By bus<\/h2>\n
San Sebastian’s prime location along the northern coast of Spain just below the French border gives it easy access to other parts of Spain and Europe by bus. The most prolific bus company with links to the city is Alsa<\/a>, but you can also find routes on Conda<\/a> and Vibasa<\/a> buses.<\/p>\n Arriving in San Sebastian by bus is often the cheapest option when it comes to public transportation. San Sebastian has direct bus links with several major cities in the region, such as Bilbao, Vitoria-Gasteiz and Pamplona. Taking the bus from one of these nearby cities takes less than two hours and will set you back less than \u20ac10. If you prefer the scenic route, you can also arrive here by bus from Madrid and Barcelona. Be aware that these trips can last between six and seven hours, but usually cost between \u20ac30 and \u20ac40.<\/p>\n San Sebastian’s bus station is located at Paseo Federico Garc\u00eda Lorca, 1. From there, you can take one of the local DBUS<\/a> lines to get to wherever you need to be in the city.<\/p>\n Train travel is a popular choice due to its comfort and speed. Arriving in San Sebastian by train is easy and efficient, with dozens of long-distance and suburban trains arriving at Estaci\u00f3n del Norte (Paseo de Francia, 22)<\/em>\u00a0every day.<\/p>\n Spain’s national railway service, Renfe<\/a>, provides comfortable trains with direct links to San Sebastian from large cities such as Madrid and Barcelona, as well as cities and towns within the region. Trains from Madrid and most other cities north of it will usually cost less than \u20ac50.<\/p>\n Currently, San Sebastian is only accessible via Renfe’s\u00a0media distancia\u00a0<\/em>and Alvia trains. There are future plans to include the city on Spain’s vast network of high-speed AVE trains, with construction of a new AVE train station<\/a> scheduled to begin in late 2019.<\/p>\n Arriving in San Sebastian by plane couldn’t be easier! There are four airports within 100 km of the city. The most obvious choice would be San Sebastian Airport itself, just 20 km from the city center. Flights arrive here regularly from Madrid and Barcelona. When you arrive, you can reach the city center via the airport shuttle bus<\/a>.<\/p>\n Found a better deal on a flight to a nearby city? No problem. The airports in Bilbao and Biarritz<\/a> (France) both have direct buses that go to San Sebastian. You can also fly into Vitoria-Gasteiz, but be aware that there are no buses to San Sebastian to the airport itself and you’ll have to catch one at the city’s main bus station.<\/p>\n Arriving in San Sebastian is a breeze now that you know your options!
