Price calculated. Change the date or destination if you like.
A private transfer from Madrid Barajas Airport (MAD) to Madrid city centre costs €55 per car for 1–3 passengers and €70 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 26 km; the drive takes about 25 min with clear roads, so plan on 25–35 min at busy times.
Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the terminal where your flight lands (T1, T2, T3 or T4), after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, with a sign showing your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.
Barajas lies about 13 km north-east of the centre, and the road in is the M-11 and the M-30 ring, entering via Paseo de la Castellana or Calle de Alcalá. Morning and evening peaks slow the M-30 and the Castellana. The old centre is a low-emission zone, and some streets around Plaza Mayor and the Barrio de las Letras are pedestrian, so the driver stops at the nearest permitted street. A Metro airport supplement applies on Line 8.
Madrid's centre is organised around a few squares. Puerta del Sol and the Gran Vía are the busy commercial core, Plaza Mayor and the Royal Palace stand in the old Habsburg quarter, and the Paseo del Prado leads past the Prado Museum to Atocha station and the Retiro Park. North of the Gran Vía are Malasaña and Chueca, while Salamanca is the upmarket shopping district to the east. Most areas are within a short metro ride of each other. Summer is hot and quieter in August, when many locals leave the city.
Public transport instead: Metro de Madrid metro Line 8 from Aeropuerto T1-T2-T3 / T4 to Nuevos Ministerios (change to Lines 6, 10), about 06:00 to 01:30. Renfe Cercanías train C-1 from Aeropuerto T4 to Atocha / Chamartín — about 25 min, regular.
