By air
A few km from the Circuit, Manises International Airport has an important network that connects Valencia with the most important Spanish and international airports. See skyscanner.net or kayak.com for further information about schedules and airlines. Travel to the city centre is then just a short journey by taxi and usually costs around 20 EUR. We can of course organise airport pickups.
When planning your travel, consider flights to Alicante (closest), Madrid, or Barcelona. The train network is so good that it is a simple 3 hr transfer from Madrid for example.

Getting around the city
Valencia city centre is spectacular and definitely worth a visit. Our Classic and Superior hotels are walking distance to the city centre (c. 40 minutes) however the metro is fast and cheap; and both these hotels have very nearby metro stations. Taxis are not too expensive but you can wait a while for one!
Valentaxi is a small but very reliable firm: +34 675 988 675

Getting to the track
If you are driving, be warned that the main car parks close to the track fill up VERY early - you are likely to end up with a several mile walk. Our VIP and hospitality customers can request a VIP parking pass from us.
It is possible to take a train from Valencia centre direct to Cheste, with just a 10 minute walk to the circuit. The trains can get very crowded however; but are very inexpensive.

Of course, Pole Position package customers benefit from the usual air-conditioned luxury coach transfers. Coaches are also given priority at Ricardo Tormo and despite the huge attendance, the journey times are excellent. If you are a ticketholder of ours, you can enquire near the race if we have space available in any of our coaches.
