    Transport and baggage

    Hello Robo, Falcon and Getting there. Thank you for your replies. Somehow I must have missed seeing these replies in the frantic organising before leaving for Europe. Sorry for my slow replies. I appreciate that there are many forums here with many topics similar to things I am asking, but I...

    Transport and baggage

    Hello everyone, Thank you again to everyone so far who has helped answering a lot of my question about the Camino Frances. I have some questions about transport and luggage. I arrive in Bordeaux at 1905 on the 18/8. Is this too late in the evening for me to get to st Jean? Does anyone have a...

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thanks for your encouragement Kiwi family! I think I will try and do whatever I can on foot-and at least the last 100km on foot or 200km by bike. I'll organise to get my luggage picked up in St Jean and will retrieve it in Santiago. It looks like I can probably book my trains and buses around...

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thanks so much guys. Kiwi family, upon your suggestions I'm thinking that a mix of walking and cycling is sounding good. I though that in order to say that you have 'officially' completed the camino de santiago' you need to do the 800km is that right? It sounds like I need to book in advance to...

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thank you Kiwi family, I'm thinking that 27km a day walking-even without a pack sounds pretty hard on the joints though no?

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thanks Jenny for all your responses, it's hard for me to make a decision about what to do. I know that 29 days is a long time to do the 800km on bike but I'm thinking that walking 27km a day even without a pack is a bit too tricky.....

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Hello Jenny, my Australian friend! I've had a look at the Bicigrino website. Do you know which bike company you are going with and who you are booking to transfer your luggage? Am I okay to pick up my 'camino' passport at St Jean and then i get it stamped along the way? How do you 'prove' the...

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thank you Jill. Do you know how long it takes to get from Bayonne to St Jean? I've looked on that transport website, thank you, it looks like it is too early now to book. Do you know how far in advance I can book? Thank you again. Kind regards, Rasa

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Also, I am assuming there are internet cafe's with wifi along the way? I am resigning from my job for this trip, so through the trail when I arrive at towns, I will need to be job searching! Thanks again, RaRa

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thank you so much Jenny. :) I will look at those links. Does anyone have the link for me to book a train from Bordeaux to st Jean and then From Santiago to Madrid at the end? I realise it is too early to be able to book trains yet though. Thanks again everyone. Kind regards, RaRa

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Hello everyone, Thank you again for all of your help. I am quitting my job to do solo travel in Europe for 4 and a half months, so this advice is very valuable to me! I have new updates. My flights have now been changed so that I arrive in Bordeaux at 1905 on the 18/8 and then I will depart to...

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thanks Mark and everyone for your wonderful advice. 'The Way' was also my inspiration! Has anyone here done the hike starting in Portugal (The Camino Portugués). My travel agent booked this in for me confirming that this was in fact the Camino De Santiago, which confused me as I thought it went...

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thanks so much Mark. Are you organising to hire a bike in advance and having your luggage picked up? Is anyone here doing the route that starts in Portugal?

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Thank you Jenny. I am starting the hike in Portugal as that is where I was told to start and then end in Madrid, does that sounds right? Which course should I follow? Will it be 800 km?

    Advice of how to do Camino De Santiago (for my circumstances)

    Hello! I am a solo traveler from Australia. I would like to do the Camino De Santiago trail from the 19th of August August departing Madrid on the 17th of September 2017.
