Before you book, this may help
- Cuenca to Valencia and Albacete: the AVE from Fernando Zóbel or a door-to-door car with driver along the A-3 and A-31, with beach, hospitals, university and luggage
Cuenca has two big cities within reach to the east and south, Valencia and Albacete, and two ways to get there: the AVE from Cuenca-Fernando Zóbel, which reaches Valencia Joaquín Sorolla in a little over fifty minutes and Albacete in around half an hour, or a car with driver from your front door, along the A-3 to Valencia and the N-320 or A-31 to Albacete.
- La Manchuela and Motilla del Palancar to Valencia along the A-3: Manises airport, Joaquín Sorolla station, the Requena-Utiel high-speed stop and when Barajas still pays off
La Manchuela in Cuenca lies on the Valencian side of the province: Motilla del Palancar is where the A-3 crosses the N-320 and from there Valencia is down the motorway through Minglanilla, Utiel and Requena, with Manises airport at an exit before the city.
- Driving a private hire car in Cuenca: a province with no conventional railway, the Fernando Zóbel station seven kilometres out, Barajas or Manises depending on the district, and how each job arrives and is paid
Cuenca is the province where the car with a driver replaces a train that no longer exists: the conventional line closed and the only station is the Fernando Zóbel high-speed station, seven kilometres from the city with no rail link, so every village of the Serranía, the Alcarria and the Mancha conquense reaches it by car.
