G'day fellow pilgrims,

Finally, after a year and a half of thinking and deciding about the options it is locked in.
I am flying in from Brisbane to Paris and I am starting my Camino from SJPdP on the 7th of June. I am planning to get into SJPdP day before, to get orientated.

Is there a way to get to SJPdP from Paris not in the evening, but in the early afternoon?

Thank you for the helpful posts that I came across on this forum.

See you along The Way.

Andy

Hi Andy, we are having coffee and Camino chat tomorrow from 9am at Bannertons Bakery at Ashgrove, we will have people who have walked and people who have not. It's very informal (coffee, sunshine, chatting) you are more than welcome to come

Fantastic.
Look for flights from Paris to Biarits and a train from there.

hi Andy, hope you have a great Camino, link to SNCF train timetable follows, just enter your start point and finish point ( Biarritz ) and then repeat process for Biarritz - St Jean Pied de Port.

Alternatively, you can take the TGV train to Bayonne, and then there is a small train to SJPdP . It goes from Montparnasse in Paris and takes about 5 hours.
Buen camino

The train station at Biarritz is just south of the airport, and trains arrive there from Paris after passing through Bayonne, so you probably don't want to go to the Biarritz train station to make a connection to SJPdP. You will just have to make a u-turn and go back to Bayonne.
