The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Oh dear, I had expected to get the 0745 train from Bayonne tomorrow (Fri 5th) ... what's the problem? Why no train? Will there be enough buses? Will I make it to my first night accommodation if the bus takes over 4 hours? Goodness! Already a mountain to overcome and I don't have my boots on yet!! Hahahahaha!!! :p

Please relax! 05/05 the link in the helpful post above by Marion shows that there is a bus from Bayonne to SJPdP at 07:45 which takes only 1 1/2 hours.

The link also shows that early afternoon the trains return to service.

Bon voyage and Buen camino!

I'm always relaxed ;D

Great news about the bus, thank you!

I've just boarded the plane from Stansted to Biarritz & just met another pilgrim! (I suspect from the clothing there may be another 2 or 3 of us on this flight too)

And so it begins!

Can't wait to get started tomorrow! Woohoo!

Thanks for all of the advice & support on this fabulous forum :)
 
That's great news, last year we had to use the bus replacement which turned out to be a nice journey though the valleys. But have heard that the train ride has better scenery.
We will be in Bayonne next Friday - can't wait to start our Camino.
Buen Camino!
