New member - Travel from Belgium to Sarria

Time of past OR future Camino
September 2024
Hello everyone!

My name is Joven and I am a new member of the forum. I am living in Belgium. Me and my wife are planning to do our first Camino in September of this year. We will only do the last leg from Sarria because of lack of experience and lack of time (our vacation leave is only two weeks).

Is there anyone here (from Belgium) that have done the Camino from Sarria? I would like to know about the travel from Belgium? Go straight to Sarria? Or go first to Santiago? I am in the process of comparing (with regards to price, duration of travel and comfort) if we are to take plane, train or bus?

I would really appreciate any feedback.

Thanks to you all!

Hello, Joven! Welcome to the forum! I'm not from Belgium, but I can share my travel experience. When I visited Ireland, flying directly to Dublin was convenient (if you ever visit Dublin, check out therevolution.ie for their brunch and dinner menu!). Consider checking flights from Belgium to Santiago or nearby cities. It might save time, and you can explore Santiago before starting your Camino from Sarria. It adds a nice prelude to your journey. Safe travels, and enjoy the Camino adventure with your wife! If you need tips about Ireland, feel free to ask!
