Driver was sitting in the bus checking the tickets and it was not clear when the luggage were put in the trunk. The driver looked a bit frustrated when people started to ask him about it. He then came out and helped people, which was fine.
The first Avanza driver I spoke to was rude. However when my bus arrived the driver was cheerful and helpful, the reason we were late was because he was helping a passenger.
Difficult to write a review of a bus company. The buses run, mostly on time, the staff do a good job and are mostly friendly. An Avanza bus is without doubt value for money. I'm going to be traveling every other day Estepona-Malaga-Estepona for the next three, maybe four, weeks to visit my wife who is in a hospital. Avanza makes the frequency possible.
Definitely recommend using Avanza from the airport to Estepona. I had an hour between the flight landing and the bus leaving which was ample time. I would recommend booking in advance though as the bus was full.
We travelled from Malaga bus station to Estepona on the 'express' service which took just over an hour with one stop at Marbella. Our train arrived 25 minutes late at MZ station and we just missed the bus we were originally booked onto. The Avanza employee in the ticket office helpfully changed our ticket without further cost to the next bus so we were very happy!
It would have been nice if the driver helped load my cases. And I was disappointed that there was no wi-fi as I had been expecting. Otherwise service was good.
