How Far in Advance Can I Buy Bus Tickets?

I will be going from Sevilla to Ronda in November and plan on using Los Amarillos. How far in advance can I buy tix on the web? Or should I just get them when we get to Sevilla? (We have 3 days in Sevilla)

We will also take an Alsa bus from Granada to Cordoba. How far in advance can I get those tickets? We only have an afternoon, overnight, and morning in Granada. I am concerned that buying the ticket the day before might be too late??

Thank you!

We have always bought our tickets within the hour before we got on the bus. Never had a problem. Buying when you arrive in the city should be more than adequate. The one ticket you do need to get well in advance is the Alhambra if you are going to see that in Granada.

We took the bus from Seville to Ronda and purchased our tickets the day before. We also took the Alsa bus from Granada to Cordoba and, as there were four of us, decided to purchase our tickets online before departing Australia. I'm not 100% certain but I think we could only purchase tickets up to two months in advance.

You can buy tickets for the excellent ALSA bus service from Granada to Córdoba at least a month in advance. Perhaps consider paying 2€ more for going with a Supra Economy bus, more space, some extra services and a bit faster than the regular and perfectly fine ALSA buses.
