Moving around Spain - Offers to Every Taste

Tourists who travel Spain are offered a wide range of possibilities to move around the country.

Indeed, excellent rail and automobile roads are at your service throughout the country letting you explore the best places in Spain in reasonable comfort.

Let us suppose you've arrived at one of the land's international airports in Barcelona, Granada, Palma de Mallorca or Valencia and are now considering further ways of moving around Spain by air. Here, a number of domestic operators, including such major ones as IBERIA and AVIACO, AIR EUROPA, SPANAIR and some more, offer regular flights to various locations. While this is naturally the most expensive means of moving around Spain, it is also the fastest one.

A much cheaper but not less efficient alternative for moving around Spain is by train. Trains in Spain are modern and comfortable and usually time accurate. RENFE and FEVE are major railway companies; and such carriers as TALGO or AVE offer tours around Spain on long-distance trains with special services like bars, disco floors, video rooms and luxurious apartments. Several high-speed trains commute between large cities so a trip from Madrid to Seville can take you only about 3 hours to complete. Special discount prices (as the Youth Card, Tourist Card and Eurail Pass to name just a few) make moving around Spain by train even a more attractive option.

If there is no direct train to the city or town you would like to visit, catch a bus. This means of transport is rather cheap but still convenient and reliable. Expect to be charged around 10 Euro per 100km and be aware that on holidays and weekends schedules may change.

Some other ways of moving around Spain include car-hire, taxi service and metro. While the first two modes of transport are a bit expensive, they provide freedom of movement as you travel Spain and allow you to get to some of the sightseeings and attractions of Spain as close as possible; but on the other hand, underground roads have no traffic jams even in rush hours.

Waters of Mediterranean are open for boats and yachts and the weather around the Canary Islands is splendid all year round.
