    Sending excess luggage from Bilbao to PL Reina

    Hi! The best way is go to Correos. Get the box "Paquete azul" midium size 9,50€ or big size 11,20€ prices include the transport to any place in Spain. Put your things inside, write the adress of the albergue and send it. Very easy.

    Transport from San Juan de Ortega back to Bilbao

    Hi! I think the best option is walk a bit more till Atapuerca, and there take a taxi to Burgos (aprox 25€). In Burgos you can get the train (RENFE) to Bilbao. Buen Camino
