    Transport from Astorga to Sarria

    This is an idea as well and would be good too. I don’t know if he would have the confidence to drive in Spain. The opposite side of the road for him. Def something worth considering though.

    Best way to get from Madrid to Carrion de los Condes

    Sorry my husband has just reminded me that there is a bus on Saturday but the last one is 13.30 and we arrived about 15.00. We think the taxis knew we were desperate to get to carrion and possibly made a small profit

    Where on Camino is castrillo de val

    It's ok thanks everyone for your help. I've cancelled and booked Atapuerta. With A loss of £100 but I'll look at it as a learning curve. We are a party of 8 this year with 2 in our party in they're 70s and 2 children and we ll be needing a bag drop. It's less hassle to go with Atapuerta
