    Taxi from Santiago airport to Ferol.

    Just for current info I booked a taxi from SdC Airport going to the starting point of the Ingles today with Suntransfers at a cost of 118 Euros. There's x4 of us going and we want to knock off 10k on the first day due to time restrictions so it was an easy decision in the end...

    Camino Ingles or Norte?

    I would recommend the Ingles, it was my first back in 2012 and am heading back to repeat it in October. Cannot wait although a little concerned about the comments made on here about some of the route changes. I'm sure it will be fine though. I have walked the first five stages of the Norte and...

    Camino Ingles July 2014

    When we walked from Irun to Gernika in 2013 my two boys were 13 and 10 years old. They found it tough but were able to cope OK with a little gentle persuasion of course at times and the odd bribe of ice cream etc but generally they liked to lead the way, searching out the waymarks and pointing...

    Looking for a new route, not too solitary or difficult

    Hi Marigold, The Jonny Walker guide is superb so yes that is your first port of call. I must say I loved the Camino Ingles as it was my very first camino and still talk about it all the time. The difference was that I did it with a mate so we were happy enough plodding along alone. We did not...

    Camino Ingles - planned trip with child / July 2013

    GollyGolly - congratulations to you both on your Camino and hopefully the start of many many more to come. Also glad to hear the hills were all manageable and your daughter enjoyed it. I walked the first five days of El Camino del Norte in the Basque Country back in July with my wife and two...

    Camino Ingles - planned trip with child / July 2013

    Do not underestimate the number of hills along the route. It will be tough especially if it is warm for an eight year old! I walked the route last September with a friend and rarely a week goes by still that we are talking about it and going over our photos...you can have a giggle by reading...

    First time peregrinos doing El Camino Ingles

    Hi there, Like John says I'm not sure what you are asking. He has provided you with the distances. I certainly wouldn't be considering walking to Ferrol from Santiago but I suppose that its your Camino so only you can decide on the best way to go. For Craig and me, we wanted to enjoy the...

    First time peregrinos doing El Camino Ingles

    Hi everyone, Well it's been six weeks since we got back from our wonderful journey along the Camino Ingles.

    Hi Wobbits, I am flying out from Dublin in September to do the Ingles and am at that stage of that size of bag do I need to buy. Like you, my friend and I are carrying our bags onto the plane but I reckon from what I've read on my thread 'First time peregrinos doin the Camino Ingles' weight...

    First time peregrinos doing El Camino Ingles

    John and Andy, Thanks to you both for taking the time to add your thoughts. I was even thinking that the rucksack I posted might have been too small, so that was welcome advice. A rethink is required and I have decided that I will visit the local stores to get a close up look and try them for...
