Granada

Getting There/Around

Getting there and around:

By air:


Granada does not have an international airport, so you have to transfer from either Madrid or Barcelona. You can also fly into Malaga and take a bus from there. The local airport is located about 15km from the center of Granada.

Regular local operators:
Air Aviaco
Air Europa

By train:

Granada can be reached by train, though they do not have any international connections. There are trains from Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia.

By bus:

There's a regular connection to Seville and Corboda about nine times a day, and fourteen times to Malaga. Within the city, the buses are a popular mode of travel. You rarely have to wait more than 15 minutes and the bus routes frequent many of the tourist spots and city sights. The popular number 3 bus goes from the main bus station to the Gran Via Colon.

By car:

Granada is easily accessible by car. Be warned that car rental is expensive. The streets are often narrow and congested so driving can be very difficult, especially for tourists. It might be more efficient to entrust your travels to taxi drivers who know the city and are easily flagged down.

On foot:

Much of Granada is easily accessed by walking. Certainly getting into the city will require transportation, and long trips are often unavoidable, but overall, many of the attractions are within walking distance. A centrally located hotel, or one quick cab or bus ride could be all you need for a jam-packed day of sight seeing and cultural immersion.
