We are struggeling with some issues with images and attachments not loading on the forum. This is some left-over problems from the other day. We have back-ups of everything, so nothing is lost, we just need to link things up again so that it works. In short, we are working on it. Sorry! Ivar

Biarritz to St Jean (and/or Roncesvalles): http://www.sncf.com - Train from Biarritz (and Bayonne) to St. Jean Pied de Port ± 1hr50 mins. The last train leaves Bayonne at 18:13 and gets in StJPdeP at 19:35.
Or, you can take the #6 bus from the Biarritz airport to the Bayonne train station. It leaves about every 30 minutes and takes about 45 minutes. Complete bus schedule here:
Express Burricot taxi to Roncesvalles. 06-61-96-04-76 or book ahead: Email: apcaroline@hotmail.com
Biarritz to Pamplona: Train to Irun and then to Pamplona:
The nearest airport to Roncesvalles is Pamplona - about 50kms away.
18h00 bus cost about 4 euro and takes about 1 hour.
Having done the bus route before and waited an hour for it to arrive, I'd surely say a taxi is the way forward! Bayonne's actually quite nice so it'll give you some time to wander about a bit. (please note: nice fluffy cake shop in Bayonne)
