I would like to mail some clothes and a few other items I will want after my Camino. Is it difficult to mail it from France or should I just carry the extra kilo to Spain and mail from there? I know cost will most likely depend upon weight but does anyone know what a 1 kilo pkg will cost to mail from France? Thank you.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
You can post from St Jean during the week - 9am to 12pm and then 2pm to 5pm. Saturdays 9am to 12pm (closed Sundays).
It might be a little more costly to post from St Jean but it could cost you €7 per stage to have the stuff transported so you might as well post it.
 
Transport luggage-passengers.
From airports to SJPP
Luggage from SJPP to Roncevalles

I just ran the "Calculateur de tarif" here
http://www.laposte.fr/particulier/outils/calculateur-de-tarif
... and it told me that a 1kg parcel from France to Spain would be €16,15
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
Ivar would you know anyone who would pick up a suitcase and take it forward to each stage hotel and how much this would cost overall or per stage from Sarria to Santiago.

Many thanks

Most transfer companies starting from St Jean charge €7 per bag per stage. If you are in a group the cost goes down according to the number of bags they transport. From Sarria competition is fierce and there are at least a dozen luggage transfer companies vying for your business, all reliable, all charging the same €3 per stage. They charge more to enter the old quarter of the city hence the €5 on the last day.
