I know I've already asked this question, but I've been trying to get a sense of the bus schedules so we can plan our itinerary a little better. Neither websites for Los Amarillos or Movelia seem to work for me in terms of letting me know what time the buses from Seville to Ronda depart and alternatively what times the buses from Ronda to Granada depart. Does anyone have any insight into using these websites?
Additionally, does anyone have any information on whether there are lockers at the Jerez bus station for us to lock up our luggage. We were thinking of possibly taking the bus from Seville to Jerez for a bit and then onto Ronda.
The following day we're heading to Granada. Should we take the bus or train?
Thanks so much. This has been the one stressful part of planning this trip.

I found the bus schedule for Sevilla to Ronda on Los Amarillos. Just select "Comprar billetes"

About bus services - I always check (as you are) prior to leaving but also once I arrive I verify the times at the bus station so I don't just show up luggage in tow to purchase my ticket only to find out the schedule on line wasn't accurate. Some websites are very accurate (ie. Alsa) while other companies aren't as good at keeping the information current.
I wasn't able to find any direct bus service from Ronda to Granada. Your best bet is probably the train. I believe it may be quite a scenic journey.
I also found a couple of reliable websites that confirm luggage storage available at the Jerez bus station:
http://www.jerez.es/conoce_jerez/transportes/autobuses_interurbanos/
The tourist office would probably confirm for you if you wanted to double check:

By the way, the train station in Jerez is next to the bus station. If you have time check out the lovely tile work at the train station in the platform area.
CathyM - thanks so much!
Only problem: when I enter the info on Los Amarillos, it tells me that there are no services available between Sevilla and Ronda.
I emailed the Tourist Office in Ronda: informacion@turismoderonda
And they sent me a PDF of bus schedules To/From Ronda. I would attach it here, but I don't think I can.
As for Granada-Ronda, there is no direct bus, only train. When I checked prices last time it was about CDN$25 but I think that could go lower if you catch one of their online deals quickly.
(I'm planning a similar trip)
oops: informacion@turismoderonda.es
Perhaps you are putting in a travel date too far in advance. I put a travel date in for a week from today and was able to see the schedule for the Sevilla to Ronda buses. In any case I wouldn't sweat it. Just go to the bus station when you're in Sevilla and confirm the schedule. There are several every day so there's no need to worry.
Hmmm, we're traveling in less than a month, but I can see that as a possibility. Nonetheless, I will just try to stop by the Seville bus station when we're there and I've also sent an e-mail to the Ronda tourism office.
Sorry - one more question. Where does the train route that goes from Ronda to Granada originate?
No idea. Renfe site does not say.

I was able to see that all 3 MD trains from Ronda to Granada originated in Algeciras.
