Little by little the summer atmosphere is appearing on the horizon. We are already in June and everything smells of beaches, festivals and terraces. And our selection of trips this week is designed precisely for those people who still do not know where they will spend their vacations, those who have not yet started the search, or those who want a getaway before or after the summer.
Well, here we are and our findings to help in the search. As you will see, the 5 offers that we propose below are for everyone: from family trips taking a cruise on the Guadalquivir to a getaway with friends in a hotel in the New York Big Apple. Which one interests you?
If you are one of those who want to travel now or prefer to be proactive and reserve something for later, we suggest an ideal getaway to forget about the madding crowd in the region of Liébana, in Cantabria. The La Hermida spa hotel offers 2,000 m2 of total relaxation, with a spa, a large hydrotherapy pool with views of the surrounding hills, a Jacuzzi and a sauna.
Includes accommodation for 2 people on a half-board basis with continental breakfast served at the table and dinner (drinks not included), and access to the thermal circuit. Saturday stays have a supplement of €30.

When: until July 14 and from September 20 to October 10.
As summer approaches, the prices of international flights -and travel in general- experience an increase. At the moment it is very difficult, for example, to find good deals to New York, not only because of the flights, but also because of the hotels. Usually, the price of this package from Spain, with a good accommodation in Manhattan this summer, is above €2,500 per person. Except in this case, that a week-long trip is close to €2,000. A good saving…
Includes flights from Barcelona to New York with checked baggage, 7 nights at the Park Central hotel (on Seventh Avenue), transfers, a city tour, taxes and travel insurance.
Where to book: Tourist Forum
Departures: July 1 and August 1.

In the “flight hotel” search engines you can always find bargains. In the face of summer, we have discovered an excellent opportunity for a 3-day getaway to the Portuguese capital. What is interesting is the accommodation, since the selected hotel is very well located in the center of the city, the reviews are very good, and the availability between June and September -even for weekends- for budgets of less than €300 per person is more than acceptable.
Includes round-trip flights from Spain and 2 nights at the aforementioned hotel. The supplement for breakfast is €19 per person.
