Getting there
Planes, trains, automobiles, or maybe even helicopter – we tell you the best way to go.
- Planes
- The region’s biggest airport is Jerez, though Seville San Pablo isn’t too far away. There are regular buses from Jerez airport, eight kilometres outside the city, into the centre, while the M-050 and M-051 services take you into Cadiz in an hour and a quarter.
- Trains
- Spain’s speedy AVE trains will get you from Madrid or Malaga to Seville (both journeys take two and a half hours. After that, you’ll need to use Andalucia’s unreliable local train network (www.renfe.es) or take a connecting bus into Cadiz Province. A high-speed rail link between Jerez and Cadiz is planned for 2012.
- Automobiles
- A car is a must if you want to escape into the mountains or explore the beautiful Andalucian countryside. If you pick one up at Jerez or Seville airports, you’ll need to take the A4 south, which passes through Jerez, Tarifa and Cadiz.
