Six of us are headed from Madrid to San Sebastian on June 17. Rome2Rio shows possible transportation options for us. We can go by:
- train - ALV (R2R uses the ALV acronym -- not sure if it should be AVE or if they mean Avlo) - just over 6 hours for $49 each or so...
- bus - about 5.5 hours for between $65 and $100 each...
- fly, and the total travel time (Madrid accommodation to airport exit door is about 4 hours -- but I can't get Iberia to give me a price.
I prefer riding the trains, and traveling via train seems like it's in our favor, thought tickets for the route on June 17 are not yet available.
Have you made this trip? What were your experiences? Any other thoughts or advice?
Thanks.
