Hi all

I'm looking for advice on getting from Madrid to Seville. My Ryanair flight from Glasgow arrives Madrid around 12:40 in the afternoon. This will be mid-September (i know i'm planning ahead...). Thanks in advance :)

Would you advise the best (i define "best" as being the least hassle/ easiest / not necessarily the cheapest) way to be:-
  1. Fly Madrid to Seville
  2. Train Madrid to Seville
  3. Bus Madrid to Seville
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
You're not too early in your planning at all, I'm in my second year planning for the VDLP.

I know this might be a little bit more expensive than a Ryan Air flight but is it not possible to fly from Glasgow to Savilla? If it's not an option then tale Ivar's advice and use the train.

Hi @Waka no, i can't find any direct flights to Sevilla from Glasgow which is a shame. Glasgow is best for me to fly from as i live in a very remote area of Scotland and it takes me a day to get to Glasgow then an overnight in a hotel before leaving next day.

The high speed train sounds like my best bet then!

Funnily enough i'll be travelling through Sevilla tomorrow (by car) as i've been holidaying in southern Spain - it would have been good to start my camino now (apart from the amount of rain there has been here in Andalusia over the last month!) but work commitments mean i can't return until later in the year.

Enjoy your VdlP when you go Waka, buen camino :)
 
The train trip is fast, comfortable and pleasant with none of the Ryanair nonsense.
