Valladolid Transportation

The airport is fairly close (10km) to the city and once inside the terminal, there is a bus-ticket counter in the main hall where you can book a coach to the city centre (th cost is about three Euros for adul single), the end of the journey is at the modern main bus station in the south of the city. You can also take a taxi which would be around 20 euro.

Once in Valladolid, there is a taxi rank at the city coach station should you need onward transport. otherwise it is a very pleasant 10-15 walk through the Campo Grande park to the Plaza Zorrilla, the second focal point of the city after the Plaza Mayor, which lies a five-minute walk further on up the Calle Santiago.

Valladolid train station gives you acces to other parts of the region, Spain or even to Portugal. Its easy to go to Salamanca or Burgos, the journey however takes almost two hours. Check out the timetables, because there are not so many trains running.

Auvasa is the local bus company of Valladolid. The busses are taking you everywhere in and aruond the city. They are most of the time, on time and not even expensive. They are also very friendly for the enviroment, most busses are driving on natural gas.

Thanks to Ryanair I was able to visit Valladolid. A year ago I had never heard about Valladolid. There are daily flights from Brussels South (Charleroi) and from London to Valladolid. From Valladolid you can easy explore the region and visit other places like Salamanca and Burgos.

Recently RyanAir have started flying to Valladolid. It is worth being aware that the airport is called Villanubla which loosely translated means Cloudy/Foggy Town.

Occasionally the airport is affected by just such problems and to my knowledge there is currently no fog assisted landing equipment installed there. So check your flights before leaving home.

Valladolid is rather small , or better everything
is reachable within an half an hour walk.
Specially if you got beautifull legs like me. ;-)

But if your tired there are a few taxi stations.
Calle San José (little street near the busstation)
That one was right behind our hotel and
we took a taxi here to the airport.
About 11km , we paid 15 euro. But I think that is a fixed price.

Other Taxis can be found at
-Plaza Zorilla
-Plaza Poniente
-the train station....

Valladolid has got a beautifull
trainstation. ' Estacion del Norte'.
Build in 1891. If you are not going to take
the train and your passing by....have a look
inside. The hall has a beautifull ceiling.

Valladolid houses the national repair
workhouse for trains.
It has excellent connections with other cities..
but you will have to check on the houres.

(In Belgium we are used to have
a train every hour)

Thank God there is 'ryanair'.
I wouldn't be able to fly as much if it wasn't
for this company.
Ok , space for my legs are a bit on the short
site , but I also had that paying 1000 euro
for a seat.

'Ryanair' hasn't got a connection from all their
airports. Very limited at the moment.
We came from 'Brussels-Charleroi' airport.
The airport in Valladolid is located only
11 km from the city center.
Very convenient.
