Watch out · Fly

Direct flights are rare, so expect at least one layover, often in Madrid, Barcelona, London, or other major European hubs. Always check baggage allowances, especially with budget airlines.

Watch out · Drive

This is a multi-day journey involving a long drive through Spain and France, plus a significant ferry crossing (e.g., from Santander/Bilbao to Rosslare/Cork, or via the UK). Factor in accommodation costs, tolls, and potentially different driving rules across countries.
