Baggage services from Bayonne or Biarritz?

Sue L · Jan 14, 2018

Hi Pilgrims
We are planning to start the Norte in late August/early September but (reluctantly) it looks like our group will need baggage services. Would appreciate advice if services exist if we start in Bayonne or Biarritz? Correos and Le P'tit Baggage seem to start only from Irun but I'm hoping I'm wrong thinking this or perhaps there's another company?

From everything I've read a couple of gentle days towards Irun sound like a good training strategy.

I have no knowledge about whether transport services exist for this route. But I do suggest contacting the tourist office and inquiring there. You can write in English and your reply will be in English. Here is the link to the Biarritz office:

Good luck.

Thanks so much for the links - very useful information and encouraging about this route being scenic and well marked. Taxi is an option if all else fails.

If you mean baggage service in direct transportation from Biarritz to Santiago...not daily baggage service...or maybe just from Biarritz to Irun...you can contact SARL Express Bourricot – www.expressbourricot.com – contact@expressbourricot.com

Thanks Kurt5280: I wrote to them on recommendation from the Biarritz tourist office and they replied that they don't do those stages (sorry I wasn't clear that's what I meant!). They recommended contacting accommodation places so I'll try that next.

My group of six arrives in Irun on May 20 and we're starting our Camino on May 21. Since it's the beginning of the busy season, I'm wondering if we should order trekking poles from Amazon Espana...

Elevation map shows this is really steep! What’s the best way from downtown Hondarribia up there? Then wish me luck on the Purgatorio—I am a nervous wreck.
