2. Prepare your visit in advance
Guided tours, entrance to the monuments… Even if it’s usually not too expensive in Spain, for a large family or a large group of friends, costs soon mount up. How can you visit Lloret on a budget?
You should find out about entrance conditions in particular. Start by reading our articles on things to do in Lloret. You will find information about prices and addresses of the places to visit.
Rather than paying to visit places, you can also choose to walk around the town. It is full of interesting places which, even from the outside, will immerse you in their history. The modernist cemetery, for example, or the modernist buildings in the old town will enable you to learn more about the famous “Americanos”.
