ALSA may not show the schedule until May 1.ÂżCĂłmo llegar?
Se trata de una ruta que une Pamplona con la localidad francesa de Saint Jean de Pied de Port. Las salidas sarán a las 14:00. En Semana Santa se pondrá en funcionamiento este servicio del 22/3 hasta el 7/4 y posteriormente se retomará su funcionamiento desde el 1/5 hasta el 1/11. El servicio se ha diseñado para poder atender al mayor número de viajeros posible, ya que enlaza con los autobuses que proceden tanto de Madrid y Soria (a primera hora de la mañana), de Barcelona y Zaragoza (en el primer servicio disponible), como los procedentes de San Sebastián.

I've already checked them all and because its Sunday, and the arrival time of my flight into Bilbao, there is no combination of bus or train that works via Irun to SJpp on that day.
I have emailed Caroline to see if she can pick me up in Irun where I get in at 16.30.

The train goes direct from Pamplona to Irun/Hendaye ... I checked 17 April and there are two trains that day.
At Irun/Hendaye you cross the border on foot because Spain and France have different railway gauges. Then you catch the train from Hendaye to Gare Bayonne and Gare Bayonne to SJPdP.

I've not done this and so do not know exactly how the crossing between Spain and France works.
Hi, How does one get from the train station to the bus station? Are they in the same building or close by? I was planning on catching the train from Madrid to Pamplona then a taxi to SJPDP but bus would be a cheaper option.The bus company Conda has been providing a bus route from Pamplona to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port for more than one year, but there was only one bus per day at 14.00 PM. Because of the increased demand they introduced two new bus lines every day, so there are 3 buses from Pamplona to SJPdP daily (including sundays!!!). The buses leave Pamplona (from the main bus station) at:
8:00 (16/07 - 31/08)
14:00 (22/03 - 01/11)
17:30 (01/06 - 30/09)
It costs: 20 EUR

Thanks sriyantra
Sriyantra,
The train station is about 2 k from the bus station. Google maps suggests this walking route. Estimated time to walk from is 38 minutes.
Buen Camino,
