Rules in force · 9Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window…
  • Europe ↗Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window, counted across all 29 Schengen states together — not per country; the Entry/Exit System now logs each crossing, so an overstay is detected automatically.
  • Europe ↗On the first Schengen entry since EES began, non-EU travellers give four fingerprints and a face photo at the border instead of a passport stamp; there is nothing to apply for or pay in advance.
  • Iberia ↗Plan meals on the Iberian clock: Spanish kitchens serve lunch from about 13:30–14:00 and dinner from 20:30–21:00; Portugal eats an hour or so earlier. Early evenings are for tapas or petiscos, not full meals.
  • Iberia ↗Inland Spain and Portugal (Seville, Córdoba, Madrid, the Alentejo) pass 40 °C in heatwaves from late June to August: sightsee before 11:00 and after 18:00, and keep July–August for the coasts and the green north.
  • Iberia ↗Andorra and Gibraltar have their own border and customs rules and are reached only through Spain (or France for Andorra); read their pages before adding them, especially if you hold a limited Schengen visa.
  • Spain ↗Spain is in the Schengen area. Check the entry rules for your passport on official sources; the EU's Entry/Exit System registers non-EU visitors at the first Schengen border, and further pre-travel authorisation rules are being introduced.
  • Spain ↗High-speed trains have airport-style baggage screening at the station and boarding gates that close a few minutes before departure: arrive early.
  • Spain ↗Carry your passport or ID: police may ask for it, and hotels must register every guest's document.
  • Spain ↗The Alhambra in Granada and the Sagrada Família in Barcelona sell timed tickets that sell out weeks ahead in season; book on the official sites before you fix your dates.

Logroño is the capital of La Rioja and the practical base for the wine region, on the Ebro river and the Camino de Santiago. The old town is small and walkable, the food street Calle Laurel is the main event, and wineries sit within a short drive or bus ride. Two nights covers the city and one bodega; three lets you add a Rioja village.

Arrive & move

Airports are listed under At a glance; this is how to move once you are in

Getting around

The centre is flat and walkable — old town to Gran Vía is about 15 min on foot. City buses run roughly 07:00–23:00, ticket about €1 from the driver with free transfers for 30 min; night buses on Fri and Sat. Bicycles work well on the flat riverside lanes; the public bike scheme needs a pass from the tourist office (check it is running). Taxis are white with a red front-door stripe and a green light when free; short rides can reach €10.

Watch out

Safety

Logroño is a calm, walkable city and violent crime is rare. Watch your bag in the Laurel crowds, keep to lit streets late at night, and agree the price before a taxi or an unmarked bar tab.
  • Summer afternoons hit 30°C+; do the old town in the morning and evening.
  • Many wineries need a booked visit — walk-ins are often turned away.
  • Calle Laurel bars are small and fill after 21:00; standing room only on weekends.
  • Blue and green street parking is paid Mon–Sat 09:00–14:00 and 16:30–20:00; white spaces are free.
