Purchasing train tickets for Spain
 
I'm a first timer with train travel.

I can't figure out how to purchase tickets from www.renfe.es - the English site. It works on the Spanish site. Any suggestions?

Are there better/similar deals at other websites for train point-to-point travelling within Spain? Can I also reserve seats ahead of time online?

Click on the &quot;Tiknet&quot; logo first and <b> then </b> click on the English version.

Generally you can only reserve tickets 60 days ahead abd if you are ordering using a credit card you have to register and pay for the FIRST set of tickets ordered with the card and then appear <b> in person </b> to collect those tickets before you can order others. The box that pops up will explain that procedure.

OK..I'll top it again for you..perhaps someone else will give you a better answer.

Thanks Intrepid1 for clarifying the Tiknet logo part. I kept clicking on the flag right away and led me to another site.

Now are there alternate sites with better deals, where I would be able to have the option to reserve the seats?
