Hi Hoping to do the Primitvo this coming June. Unfortunately the osteoarthritis in my back is playing up and I was wondering if any of you have used baggage transfer on Primitivo. Many thanks in advance.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Yes, we used the postal service's Pax Mochilla for a couple of the long sections and they were excellent!!

Hi LakeMcD Were they easy enough to contact and was the price reasonable? thanks
 
I used Correos and it was extremely easy, and worked like a charm. I organized everything online. I had to make some changes, and it was no problem. I even forgot an item at one place, and they were able to transport it to the next place for me along with my bag. I would certainly recommend them.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.

Do you need to book in advance or can you book say a day in advance.?
 
I booked it in advance about two weeks ahead, but I could have done it the evening before. As I walked, a few things changed and I needed to change the location of where my bag would be dropped off/picked up, which I was able to do the evening before. When you go to their website, it will give you information on when the deadline for changes is. I found the website really easy to use, and I liked the fact that my bag-forwarding was paid for ahead of time. If you book more than one stage at a time (I think?? it was 5) there was a bit of a discount.

Thank you so much for the helpful information.
