    barcelona to madrid by alsa bus 19 august 2015

    www.facebook.com/thisisspain but it's 3am in Spain. I'd suggest that you contacted AlSA via their FB page and ask them to price-match

    There is 18 euro per person on the 23.00 journey. Nothing less

    barcelona to madrid by alsa bus 19 august 2015

    Well, you did not state the time on the original post That is an overnight trip in August. Impossible to think of a more expensive journey other than Semana Santa See screenshot

    barcelona to madrid by alsa bus 19 august 2015

    You can get them from as little as 12 euros for that day. I have just checked on www.ALSA.es

    New ALSA website

    I'd like to think it was ....but it's ALSA and if you transposed two numbers by mistake? Just saying, jeje

    New ALSA website

    So, let's do this nice and simple. Why would you not want to give it? Are you aware that it is the law of Spain that you carry photo ID on you at all times? Yes, whether you are a Spanish citizen of from Timbuktu you can be asked for it by any member of the police. I don't see your problem.

    New ALSA website

    ....and its partner is Llegada ....... arrival (Their verbs salir and llegar) Feliz domingo and mucha suerte with your Spanish.

    New ALSA website

    I disagree. The ALSA site should be accurate. No reason not to be but I would not be worrying about it yet. There is a special offer on the Madrid Centre fare at just 16 euros It is 31,50 from the airport. I would not try to save a tenner, personally! On the next morning, there are two options...

    New ALSA website

    Pretty much my thoughts! Shame as the services are normally reliable and reasonably priced. As with many things Spanish, the marketing lets them down!

    New ALSA website

    Salida means "exit" in Spanish In other words ..... departs Give me your date and I will have a look if you wish

    New ALSA website

    ALSA have today launched an updated website. I live in Spain, do not drive and there is no sensible RENFE route so it's ALSA or BlaBla car. Whilst ALSA services are usually excellent, their old website was a nightmare. BUT SO FAR it does look a big improvement with international routes...

    ALSA Ticket from abroad

    I was just going to comment on ALSA when I saw this. I am a VERY frequent traveller with ALSA. I live in Spain, do not drive and there is no sensible RENFE route. Their services are usually excellent. Their old website is a nightmare. BUT today they launched an updated site and SO FAR it does...

    Air control strike in June in Spain

    ....and if it is anything like most of the other ones they have announced they won't go ahead. No use worrying. Nothing we can do.

    Ease of getting to SJPdP

    Huge amount of great information. THANKS ...... but I MUST take issue on this "b. Air France bus from CDG airport direct to Paris Orly airport. Allow 1:15 hours." I would say from personal experience ....... Allow 2 hours MINIMUM ......and I'd be happier suggesting two and a half hours...

    Nashville to Santiago!

    Gracias ..... is the most beautiful word in the Spanish language. You can use it often and say it with a smile. It will take you a long way! Buen Camino

    Join me on a virtual camino walk this summer?

    Sounds a great idea.... I have to say that as I have been meaning to do it. I have just today finished a 90 day virtual tour of Spain and would love to set out again. http://thisisspain.info/90-days/ Check recent posts also as a French pilgrim has a similar idea. Five years ago I did a day...

    Warning: Improper behavior reported between Astorga and Rabanal

    Yes, Reb ..... you have put it better than in several of my diatribes! Enjoy your day - mine is special. It's 5 years to the day since I set out on a 5000km cycle ride. I was left for dead by a hit and run driver (4 hours unconscious in a ditch) lost my entire life's possessions in the...

    A Virtual Camino?

    OK, thanks for tidying. Yes, Steve Hall - guilty as charged! In 6 years nobody had pointed out the "er" This was it. I started 5 years ago today, this very day! www.theshirt2010.co.uk I'd like to do it all again but my health is telling me that I would be a liability to myself and others...
