  1. AT#924 - Travel to Cáceres, Spain Chris Christensen 58:36

Hear about travel to Cáceres, Spain, as the Amateur Traveler talks to travel writer Troy Nahumko, who literally wrote the book on this unexplored corner of Spain.

Why should you go to Cáceres?

Troy says, “It might have made the news over there, this anti tourism backlash that you might have been seeing here in the big cities like Barcelona, Malaga. It’s just not the story throughout the country. Out here, travelers are cherished and welcomed. It’s a really beautiful place. And it’s one of these places that, You would use all of those terrible overused adjectives in travel writing. This is undiscovered. This is the place that your friends have never heard about. This is the jewel. This is all of these things that just nobody knows about.”

Troy’s recommended itinerary for visiting Cáceres, Spain, focuses on its rich history, UNESCO landmarks, cuisine, and nearby attractions in Extremadura. Here’s a structured itinerary based on his suggestions:

Day 1: Arrival in Cáceres
