Before you book, this may help
- From Zamora to Santiago, Vigo, Salamanca, León, Palencia and Atocha: train, coach or a car with a driver
From Zamora the train handles Santiago de Compostela well, with direct high-speed services on the Galicia line, and Madrid, although trains arrive at Chamartín and Atocha needs a connection.
- Benavente and Los Valles, where the A-6, A-52 and A-66 meet: how to get to Madrid and Barajas without a train, when Valladolid airport pays off and what a car with a driver solves
Benavente lives off its motorways: the A-6 from Madrid to Galicia, the A-52 towards Ourense and Vigo and the A-66 between León and Salamanca meet in the town, which is why thousands of through travellers stop there.
- Driving a private hire car in Zamora: the high-speed station, the A-6 to Barajas, the Benavente junction and Sanabria, and the method and variables for knowing whether a job pays
Zamora is a large, ageing province that people pass through, and for a driver that means few urban jobs and many kilometres: the link between the villages and Zamora station, the only one in the province with frequent high-speed trains, appointments at the Virgen de la Concha hospital from Sanabria, Aliste and Sayago, the Benavente junction, where the A-6, A-52 and A-66 leave travellers without a train, and Barajas along the A-6.
