Private transfers between Barajas and central Madrid
Getting into Madrid from Barajas airport can be an uncomfortable experience when you are travelling as a group. Taxi queues, changing metro lines with suitcases and a lack of coordination lead many groups to choose a private minibus transfer. Torres Bus provides this service with drivers who know the Barajas to central Madrid route inside out.
Our drivers track your flight in real time. If there is a delay, the vehicle automatically adjusts its arrival time. This avoids unnecessary waiting and means the group can board the minibus as soon as they have collected their luggage.
Pick-up service at all Barajas terminals
Madrid-Barajas airport has four terminals: T1, T2, T3 and T4. Torres Bus offers pick-ups at all of them, with clearly signposted meeting points. Your driver will wait with a name sign in the arrivals area, so the group can find them straight away.
Terminals and usual pick-up areas
Terminal T4 and T4S, the most used for intercontinental and long-haul flights. Terminals T1, T2 and T3 for European, domestic and low-cost flights. In every case the driver confirms the exact meeting point by message before your flight.
Vehicle capacity for airport groups
The size of the group will determine the most suitable vehicle. For groups of up to 7 people with plenty of luggage we recommend the 12-seat minibus, which has enough hold space for large suitcases. Groups of between 9 and 20 people can opt for the 25-seat minibus with extra luggage capacity. For larger groups we have coaches with high-capacity luggage holds.
Capacity options for your airport transfer
8-12-seat minibus for families and small groups. 16-19-seat minibus for medium-sized groups with lots of luggage. 25-seat microbus for large groups needing extra luggage space. 50, 59 and 70-seat coaches for large delegations or sports teams.
Fixed prices with no traffic or time-of-day surcharges
One of the things our customers value most is our fixed-price policy. The agreed quote does not change because of congestion on the M-30, rush hour or alternative routes. This is especially important for corporate groups who need to keep precise control of their travel budget.
