EUROMED trains – High speed trains that run along the east coast of Spain, traveling from Barcelona to Alicante. These trains offer beautiful Mediterranean views (of course I wasnt on that side of the train 😅) and excellent onboard service. You can adjust your seat to face the direction of travel and enjoy a comfortable ride at a speed of up to 200km/h

There are 2 stations in Valencia so dont get them mixed up! One is Valencia North and the other is this one
A very boxy and modern train station

Trains only departing one way from here as its end of line

The only chairs in the terminal and they were full
Yeap, theres my train
Entrance into the train station
The Renfe ticketing area
The departure boards and the security check in which opens as each train is announced
They dont have any sitting area for people to wait at

When the platform number 7 came up on the board next to my train everyone standing around ran to the security baggage checks and lines were long…

Finally got bags checked and next were the ticket checks

Was looking forward to seeing how this trip was going to be as I upgraded to comfort as it was my longest trip of 3.5hrs

Platform 7 – my sexy nosed train!
Coche 12 was the one closest to us so thats good

Comfort didnt disappoint!

The carriage was massive! So much room and no kids! So no crying or screaming or shouting or groups of soccer kids 🤣
ok, Its gotta be on purpose now 🤣 I swear i think Renfe trainlines is snickering at me… The only train I had the option to upgrade and I chose to upgrade to “comfort”, nice carriage, my own seat… but I still somehow have no windows again!? 🤷🏻‍♀️ how?? I dont know… Hey, at least I get to stare at my jacket for 3.5hrs instead of wearing it! #firstworldproblems
Clean and nice bano better than on a plane
It was literally like being on a plane – if you ordered food when booking the attendant would bring it in a cart like on a flight

A really comfy train ride, was my favourite and loved having my own seat and a half window lol

Arriving deep underground at Sants station
Most of the train got off at Barcelona Sants – line to go on the escalators up
Arriving right back where I started from 4 weeks ago! Just a lot more confident and knowledgable around Spain and traveling around!

Spanish train travel really is amazing! Ive loved every second of it!
