Practical tips

Granada has one main train station (Granada train station) and one main coach station (Estación de Autobuses de Granada). Always double-check your ticket to confirm your exact departure point to avoid confusion.

Both trains and coaches have baggage allowances. Travelling with less luggage makes boarding and disembarking smoother, especially if you have to navigate busy stations. Check specific limits with your chosen operator.
Aim to arrive at the station at least 20-30 minutes before your scheduled departure, particularly for trains. This allows ample time for finding your platform and boarding without rush.
