Express services are best — much quicker, fewer stops.

Just go to the bus station and buy your tickets. There's usually a bus waiting for passengers. Just get on it, unless you'd rather wait for the next one so you can pick your seats.

Just make sure you get there at least an hour before departure, and avoid traveling on weekends and in peak season.

Remember “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade”? You need to take a leap of faith. Either there'll be a seat or you'll be on the next bus. I took it years ago. I've gotten lazy in my old age and just hire drivers now.
