Before you book, this may help
- Guadalajara city and Alcalá de Henares in a day from Madrid without a car: the Infantado palace, the Pantheon, the university town and how to link them
You get there by Cercanías: line C-2 links Atocha and Chamartín with Alcalá de Henares and Guadalajara, so the logical plan is to get off in one city in the morning and the other in the afternoon.
- Guadalajara's festivals: the September fair, the Tenorio Mendocino, Holy Week in Sigüenza and the Ducal Festival of Pastrana, and how to get around on those days
Guadalajara's fair and festival are in September and fill the old town and the fairground for over a week; the Tenorio Mendocino is performed at the end of October through the old-town streets and palaces, with the centre closed; Holy Week in Sigüenza fills a small city with few trains; and the Ducal Festival of Pastrana, in July, turns a village with no public transport into a Renaissance market.
- Driving a private hire car in Guadalajara: the Henares corridor half an hour from Barajas, which jobs reach your phone, what paperwork you need and how you get paid
In Guadalajara the typical job is short and frequent: the Henares corridor is half an hour from Barajas along the A-2 and the M-14, without entering Madrid, and the capital a little more.
