Spain to offer free rail travel in popular holiday hotspots as cost of living rises

Spain is set to offer free rail travel to holidaymakers and locals to help people as the cost of living rises.

If you're heading to Spain in the next coming months, you'll be happy to know that travelling around popular regions is set to become cheaper from September to the rest of the year. Tourists will be able to take advantage of the scheme if they want to travel around Catalonia, Andalucía, and the Basque region.

This comes as the cost of living is rising, not only in the UK, but around Europe, and Spain socialist-led Government has confirmed that from September 1 until the end of 2022, train journeys in certain parts of the country will be free. Along with that, there will be a 30 per cent discount across all public transport in Spain including metros, buses, and trams.
