Hello everyone,

My friend and I are leaving for our Camino tomorrow and he realises he's left his credential at home and won't be able to get it. Is there somewhere we can pick on up in SJPP? We will be arriving at 8pm tomorrow evening and were hoping to set off early on tuesday, just incase said place may not be open.

Any response this evening would be greatly appreciated as by tomorrow it won't be seen ha!

All the best,

Joe

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

Joe,
In Saint-Jean the office for the Amis du Chemin de Saint Jacques at 39 rue de la Citadelle is open from 7h30 to 12h30 and then from 13h30 to 22h. They can provide you with a Credential and lodging assistance. Their volunteers help run the albergue at 55 rue de la Citadelle. Recently renovated this is a fine place to stay, but they do NOT take reservations. If their albergue is full they will help you find other pilgrim lodgings when you are on site. They keep up to the minute lists of available space throughout the SJPdP area. .

Buen Camino,

Margaret Meredith
 
That is brilliant, thank you for the assistance, i'll let you know how we get on!

All the best,

Joe
