Taxi
A taxi from Barajas Internacional Airport usually takes about 20 minutes to arrive and can cost between 18 € – 25 € depending on the traffic. Although the majority of taxis are honest professionals please be warned that sometimes you may be charged a extremely high price or may be taken to places that pay the driver a comission.
