Traveling by train in Spain is the best way to get around, and in this video I'll tell you everything you need to know to do it in the best way. ???? Trains in Spain (and Europe!) at the best price and without reservation fees with TrainPal ???????? https://mytrainpal.onelink.me/q1rp/kd... ???? 5% OFF with CODE: CECI Traveling around Spain by train is a comfortable and efficient experience thanks to its extensive rail network, which includes the second largest high-speed train network in the world, with almost 4,000 km of track. Spain has several types of trains: long-distance high-speed (there are also long-distance and normal-speed trains), medium-distance trains, and Cercanías trains. Several high-speed train companies operate, such as Renfe with its AVE, Avlo, Ouigo, and Iryo trains. Not all trains are AVE (Spanish High Speed). Buying Tickets: Ticket prices vary, similar to those for flights, and it is recommended to buy as far in advance as possible to get the best prices and ensure availability. Avoid buying tickets directly at the station on the day of travel, as they are usually more expensive. Some tips about the AVE include checking the promotions of the different companies and considering less popular times to find better rates. Routes and Connections: There are direct services and others with intermediate stops, which affects both the price and the total time of the trip. Connection with Europe is limited: there is no high-speed train (TAV) to Portugal, although there are future plans; and France can be reached from Catalonia, but it is necessary to change trains. Among the AVE routes in Spain, the most notable are Madrid-Barcelona, Madrid-Seville, and Madrid-Valencia. The Renfe AVE train offers a comfortable and fast experience for these destinations. Baggage Policies: Each company has its own baggage policies. Almost all allow hand luggage, but not always larger luggage. All passengers must go through a security check before boarding. Punctuality and Procedures: Trains are very punctual, and doors close 2 minutes before the scheduled departure time. For speed, comfort, and sometimes even cost, it makes no sense to opt for a plane when the destination is accessible by train. Classes and Services: Trains offer different classes, and almost all have a bar on board. It is common for passengers to go to the bar during the trip, although purchases can also be made from the seat. There are also tourist trains and luxury trains for those looking for a more exclusive travel experience. Popular Destinations on AVE Where does it go? The high-speed train between Barcelona and Madrid is one of the most popular routes and shows how Spain's bullet train connects major cities efficiently. Other accessible destinations include Malaga, Cordoba, and Zaragoza. Follow me if you like to travel ???????? ✈️ ???????? I'm also on /cecisaia and /cecisaia ???? // DISCOUNTS: ????
