Ávila is in Ávila y el Valle Amblés. What the area is like and what trips start there
Which way it goes
From Ávila to Madrid the route is the AP-51 toll road to Villacastín and then the AP-6, which crosses the mountains through the Guadarrama tunnel and continues as the A-6; toll-free, the N-110 and the Alto del León pass. For Barajas the route skirts Madrid on the M-40 or M-50, and the conventional train via El Escorial stops in Madrid, not at the airport.
Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, seen from Ávila
From Ávila province there is no way to reach Barajas without changing in Madrid, and the first trains do not arrive in time for the earliest flights. From the Tiétar valley there is no train at all: a car is the only practical option.
On arrival: Madrid capital
The capital holds the stations, hospitals, trade fairs and most of the region's hotels. The pre-booked trips requested from here are those that leave the municipality: day trips, business transfers to neighbouring provinces and leisure in the southern metro area.
When demand peaks
- Snow on the passes (December to March): Snow and ice affect the Pico pass, the Gredos crossings and the Alto del León, and Ávila, at over a thousand metres, has very cold mornings. In winter, trips across the mountains need more margin.
Tip: From the Tiétar valley to Barajas, say so when booking: the route heads to Madrid down the valley rather than through Ávila, and the pickup time is worked out differently.
Airport pickup
For arrivals, the driver waits in the terminal with a name sign and helps with your luggage. We track the flight number, so a delay costs nothing extra within the terminal’s complimentary waiting time.
What time to leave Ávila for your flight

Flight time, minus the airline's check-in window (2 hours for European flights, 3 for long-haul), minus this trip's 98 minutes, 20 minutes of traffic margin and 10 for pickup. The exact pickup time is confirmed in writing when you book; we cover early hours always with an advance booking.
What the price includes
- Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.
- Complimentary waiting and flight or train tracking.

Tolls and parking, where the route requires them, are itemised in the quote and charged to the customer, with one exception: for airport destinations, if traffic calls for it, the route along the radial toll motorways is included at no cost provided there are at least 3 hours between pickup and the flight's departure. With less margin, that toll is itemised in the quote like any other. There are no hidden charges: any supplement is shown in the quote before you confirm.

Before you book, this may help
- Ávila to Madrid and Barajas: the conventional train from Ávila station or a car with a driver along the AP-51 and AP-6, and when each one makes sense
Ávila has a train to Madrid, but a conventional one: it leaves Ávila station, enters via El Escorial and ends at Chamartín, without reaching Atocha or Barajas directly and with gaps of hours between trains.
- Cebreros and the Alberche valley: to Ávila for the train and the hospital, to Madrid on the M-501 and to Barajas without crossing the mountains
Cebreros lives between two capitals: Ávila gives it the hospital, the station and public offices, while Madrid is closer at hand via San Martín de Valdeiglesias and the M-501, the reservoir road.
- Hotels and rural houses in Gredos, the Tiétar valley and Ávila's old town: how to offer transfers to guests arriving by train at Ávila station or by air at Barajas
Accommodation in Ávila province takes in more and more guests without a car: they arrive by conventional train at Ávila station, outside the walls, or by air at Barajas, {{ruta:avila-a-aeropuerto-madrid-barajas:km}} from the capital, and want to sleep in a rural house in Gredos or the Tiétar that no bus reaches.
