Hi,

I've searched around this forum and have tried to find an answer for this question. There seems to be some different advices of how to get from madrid to SJPP the easiest way.. but what I wonder is if I have to book anything in advance? I think maybe I'll take the train to Hendaye, but in Hendaye, can I just take the bus or train, or does this one has to be booked? Or if I go to Pamplona, I'm afraid I won't find a bus or train and won't find a place to stay the night haha.. And if I have booked anything in advance I'm afraid I won't manage to catch all the buses or trains.. well I'm kind of worried about this as you can see :)
It seems rather tricky to get from Madrid to SJPP.. but I have no choice since the tickets to Madrid is booked, and I'm gonna visit some friends over there.
I would like it to be as cheap and as easy is possible.. if that even is possible ;) I'm arriving to Madrid on june 16th btw.
