I'm a senior walker on the camino and will be taking the Camino de Santiago Frances route this month.
I've made the reservation of all lodgings along the route by the Booking.Com except one location, San Juan de Ortega.
I'm wondering if I can still use the baggage transfer service to this...
It looks like we have a pretty much same time frame for the camino walk. Returning from Santiago to Madrid of my itinerary is May 12th and I made purchase of the train ticket by Renfe on on-line recently.
Ticket price is 20.65 euro and departing Santiago on 7:47am, arriving Chamartin station of...
Please advise me where to transfer the backpack to the next destination where the lodging is not pre-booked. Is it possible that you can transfer the backpack to the any albergues or municipal albergue only?
Looking forward of hearing your advices.
I recommend the booking.com to book the entire lodgings, either albergues or private inexpensive hotels . The most places, listed on the booking.com are able to be cancelled free charge a few days before arrivals. When I took the Camino Frances last fall, I did make pre booking on the...
Can anyone advice me for the information of most updated lodgings along the Camino Frances for April?
I have been trying to book ahead of time through the booking.com, however there are a number of places not listed on their web site. Gronze? Any tips or information will be appreciated.
Hi, Kevin,
I’m glad you found it. You might be able to catch me on the somewhere on the Camino. I’m a senior, living in Southern California and this is a first full Camino ( previously I made two trips to do a full Camino Frances in 2017). Hope to be caught.
I was having the same reservation problem on line to book a bus ticket to SJPP for the September14th trip.
They keep saying "no bus found' after 5th. However I just booked a bus from Pamplona to SJPP with EUR22,00. A bus leaves Pamplona (Estacion de Autobuses, Calle Yanguas Y Miranda 2...
It was my misunderstanding about Rome2rio. It is a self-service travel search engine where they give you the tools to get you from A to B.
However they have confirmed by checking on ALSA’ s website and no schedules to show up for most part of September as of yet. Their recommendations are just...
Anyone searching recently the albergues in Pamplona for the month of September?
I did and found all albergues including a municipal albergue{Jesus y Maria) are completando
in the entire Pamplona areas. The email from the municipal albergue is saying from May through the September are completo. I...
I think you are right. I emailed to "Rome2rio" which operate ALSA a little while ago and I got a letter like this. "The reason no tickets are showing up for your journey on 14th September is because a lot of European operators change the schedules at the end of the summer season around the first...
Would you please tell us where you can purchase the tarjeta dorada (golden card). I’m in the age of wisdom and discretion I hope. Thanks for the advice.
Hi, I had a same problem of booking a bus trip to SJPP from Pamplona for 9/14/2022. All bus websites are saying “no bus found”.
So I emailed to Rome2rio which arranges a bus reservation for ALSA and their response is as follow. I hope this photocopy of their email will ease your concerns...
Does anyone have a idea of the bus transportation from Pamplona to SJPP for September journey?
I'll be arriving Pamplona from Madrid by a train on Sept.13th and am planning to stay one night in Pamplona. Was looking a bus schedule to go the SJPP on the next day by a bus. There are several...
Hi, Laurie
I took the Central route (Caminho central) from the train station of Porto. I believe it is the most popular route but there are a few other ways including the coastal route. Some people starts from Coastal way and join the Central route. Although the way marks were not visible very...
Hi, fellow pilgrims to be on the camino Portuguese.
I took the Portuguese camino a few years ago starting Porto and I really enjoyed the entire experiences. Since the Portugal was my first travel, I decided to land LIsbon first and spent a few days' sightseeing by myself and took a train to...
4RJN, In 2017 Spring time on my first Camino, I took Valcarlos route and I was almost dead on the way.
Now I'm planning to take Napoleon route on this coming September pilgrimage. By just looking your pictures, I am probably older than you are. I'll use their baggage transportation from SJPP...
Dear Merge
My apology to you. I realized that picture I posted didn’t come via email. It was a screen shot and II printed it for the proof of the reservation. Sorry for the confusion. If you still feel uneasy I suggest you call the bank or a credit card company to check if they have taken your...
