Just walk on your own and send your bags,onwards in the am with Camino Facil or lther com'anies,that have enveloped at each albergue along the way - even the post office now offers this service.
A lot of pilgrims use tour companies. I've met several folks on the Camino who were very happy with the tour set up, and the lodging folks are well versed in dealing with problems and situations.
With everything taken care of, all you have to do is enjoy the walk.
Here is one that come up on a web search:

Absolutely. These companies leave envelopes at the front desk on which you put down name, conatct info and where you want your bad delieverd. You then put the money in the envelop and tie it to the bag. Voila! Down side is that you have to comit to your next stop, up side os that you are not taken for a ride by "tour operators" who chaerege an arm and a leg for very little added value. Just get a goog guide with the list of albergues and distances, and go with that. Take a light day back to carry rain gear, water and snacks, and you are ready.Oh, wow. I had no idea this was an option. Thank you.
I have no doubts whatsoever that you can do it…..I find it a big part of the enjoyment of the journey - the preparation and planning.Thank you. everyone has been so kind. maybe I can put this together on my own!
I am from Australia and used an Australian guy who lives in Santiago . His name is Garry Buden he may be contacted at garry@spanishadventures.com. If you go to trip advisor you shall be able to read my review. It was really great to have someone to phone if you got into any trouble (as I did). Besides arranging all your accommodation and bag transfers he supplies you with a phone with 50 Euro credit which I found to be invaluableHi,
My husband and I are hikers, not backpackers. So we want to use a self guided tour company to make accommodations and transfer our stuff so we just need to carry day packs and poles. Any recommendations on companies to use? I've heard of Mac Adventure Tours but know nothing about them. Other tour companies that anyone has had first hand experience would be so great! We are looking at going spring or fall of 2016.
Thanks so much for your help!
