Hello all
Hope you can help me with the following.
We are planning on doing the Camino at Easter. We have booked our flights and are flying into Bordeaux. We are hoping to stay here on the Saturday night and then get the train the following day to St Jean Pied de Port. We believe there is only one train on Sundays from Bordeaux at 11.50. We would then stay in St Jean that night and start our walk on the Monday, all going well. We have a limited time so are hoping to walk to Logrono and hopefully return to do further stages at a later date. We believe we would need 7 days of walking to get there. We would then get a train/bus to Bilbao and fly home from there. We have 2 weeks exactly so I guess we could spend a couple of nights in Bordeaux and Bilbao or stay a night in Pamplona.
In relation to buses and trains when should we book them or do we just book on arrival?
We are hoping to stay in the albergues to get a feel for the experience. It would also be cheaper for us.
We believe we can get an airport bus (Jetbus) from Bordeaux airport into the town centre. Is it worth staying in Bordeaux for a while or should we stay in Bayonne?
Could anyone give us some info re the above or any advice that you might have? It would be much appreciated.
