I was wondering if anybody knows if there is a place within or very close to the Pamplona bus / train station that I can buy a Spanish SIM card for my unlocked iPhone?
Thanks
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
There is an Orange store at Avenida San Ignacio 14 which is, according to Google maps, 280 meters, 4 minutes walk from the bus station. The bus station is at Calle Yanguas y Miranda.
Go to http://www.maps.google.com, enter "bus station Pamplona Spain". Click the get directions tab, then walking, and enter addresses and it shows you the way.
 
Vodafone is just off the Plaza de Castillo in central Pamplona, about ten minutes from the bus station, but twice that from the train station.

Simsforspain offers several different SIMS: Jazzcard Movil, Orange Mundo, Happy Movil, Orange, and Vodaphone. Do you know which would have better coverage for the Camino, or are they all about the same?

Movistar and Vodafone get good reviews for coverage. Orange is fairly new, and getting better. The others probably just market services from these three.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Thanks for the information :)
 
Is there a place recommended in Madrid near museums or near Gran Via to buy the Vodafone sim?

Actually, I used Lebara a couple of times. Coverage was ok along the Camino Frances...but sucked on the Le Puy route from Le Puy to St. Jean.
SPain works fine.
That said...Lebara has much lower calls/texts, etc back to the U.S. if that is sometihing you are considering. I think a text to the U.S. is about .50 USD.
