Candeleda is in Valle del Tiétar. What the area is like and what trips start there

Which way it goes

From the Tiétar valley nobody goes up to Ávila to reach Madrid: the valley road continues towards San Martín de Valdeiglesias and enters Madrid from the south-west, or drivers drop down to the A-5 through Toledo province. For Barajas the route crosses Madrid on the M-40 or M-50.

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: Between Ávila and Madrid, the route via the AP-51 and AP-6 has tolls; if you prefer the N-110 and the Alto del León, say so when booking.

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 Candeleda 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 151 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.
• Child restraint systems if you need them.
• The 10 % Spanish VAT on passenger transport.

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.
