Socibus Madrid Córdoba recent customer reviews

It was beyond my expectation, the bus came quite early and even reach the destination before the estimated time. The bus was so clean and not so cold, which is nice! The driver even let us have a 25 mins break on our way to Cordoba and my dad managed to get a good stretch and his daily coffee fixed!

Maybe it is not in the Spanish culture, but giving each passenger a half litter water bottle would have been nice. I was very thirsty and didn't know the the bus had no water to drink. Everything else was great. Clean, quiet, and smooth driving.
