Madrid to Pamplona

[Herbert A. Medina]

I asked a question about travel from Madrid to Pamplona earlier this
month and several of you provided train and plane information (thank
you), but there was a lack of bus information. I did some more asking
and calling and have some bus information. Below I am including all
the information that I have been able to find about getting from
Madrid to Pamplona.
