Speaking exclusively to TTG, the country’s secretary of state for tourism, Rosana Morillo, said 2023 had been an “extraordinary year” for Spain, one in which the country was able to grow tourism income compared with 2019 even though visitor numbers are yet to fully recover to pre-pandemic levels – a feat she attributed to “the continued trust of the British traveller”.
“Spain is really thankful,” said Morillo. “It’s a classic destination for British tourists, and we’re always trying to improve our offer.”
