El Kayak booking and search portal It is based on your data to carry out this ranking, depending on the reservations that have been made through its portal. It is undoubtedly an idea that can be biased, since there are also many people who travel to other cities, see Santiago de Compostela for pilgrims, by other means, but it gives us a fairly broad idea of ​​the searches for the most tourist destinations of our country.

All the 10 most visited Spanish cities They are probably not too surprising, since at the top we already find the main cities of the country, Madrid and Barcelona. Anyway, it is interesting to see which are the places that most attract people, apparently the Spaniards themselves who visit them the most, followed by Argentines and Mexicans.

1-Barcelona

Sagrada Familia in Barcelona

The rivalry between Madrid and Barcelona reaches everywhere, even in football, so it was to be expected that they would be the first in the ranking, and in this case the city of Barcelona has won the battle. It is a city that has a lot to offer, with the works of Gaudí, the unfinished Sagrada Familia cathedral, urban beaches, Las Ramblas for shopping or a visit to Camp Nou for fans.

2-Madrid

Madrid

Madrid had to be in second place. The capital it also offers us all kinds of entertainment and visits for a getaway or a vacation. The Retiro Park with its Crystal Palace, the monumental area with the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral, the Gran Vía area, the Puerta del Sol or the Temple of Debod.

3-Palma de Majorca

Palma de Mallorca

This destination is usually common not only for its city, but for the good weather and the large number of beaches that we can see and enjoy. In the middle of the city we have the old area with the Cathedral of Santa María de Palma, but if we go further we can also visit places like the Caves of Drach or spend the day touring coves along the coast.

4-Santa Cruz de Tenerife

Santa Cruz de Tenerife

We found another destination that is highly sought after especially for its good weather and for being beach tourism. In Santa Cruz de Tenerife we ​​can visit its city, but certainly what most attracts Spaniards is a getaway to enjoy the beaches and that summer time that seems to last all year round, something that does not happen in the Peninsula. In addition, prices are usually quite affordable thanks to low cost flights.

5-Malaga

Málaga

In Malaga we find a very interesting destination, where we can find a little of everything. A very happy culture with great gastronomy where we will feel very welcome. On the other hand, it is a very interesting place to enjoy monuments and history, with the Roman Theater and with the Gibralfaro Castle. There is also the Costa del Sol, for those who want to go to the beach, so it really is an entertaining destination.

Las Palmas

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is usually a common destination, along with Tenerife to enjoy the sun all year round. This city offers a nice architecture of white houses, and also nearby beaches, making it the ideal place for a well-deserved rest.

7-Seville

Sevilla

Seville is another southern city that offers us a culture that is popular throughout Spain, with its rebujito, its flamenco and its siesta. But the city is much more. It is a new area full of leisure spaces and a historical area in which we can see the famous Giralda, in the cathedral, the Real Alcázar or the Torre del Oro. Taking a walk along the riverside or wandering the streets of the old town in search of interesting shops is a real pleasure.

8-Ibiza

Dalt Vila in Ibiza

Ibiza is one of those destinations that is well known for its youthful atmosphere and nightlife, but this island offers much more. Although it fills up with people during the summer to enjoy those world-famous nightclubs, the truth is that there is a quieter tourism in Ibiza. Visit Dalt VilaIts old area, with its small artisan shops, is quite an experience, and that is not to mention the pleasure of discovering small coves that are much quieter and away from the hustle and bustle of the most popular beaches.

9-Valencia

Valencia

Valencia is undoubtedly a city of contrasts, in which visitors can find an old area in which to see the wonderful Lonja de la Seda, the old churches or the Torres de Serranos, but there is also a very modern Valencia. What not to miss is the City of Arts and Sciences, with the aquarium, an opera and exhibitions.

10-Alicante

Alicante

The vast majority of the destinations that are visited have beaches and some other monuments and entertainment venues. This set seems to be very attractive when visiting a city. In Alicante we also have everything, even if it is in the last position of this ranking. The Santa Barbara Castle on Mount Benacantil, dominating the entire city and offering the best views, the visit to the island of Tabarca and the atmosphere in the maritime zone.
