Next stop, where to?
After settled the first 3-4 nights of itinerary, there are a few more regions for your pleasure:
1. head east to Madrid
2. head northeast to Bilbao
3. head south to Valencia
4. ... then to Andalusia
or if you see the Spain map, 5. go to France
However, do take note that due to C19, France has different VTL requirement such as ART or PCR test as valid pre-departure test to Singapore, mRNA or Sinovac validity as vaccine cert, etc. So, if I were you, stay in Spain for this trip and keep out of the frequently changed immigration rules.
If you had never been to Spain, then going Madrid would be the right choice. However, this will spell the end of your self-drive holiday. Very likely, you'll have to return your car either in Barcelona (and then buy a return tickets to Madrid - assuming your VTL flight is from Barcelona) or you drive to Madrid just to have more driving experiences. So, if you chose to go Madrid, then basically, this would be your itinerary (2 weeks holiday):
1. Pick up car in Barcelona airport and drive to the few surrounding towns 3-4 nights
2. Return car in Madrid and stay for 3 - 4 nights
3. Took a train to Barcelona and stay for 3 nights
4. Home sweet home
If you could squeeze in another week aka 3 weeks holiday, then after Montserrat, this would be the plan (before returning car in Madrid):
1a) Drive to Zaragoza 1-2 nights
1b) Drive to San Sabastian 1 night
1c) Drive to Bilbao 1 night
1d) Drive to Segovia 1-2 night
This will clock another 1000km to your driving in Spain aka plus the 500km = 1500km driving trip. This driving route consist of exciting winding mountain ride, coastal (cliff), breaches, tall mountain which snows in winter and romantic Disneyland Castles and churches.
Consider done?
Gratitude!
