Time of past OR future Camino
hope to start Camino France's this September; would like to connect with others also planning to go.
Hello, Peregrinos (as),

I will be walking from Burgos to Leon in late September, and I will be flying into Bilbao. I would like to see the museum and stay in a hostel in Bilbao, then bus or train to Burgos the next day. Can you recommend a hostel in Bilbao? Please advise. Thank you, Eleanor McCarthy
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Transport luggage-passengers.
From airports to SJPP
Luggage from SJPP to Roncevalles

Hi, Eleanor,
I was in Bilbao last May, stayed in the Gambara hostel! Its in the old town!
Metro stop on doorstep!
5-mins from Guggenheim museum!
Free breakfast, met a few pilgrims on the Camino Norte! Think it was about €15 for a dorm!

Hi, Eleanor,

Most possible you want to visit Guggenheim museum in Bilbao. If that's the case and if the location of hostel is important to you than you have Botxo Youth Hostel (very nice and usually the cheapest) across the river from the museum:

Hope this helps. Enjoy Bilbao and Buen Camino!
