Look out for landmarks like the majestic Picos de Europa in the distance, providing a breathtaking backdrop that shifts as you travel.
For a smoother ride, aim to avoid rush hour traffic, particularly on weekdays when locals are commuting. Upon arrival at the airport, pick up your driver at the designated area just outside the arrivals hall, where they’ll be waiting with a sign.
