Socibus Córdoba Madrid recent customer reviews

Great, we stopped one halfway to use the toilet or get food. No complaints, besides it was a bit late (30 min.)

The driver was friendly and tried to help even though we spoke English. We were under the impression that we would be taken directly to the airport. When we had to switch buses at the bus station it was difficult because our Spanish wasn’t good enough to be understood. We did finally get on the correct bus and make it to the airport. I would suggest this trip would be better for fluent Spanish speakers.
