Entry to the city where Cervantes was born costs less than you might imagine: the taxi from Madrid to Alcalá de Henares starts from €53, the most affordable intercity transfer we offer. It is 34 kilometres along the A-2, dealt with in just over half an hour — enough to land you right on Calle Mayor with the whole day ahead of you.

Few capitals in the world have a World Heritage city half an hour away by taxi, and Madrid is one of them: Alcalá de Henares has held the UNESCO title since 1998, thanks to its university and historic precinct. Arriving by taxi makes that closeness count: pickup at your accommodation, a short stretch of motorway and a drop-off right in the heart of the old town, with no stations in between.

The visit almost organises itself: the façade of the University of Alcalá as a starting point, the Casa Natal de Cervantes with the much-photographed bench of Don Quixote and Sancho outside, the Catedral Magistral, and the Corral de Comedias looking onto the square. Between stops, the arcades of Calle Mayor are made for tapas, and the caramelised almonds from the Poor Clares' convent are the obligatory edible souvenir.

Who makes the best use of this transfer? Visitors based in Madrid after a half-day excursion with no early alarm; families accompanying prospective students to see the university; and anyone celebrating in Alcalá — weddings, graduations — who would rather travel there and back without a car to worry about.

On a 35-minute journey, the meter and a fixed fare would not be far apart... on a perfect day. The difference appears on the imperfect days, which are more common — tailbacks on the A-2, rain, rush hour. With a fixed fare from €53 per vehicle, the imperfect day is absorbed by the driver and your budget stays intact. Booking the return at the same time rounds the plan off nicely.
