    I used Express Bourricott (not sure I got the spelling correct). It’s a car service. They’re friendly and easy to use. They pair you up with other peregrinos coming in and as they do the price of the ride decreases. I had to wait at the airport...

    It’s preference, but I’d say get them and use them. Good for uphills and more important down hills. Also keeps your arms moving and helps to keep your hands from going numb under a heavy pack. I’d also recommend getting the hard surface caps -...
