    Bag Transfer on Invierno Route

    Planning to do the full CF next April May. Did it last year following the standard route. This time we are considering doing the last section from Ponferrado on the Invierno route. Is anyone aware of companies that do bag transfers on this route. I’ve checked and NCS don’t.

    Hi all, I've heard that there are various options/companies that will transport your luggage from town to town so that you are free to walk without having to carry a backpack. I would appreciate any information, guidance and your view from experiences. Thanks Keith

    Luggage transfer options from Borda/Orisson to Roncesvalles

    Can I transfer my backpack to Borda or Orisson ? Then to Roncesvalles and onwards from there? I understand some places don't accept luggage transfer. If they do, would it be with Express Bourricot to Roncesvalles then Jacotrans after that? TIA

    Luggage Transportation

    We’re planning to walk from Arles to Puente del Reina.La Malle Postale ( who were amazing on the Via Podiensis) only offer a service until La Salvetat-sur-Agout( 250km from Arles) and apparently no one else does luggage transportation until Somport. We necessarily don’t need our bag taken...

    A quick thank you to the team at Correos PAQ Mochila. We've had flawless service from them, delivering our bag without fail, on time and undamaged. Highly recommended.

  19. Shipping a parcel from Porto to Santiago

    After a ridiculous amount of research, I am still confused about best option. This is NOT luggage. It is my laptop, which I need on the plane but OBVIOUSLY! do not want in my backpack. Transport services don't want to transport "delicate electronics." I have been warned against Portuguese mail...

    Is it safe to do a wire transfer to Tuitrans?

    Hello Pilgrims, I have been corresponding with Tuitrans for luggage transfer for my Camino trip next week. They have asked for payment via wire tranfer, which seems a little unusual. Has anyone else had to pay this way and does it feel safe? Much thanks for any thoughts, Lisa
