Yli 170 000 suomalaista seuraa La Promesa -sarjaa, jonka kuvauspaikkoja voi kokea myös itse Espanjassa. Vieraile esimerkiksi La Granja de San Ildefonson kuninkaallisessa palatsissa Segoviassa, Galician Vilelan rannalla tai Chinchónin kirkossa ja koe draamasarjan huikea tunnelma paikan päällä!
Vuonna 2024 Espanjassa vieraili 608 825 suomalaista, mikä on 3 % enemmän kuin edellisvuonna. Suosituimpia alueita ovat Kanariansaaret ja Andalusia, mutta myös esimerkiksi Baskimaa ja Galicia kasvattavat suosiotaan. Keskimääräinen kulutus matkoilla on kasvussa, ja hotellit ovat edelleen suosituin majoitusmuoto. Vaikka omatoimimatkat ovat yleisiä, matkanjärjestäjillä on yhä tärkeä rooli.
Espanjan suurnopeusjunat tarjoavat ekologisen ja mukavan vaihtoehdon lentämiselle. Renfen uudistunut Spain Rail Pass mahdollistaa joustavan matkustamisen kaikille matkailijoille. Lisäksi Espanjassa voi kokea luksusjunien glamouria neljällä erikoisreitillä. Junamatkustusta tuetaan kestävän matkailun strategiaan perustuen, mikä näkyy kilpailukykyisinä hintoina ja matkailijoille tarjottavina etuina.
Espanja esittäytyy Matkamessuilla 2025 (17.–19.1.) laajalla tarjonnalla, ja mukana on myös monia suomalaisille vähemmän tunnettuja alueita. Espanjan osastolla 6p50 on 13 alanäytteilleasettajaa esittelemässä matkakohteiden uutuuksia ja tapahtumia. Median edustajat voivat sopia haastatteluja etukäteen. Tervetuloa osastolle!
