According to forum posts, for traveling to Pamplona for the San Fermin festival, many users suggest considering various modes of transportation such as buses, trains, and flights, depending on your starting location. For instance, travelers coming from Miami were advised to fly to Madrid and then take a train or coach to Pamplona.

Some travelers suggested staying in nearby cities like Zaragoza or Logroño to save on costs, as accommodations in Pamplona can be expensive during the festival dates. Tudela was also mentioned as a good option due to its excellent train and bus connections to Pamplona.

For a good view of the Running of the Bulls, forum posts indicated that securing a balcony is ideal. However, if you prefer not to pay for a balcony spot, arriving early to secure a street-level spot is necessary, but it comes with the risk of crowds and potential injury.

According to forum posts, bus services are frequently mentioned as a viable option for traveling to and from Pamplona. The BURUNDESA bus company operates routes from Pamplona to nearby locations such as Sorauren, and La Burundesa offers services from Pamplona to Bilbao. Additionally, travelers can use bus services like Lurraldebus for local routes between Irun and Hondarribia.

Some travelers have discussed train services for long-distance travel, such as direct trains from Madrid to Pamplona, which are operated by Renfe. For air travel, travelers need to connect through cities like Bilbao, as Pamplona does not have its own major airport.

For short distances within the region or from nearby towns, users have also mentioned the option of taxis, which is a common choice for direct and convenient travel. Rental cars are another option for more flexible travel plans, especially when public transport schedules do not fit personal schedules.
