How to get to La Zenia Boulevard without a car?

They do. Or did as I can't see it on Dave's coaches webpage anymore. 10 euro return.
Maybe worth giving them a ring.

I have looked on both websites Rosa's and David's coaches but have never seen a Zenia Boulevard shopping trip, only Murcia and Alicante, unless I missed it.

I emailed Rosa's and they said they don't do it but would do it, if 20 to 25 people want it on a certain day, as a one off. Personally I don't think that would work very well, as it needs to be organised in advance and 20 to 25 people have to all want to go on the same day and book in advance.

I will email David's Coaches and see if they have thought about doing it. I am sure a coach, maybe even just once a month, would be popular and then if it goes well they could do it more often. David's and Rosa's coaches both pick up in two places in Quesada, the arches and Consum supermarket, as well as other places, which would be ideal.

It was on one of Dave's coaches flyers that they hand out. I'm sure it was only just recently but it may have been a one-off just before Christmas.

Thanks. I will email and ask them.

Good work

There is a free bus provided that picks up in Benioja and I am sure Quesada but I have no details but have seen the bus on thursdays many times around 1030 am to 11. Mke

Just had this email from David's coaches -
Good morning
Thank you for your e-mail.
Last year for the months of November and December we offered excursions
to La Zenia Boulevard at a cost of 8€ per person. This excursion only ran
once every week afterwards it was cancelled as no body booked on it !

Therefore we do not feel that this is a viable excursion to run at this time,
but we thank you for your suggestion.
Regards

It may have been the wrong time of year, although it was Christmas shopping time, but why didn't they tell us? I am going to suggest that the next time they do this or any similar trip, that they let me know and I can post it on the forum.

Good idea Jan, we were over for xmas and would have gone on trip.

Agree with you Dot. We too would have gone

Maggie.

Wonder how many others would have gone if they had known or would go if there was a coach doing this now. I could send this topic to the coach companies if we get lots of support. Lol
