    Best company for daily bag transport Sarria to Santiago?

    We used Jacotrans with no problems

    Pack weight question

    Maybe a simple solution. Don't fill your water bladder. There is always water available during your day and the water quality in Spain is really good.

    Another vasculitis question

    This year, on the Camino, I experienced this but after about a week it disappeared and never returned. ???

    Any advice for when you want to quit?

    Maybe stay in a private room for a few nights and catch up on your sleep. Everything is better if you are well-rested.

    Old habitual or new technological and lighter

    I'd try to get used to the new lighter ones, color and all.

    Slower [easier?!] route from Astorga to Sarria?

    We have done the entire Camino Frances and have broken up all the stages to accommodate our age. Just use the Brierly guide and look for the distances you want. Then check something like Booking.com for places to stay. You can easily make your own journey.

    Luggage transfer.

    Does anyone know if there is luggage transport support on the Camino Ingles. My husband and I just finished the Frances and could not have done it without the transfer of our bags. We are +/- 80 years old and need all the help we can get.

    Santiago not overly crowded

    We arrived May 21 and had exactly the same experience.

    Pamplona to Logroño OR Palas de Rei to Santiago

    I would definitely choose Pamplona to Logroño. It is beautiful wine country with good food and many villages. I would also do no more than 15km a day so you can really enjoy your walk. Better to book ahead too. La Perla is a lovely hotel in Pamplona, since you're celebrating.

    Restaurant recommendations in Burgos

    Casa Ojeda is fantastic. We have eaten there twice both at lunch because Spanish dinner is too late for us. Just ate there last week and once in 2018.

    Bus from Leon to Sarria

    I booked a bus from Léon to Lugo and then a train to Sarria on 10 May. It was the only way I could figure out how to do it.

    Viana

    Viana is nice, Logrono is nicer with lots of good food and accommodations. Mush on.

    Two extra days before Sarria

    If you could get to Tricastella and walk to Samos one day and then to Sarria the next, that would be nice. The walk into Samos is lovely and seeing the monastery there is special too. The walk from Samos to Sarria - so-so.

    Leaving Leon - take a taxi to the outskirts????

    We took a taxi to La Virgen del Camino and walked from there. We're pretty fanatical about walking every part of the Camino, but this one section we are happy to have skipped.
