable. During the off-season, a direct flight can cost as little as $350, while peak season fares hover around $1,000. A flight from New York goes for about $359.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with kids - How to Get to Spain\u00a0\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Madrid\/i-KSsrx2r\/0\/KPRgrqZFm3wCSbLHnHt7mGxthLGZPWZ585VSwr5gv\/X4\/IMG_3689-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Madrid\/i-KSsrx2r\/0\/KPRgrqZFm3wCSbLHnHt7mGxthLGZPWZ585VSwr5gv\/X4\/IMG_3689-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with kids - How to Get to Spain\u00a0\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"When_to_Travel_Spain_with_Kids\">When to Travel Spain with Kids<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many people assume Spain to be warm throughout the year, but it has a myriad of terrains and climates. Northern Spain (Bilbao, San Sebastian, Santander), for example, has a rainy and cool climate for most of the year. In general, the summer months have the best weather across the country. But that\u2019s also the time when Spain is most crowded and expensive.<\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, the best time to travel Spain is in spring (between March and May) and autumn (September and October). You\u2019ll still soak up the sunshine, the weather is generally quite mild, and you\u2019ll be able to take in most museums and sights without too much crowd.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with kids - When to Travel Spain with Kids\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Madrid\/i-gbzggCZ\/0\/NFXvmTTSFm5JkCFsSVR5GRZSKW3BLTVGrgcPmcCRb\/X4\/IMG_3453-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Madrid\/i-gbzggCZ\/0\/NFXvmTTSFm5JkCFsSVR5GRZSKW3BLTVGrgcPmcCRb\/X4\/IMG_3453-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with kids - When to Travel Spain with Kids\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"How_Long_to_Travel_Spain_with_Kids\">How Long to Travel Spain with Kids?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Spain is an extremely diverse country with each province offering different cultures, cuisines and landscapes \u2014 it\u2019s no wonder Spain is one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/most-visited-countries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">most visited countries in the world<\/a>. In the seven years I spent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/living-spain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">living in Spain<\/a>, I traveled throughout the country at every chance I had and still have not seen it all!<\/p>\n<p>If this is your first trip to Spain, I recommend spending at least two weeks in Spain. You\u2019ll not only get to visit the most famous parts of Spain, like Madrid and Barcelona, but you\u2019ll also get to see the coast along Valencia, and the Andalusia region that is the most traditional part of the country.

Spain\u2019s network of highways are in excellent condition and it\u2019s easy to navigate even if you don\u2019t read Spanish. Small roads in old towns can be tricky though, as they\u2019re narrow and busy.<\/p>\n<p>Car rental in Spain is extremely affordable and you can find rentals as cheap as 30 euros a day. We always use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discovercars.com\/spain\/madrid\/mad?a_aid=wildjunket\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Discover Cars<\/a> as they\u2019ve consistently given the best prices and customer service.

Spain has an excellent train system, with comfortable, high-speed trains connecting the major cities. The national train operator in Spain is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.renfe.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Renfe<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Traveling by bus is the cheapest option. Some of the main bus operators in Spain are Alsa, Comes, and Conda.

Traveling Spain with babies or toddlers is easy and fun, as the infrastructure in Spain is excellent for families. You\u2019ll find baby-changing facilities in bathrooms, highchairs and kids\u2019 menus at restaurants, and plenty of playgrounds, parks and kid-oriented museums.<\/p>\n<p>My daughter was born in Spain \u2013 and even though we left when she was 2 years old, we go back to Spain almost every year to visit family. When she was very little, we struggled with keeping to her sleep schedule as mealtimes are late there (lunch at is at 2pm and dinner is usually at 9-10pm) and things go on till late especially in summer. But now that\u2019s she is 9 years old, she loves being able to stay out late and go out to bars and restaurants with us.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain family trip - Which Ages Would Enjoy it Most?\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Granada\/i-JtGLWrZ\/0\/M4KBMXD3MnZz3btRzjwg9jvGWK3BdWJwQLd6vZXJc\/X4\/IMG_4236-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Granada\/i-JtGLWrZ\/0\/M4KBMXD3MnZz3btRzjwg9jvGWK3BdWJwQLd6vZXJc\/X4\/IMG_4236-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain family trip - Which Ages Would Enjoy it Most?\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"Travel_Spain_Independently_vs_on_A_Tour\">Travel Spain Independently vs on A Tour?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Spain is one of the easiest countries to travel; they\u2019ve got excellent infrastructure, transport system, and kid-friendly amenities. There\u2019s no shortage of great museums that are easy to visit on your own, and cooking classes\/food tours you can sign up for, as well as great public transport system that is easy to navigate.<\/p>\n<p>The only issue that I can see if the language barrier as many people in Spain don\u2019t speak a second language. Still, those who work in hotels and airports will usually speak some English. Plus, there\u2019s nothing Google Translator can\u2019t help with these days.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with Children - Do You Need to Book a Tour to Travel Spain with Kids\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-nvHsrsb\/0\/LPfxkzGz5P3VvmpSK4TRtXMsf84vhkdw3Tk6KxHpN\/X4\/IMG_3918-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-nvHsrsb\/0\/LPfxkzGz5P3VvmpSK4TRtXMsf84vhkdw3Tk6KxHpN\/X4\/IMG_3918-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with Children - Do You Need to Book a Tour to Travel Spain with Kids\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"Is_it_Safe_to_Travel_Spain_with_Kids\">Is it Safe to Travel Spain with Kids?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Spain is one of the safest countries in the world. We lived in Spain for 8 years and our daughter was born there; we never once had any safety issues. I know some of you might be worried about safety in Spain after reading about anti-tourist protests and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2024\/07\/09\/barcelona-residents-squirt-travelers-with-water-to-protest-overtourism.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">water gun confrontations<\/a> in Barcelona. Those aren\u2019t violent and tourists have never been hurt. Keep yourself updated and stay away from the protests. Always keep your kids close and maybe get them to wear an Airtag just in case they get lost.<\/p>\n<p>What I would suggest is avoid traveling Spain in summer, the peak tourist season, when many parts are packed to the brim with tourists. If you do, try to veer off the well-trodden path and visit lesser-visited places instead \u2013 last summer we went back to Spain to visit family and took the chance to visit Salamanca which was gloriously empty and absolutely beautiful. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with Children - Is it Safe to Travel Spain with Kids\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Madrid\/i-gMS92GK\/0\/MjrhLNfqMK9gsWHvjfrnksXwGSvWpvgtCCJjH96p3\/X4\/IMG_3679-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Madrid\/i-gMS92GK\/0\/MjrhLNfqMK9gsWHvjfrnksXwGSvWpvgtCCJjH96p3\/X4\/IMG_3679-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with Children - Is it Safe to Travel Spain with Kids\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"How_to_Get_Travel_Insurance_for_Kids\">How to Get Travel Insurance for Kids<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Regardless of how long you are traveling in Spain, I recommend getting travel insurance before your trip.

These creamy fritters are a staple of the Spanish tapas scene, and you\u2019ll find them offered throughout the country. They come with different fillings, but the ones with jamon serrano are easily the most popular!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paella <\/strong>\u2013 The national dish of Spain is well known all over the world, and is definitely the number one most popular Spanish food.

If you like to be as safe as possible, having the Typhoid and Hepatitis A (and even Hepatitis B) vaccines are recommended.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with kids - How to Keep Your Kids Healthy in Spain\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-pxWrbrQ\/0\/M6NhFCvnJfkHxsB8K6nNtnXPvNpxmf7GLs27qFcpX\/X4\/IMG_3842-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-pxWrbrQ\/0\/M6NhFCvnJfkHxsB8K6nNtnXPvNpxmf7GLs27qFcpX\/X4\/IMG_3842-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with kids - How to Keep Your Kids Healthy in Spain\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"How_to_Stay_Connected_in_Spain_with_Kids\">How to Stay Connected in Spain with Kids<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To stay connected in Spain, I recommend getting an eSIM before arrival or a local SIM card at the airport upon arrival. We always buy our <a href=\"https:\/\/airalo.pxf.io\/OeRyXW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">eSIM on Airalo<\/a> for Spain and it has worked really well on every trip. We had unlimited internet data, with reception even on top of the Sierra Nevada ski slopes. <a href=\"https:\/\/airalo.pxf.io\/OeRyXW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Get your eSIM here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We minimize the time our daughter spends on devices at home and only give her access to the iPad on long drives and during flights. WiFi is easily available in public spaces in Spain (and every hotel has it), so you can easily download shows\/books for offline use before your trip.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with kids - How to Stay Connected in Spain with Kids\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-CCX9Q9p\/0\/L8SjCxmrBdRqnTLLBLQ9J2xPNnRVxnTcxcRpBpTjL\/X4\/IMG_4015-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-CCX9Q9p\/0\/L8SjCxmrBdRqnTLLBLQ9J2xPNnRVxnTcxcRpBpTjL\/X4\/IMG_4015-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with kids - How to Stay Connected in Spain with Kids\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"Cost_of_Travel_in_Spain_with_Children\">Cost of Travel in Spain with Children<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Spain is a relatively affordable destination, especially when compared to the US, UK and other parts of Western Europe. You can find amazing prices on accommodation and food during off-peak season. Expect to pay more during high season, such as summer and Christmas time.<\/p>\n<p>Accommodation is rather cheap in Spain, particularly outside of Madrid and Barcelona. You can find 3-star hotel rooms for $40-60 per night and Airbnbs for around US$50-100 per night. In summer and Christmas, expect the prices to almost double. Last summer, we spent $150\/night on our Airbnb near Parque Retiro in Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>Restaurants in Spain offer excellent value. Many of them offer <em>menu del dia<\/em> (lunch set menus) for $10-20 that includes 3 courses (first dish, main course and dessert). You can usually choose from a salad or soup for the first dish, and a meat or fish dish for the main course. Tapas are usually quite affordable too \u2013 in certain cities like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/granada-best-place-to-live-spain\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"22159\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Granada<\/a>, most bars offer free tapas when you order a drink (so you end up just spending $4-6 for a meal).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with kids itinerary - Cost of Travel in Spain with Children\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-SBscMg6\/0\/NhWhRc2PVT9QNNQ83JXX2g5ZXS5D9MdcNbFNgVjn6\/X4\/IMG_3815-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Salamanca\/i-SBscMg6\/0\/NhWhRc2PVT9QNNQ83JXX2g5ZXS5D9MdcNbFNgVjn6\/X4\/IMG_3815-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with kids itinerary - Cost of Travel in Spain with Children\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"What_to_Pack_for_a_Spain_Family_Trip\">What to Pack for a Spain Family Trip<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spain with kids - What to Pack for a Spain Family Trip\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Granada\/i-nW8rt6R\/0\/L2jcHRzzL8fpSdj3xB8XfvLMdPxG2GTwdLrF7WMBF\/X4\/2021122223423927-2566180517167450843-IMG_8412-X4.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Europe\/Spain\/Granada\/i-nW8rt6R\/0\/L2jcHRzzL8fpSdj3xB8XfvLMdPxG2GTwdLrF7WMBF\/X4\/2021122223423927-2566180517167450843-IMG_8412-X4.jpg\" alt=\"Spain with kids - What to Pack for a Spain Family Trip\"\/><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-light-greyish-orange-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-light-greyish-orange-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"Practical_Tips_for_Traveling_Spain_with_Kids\">Practical Tips for Traveling Spain with Kids<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When planning your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildjunket.com\/spain-itinerary-2-week-spain-road-trip\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Spain itinerary<\/a>, be sure to factor in some downtime and days where you do nothing. The dry weather and late mealtimes can take some getting use to.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure the children are up to date with routine vaccinations, and discuss possible travel vaccines well before departure, as some are not suitable for children aged less than a year.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Remember to pack rehydration powder in case your child vomits or experiences diarrhea. In Spain\u2019s often-searing heat, you\u2019ll need to be extra careful with heat exhaustion and dehydration.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Spain has a very rich culinary culture; take the opportunity to introduce your kids to Spanish food and let them try all kinds of tapas. Forget about McDonalds or Pizza Hut, your kids will love typical Spanish dishes like tortilla espa\u00f1ola and croquetas.
