Hey Don, I have walked parts of the Frances 3 times and have 2 weeks to spare next April. I want to walk from Porto to Santiago but not on the coastal way. Is there a specific name for the interior Portugal route or is it called Portuguese Camino too? I ask because all I have been seeing are...
I just applied online. Question- We have 4 in our party ( 1 adult /3 teens) and the prompt asks to set up group. When I fill out info it only asks for my info. Will this group QR code be good for 4 of us or does everyone need to fill one out? Thank you.
Hello, For those from US - the NEW policy going into effect in 2 days. All returning Americans will need to have a Covid test with 24 hours of boarding flights as opposed to the current 3 days turnaround.
I booked my flights from Santiago ( Monday morning) with only a 2-hour layover in Madrid, so not enough time to get the test in Madrid AP. I have been emailing some of the labs to find any place open on the weekend in SdC but have been unsuccessful. I will now try to track down Suevia Salud and...

Thank you. We will be arriving on June 30th around 5pm and I wanted to make sure I would have time to obtain a pilgrims passport before starting out the next morning. Buen Camino.
CS, I plan on shipping my luggage after I arrive at Madrid AP in June. I was going to use luggage transfer service at Terminal 4 (in the basement) which will shrink wrap & then send luggage to Ivar for $40. If you don't mind me asking - how will you wrap your luggage for transport and...
Hi, I am taking my 13 yo daughter in June. Maybe will we see you on the trail. Question. Are you staying in albegues or in hotels? I'm a little concerned about the lack of privacy for in the hostels but I guess she will just have to adjust.
