The most recommended route for most travelers is taking the A-42 from Madrid (duration: 1 hour). This highway is well-equipped for traffic and offers the quickest and most comfortable way to reach Toledo, avoiding the congestion of the city’s busiest streets. Additionally, it's a toll-free road, meaning no extra charges. Once in the city, the signage is clear and easy to follow, guiding you straight to the historic center.

Additional tip: Parking in Toledo

The historic center of Toledo is restricted to "non-residents," so you won’t be able to drive directly into the old town, except for the main streets. However, there are several parking lots available on the outskirts, with the closest ones located near the city walls.
