short distances. Outside of the major cities bus travel is often
the only option and the rural networks are extensive.
Within cities
like Barcelona or Madrid bus travel can be an ideal way to explore
- it is inexpensive, the routes are extensive and although slower
than the metro you get to see where you are going. The bus companies
in each city have pamphlets with information on routes, timetables
and prices.

Intercity
Bus Travel
Although the
networks are extensive, intercity bus travel in Spain can be confusing
because there are dozens of companies that serve literally thousands
of routes. To buy a ticket for long distance, inter-regional travel,
go to the bus station. Otherwise some companies now sell tickets
online. In the big cities there may be several coach stations operating
different routes.
