As the subject line suggests, I'm looking for some info on buses between Madrid and Almeria. Since many of the bus companies have good websites, I'd be particularly interested if someone out there knows the name of the main carrier between these two cities. Thanks!

In case you still need that information since your post is nearly a month old:

The main carrier is ALMERAYA . At least for covering Almeria-Madrid, so it´s a good guess that ALMERAYA is also the main carrier for Madrid-Almeria.

The buses leave from Madrid, Estacion Sur de Autobuses, 5 times a day. The schedule is as follows:

09:30 15:00 18:30 22:30 24:00

The return fare is €37,-- (more or less), one-way aound €19,--.

It shouldn´t take more than 8 or 9 hours to get to Almeria.

Hope this helps.
