    Default Bus companies other than ALSA

    Hi,
    Just wondering if anyone knew of any bus companies other than ALSA operating out of Santander going to Sahagun or Leon.
    Thanks

    If ALSA go to where you need to go, why look for another company??

    I have used ALSA many times for long haul trips like Santiago to Leon and Santiago to Madrid. They are very good, reasonably priced, run on time and you can buy tickets on-line, reserve your seat and print out your ticket at home.

    Their Supra service is excellent, although it costs about 40% more than the regular coach fare, the coaches very comfy, and the stewardess serves coffee and soft drinks at regular intervals.

    I have also previously used ALSA and could not fault the service. However this time the timetable just doesn't suit (Sorry should have explained this).

    We will arrive too late for the morning bus and would be waiting all day to catch a bus and I just wondered if anyone was aware of an alternative bus company operating to Sahagun or vicinty as I could not source anything online.

    Hi

    I had a look but I can't identify any other bus companies going to Sahagun from Santander. However, if you get to Leon you can get another bus from there or a train. Santander to Leon is a frequent bus route and Leon to Sahagun on the train has 11 trains a day (I think it's on the main Madrid line). Renfe for trains.

    Regards
