AVE & Tipping

[Roger Warwick]

Joe,

1. The AVE doesn't travel from Madrid to Segovia, only a regional train. You can catch it at 4 of Madrid's stations: Atocha, Recloteos, Nuevos Ministerios or Chamartin.

2. For general tipping info, I recommend you read the info on this page: http://www.gomadrid.com/practic/currency.html

Hi folks, I have a couple of quick questions that you can hopefully answer:
 
1) If I want to travel from Madrid to Segovia high speed via the AVE, it is my understanding I would pick it up in Chamartin.  Is this correct?  Also, are walk up purchases for the AVE readily available without the need for reservations?
 
2) What is the general tipping and gratuity policy in Madrid?
 
 
Thanks very much.
 
 
Joe
