I landed in Madrid on May 29, 2013 at 7:45 AM from the United States. We had plenty of time to get to the bus ticket counter and get our bus tickets for Pamplona. We took the 10:45 AM bus to Pamplona. On the bus my son and I met 3 other people wanting to go to St. Jean. All 5 of us rode in one...
Re: train from Madrid to Pamplona
Thank you very much. I have a lot more confidence that taking the bus to Pamplona is the right thing to do. I'll buy tickets and take the bus from T4 at the Madrid airport. Seems to make the most sense.
I'll post for ride share from Pamplona to St. Jean for May...
Re: train from Madrid to Pamplona
Would you get the bus tickets online from ALSA or wait until I've arrived at the airport in Madrid?
I believe the first bus leaves at 10:40 and doesn't arrive in Pamplona until 15:30. I'd love to ride share from Pamplona to St. Jean.
My son and I arrive at the Madrid airport 7:40 A.M. May 29. I believe the best way to get to St. Jean would be take RENFE train from Atocha station leaving 11:35 A.M. for 17.65 E arriving Pamplona 14:40. Then I ride share to St. Jean. Is this correct? The bus from Madrid takes longer and costs more.
