Departure bus station: Seville Plaza De Armas is located in the Old Town of Seville near the river and offers a number of modern facilities, including an information desk, ATMS, shops, and a large cafeteria all on the upper floor. Positioned just over a mile (about 2 km) from the city center, you'll want to take the C4 Interior bus to reach downtown Seville (about a 4min ride). To get to the station from the city center by taxi, simply ask for the bus station on Avenida Cristo de la Expiratión. If you come by bicycle, there are also places on the ground floor to secure your bike while you travel. It's recommended that all bus passengers arrive at the station at least 2h before departure for a smooth check-in and loading experience.

Arrival bus station: Granada Estación De Autobús is located on Avenida Juan Pablo II in the north of Granada, about 2 miles (3 km) from the city center. Once you arrive at the station, you can reach the city center by taking the Línea Capacidad Alta bus and transferring onto either the SN1 or SN2 buses. It’s important to remember that the main bus from the station does not pass through the city center, so be sure to make a transfer onto one of the SN buses if that is your destination! Hailing a taxi might be a bit easier, but either way, allow for about 20min for travel time to the city center. The Granada bus station offers modern facilities, including a restaurant and bar, and don’t forget to stop by the Tourist Office before leaving the bus station, as you’ll want to take in all that this amazing city has to offer!

This bus station is right in the center of town and is a way point from which many bus travelers continue on to destinations throughout greater Spain and even internationally, for example, to cities in Portugal. While very few Alsa buses travel from Seville to Santa Fe Granada each week, some routes are available for those travelers who wish to head east from Seville but perhaps will then continue on to destinations in other parts of Spain or beyond.
