Dear SL,
Thank you for your message. You can find any information you’re looking for about available bus routes, timetables and station information by using the CheckMyBus search engine. All you need to do is enter your city of departure and destination city, and then you can filter the results by price, duration, time as well as arrival and departure stations.
1. For a bus connection to Cambridge, the nearest coach station to Covent Garden appears to be London Stratford, which can be reached in about 28 minutes from London Stratford via local transport.
2. On average, transportation between London and Cambridge is about an hour and a half.
3. You can find all available results for intercity buses by using our search engine and filtering the results by time of departure on the left side to see which buses are available on a given day. Some bus companies even offer the option for a “flexible ticket” which lets you use it for any time during a 24 hour window.
4. You can book tickets in London 3 to 4 days prior to your trip
5. You can generally book your tickets at the coach station, however we generally suggest booking online for the best prices.
6. While there are no intercity coaches travelling directly from Covent Gardens in our system at this time, there are coaches which depart to Oxford, Southampton and from Oxford to Edinburgh, which can all be found in our search engine.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch with us again.

Hello,
I am trying to find the cost of a fare for 2 people,
On 3/6/19 returning 12/6/19 from Salou to Peniscola and Peniscola to Salou.
The search returns no journeys available why is that please?
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear Stephen,
Thank you for your message. Some bus companies like Hife, which offers this connection, only allow you to book your tickets up to a month or so in advance, so you might have to wait until the beginning of April to book your tickets for the route, and if this doesn’t work, keep trying until you can book. If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch with us again.

I am looking for a bus or coach from Edinburgh after the tattoo back to Stirling Scotland.
But your dates don’t yet reach August this year 2019.
When will those dates be released please.
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear Mitchell,
Thank you for your message. Please note that some coach companies only allow passengers to book two or three months in advance, so it can take some time before you’ll be able to book a trip for August. In May or June, you should be able to book without a problem. If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch with us again.
