What is included

The journey

Three and a half hours east on the A-3. A long transfer, but a single fixed price with one driver and no changes — worth comparing against two train tickets plus taxis at both ends if you are travelling with luggage or children.

Arriving at Madrid Airport

Madrid–Barajas has four terminals spread over several kilometres, and T4 sits far enough from T1–T3 that a shuttle bus runs between them. Tell us your terminal when you book and the driver meets you at the right one. Most arrivals head into the centre on the A-2, about twenty minutes outside rush hour.

How long it really takes

Maps says 210 minutes. That is the driving. Door to door from the moment you land is a different number, and it is the one worth planning around.

Realistically, 240 to 285 minutes after landing. If someone is waiting for you, that is the number to give them.

When to book

Booking early costs the same as booking late — the price does not move. What moves is whether there is a car left.

A week aheadJuly, August, Fridays and Saturdays. The busiest arrivals of the year, and a long run like this one is the first to run out.
As soon as you have the flightGroups of five or more. Vans and minibuses go first, always.
Two or three daysLanding between 23:00 and 06:00. Fewer drivers are working.
The day before is fineEverything else. The same morning usually works too.

Cancellation is free until 24 hours before, so booking early costs you nothing if the plan changes.

Before you land

Four terminals, and the shuttle between themT4 opened in 2006 and sits apart from the older T1–T3 block. A free shuttle links them every five minutes, but with luggage it adds twenty minutes. Your driver goes to the terminal you tell us, so the arrivals hall you name matters more here than at most airports.
The M-30 at rush hourBetween 07:30 and 09:30, and again from 18:00 to 20:00, the ring road adds twenty to thirty minutes to almost any journey into the centre. Our price is fixed either way — the meter of a taxi is not.
Spanish VTC licensingEvery driver holds a VTC licence issued by the regional authority. We check the licence and the insurance before a company takes its first ride.
Toledo, Segovia and the day tripsMadrid is the base for two of Spain's best day trips. Toledo is ninety kilometres south, Segovia a similar distance north — both comfortable as a private transfer with a fixed price, and both awkward by public transport with luggage.

FAQ

How long does it take to get from Madrid Airport to Valencia?

About 210 minutes for the 351 km, outside peak traffic. Your driver knows the route and follows the flight, so a delayed landing moves the pick-up rather than costing you the transfer.

How much is a transfer from Madrid Airport to Valencia?

From €507 for up to four passengers, and €765 for a group of five to eight in a van. The price is fixed when you book — tolls and taxes included, nothing added at the end.

What happens if my flight is late?

We track the flight number you give us. The driver waits and adjusts to the actual landing time, with 60 minutes of free waiting after the plane touches down.

Where do I meet the driver at Madrid Airport?

In the arrivals hall after you clear customs. The day before your trip we send you the driver's name, phone number and vehicle, and they contact you with the exact spot.

Can I cancel?

Free up to 24 hours before pick-up, refunded in full and automatically. On many routes you can also book without paying and we only charge the card 48 hours before you travel.
