Suggestion Netherlands to SJPP

Hi,
My girlfriend and I are starting our Camino in SJPP in May.
Any hint about the best option to reach there from The Netherlands (particularly Nijmegen)?
Thanks in advance!!
Kind regards,
Ricardo

Thanks Celine! It is a great site to check. It helped me to realize that there won't be much difference between taking the train or the plane (considering time at the airport).

Thanks Purky, I didn't know this site.

Also keep an eye on Blablacar. The stage from Nijmegen to Paris for instance might be done via a rideshare, which could be very cost-effective.

I recommend you go to Rome2Rio.com (https://www.rome2rio.com/)

or download the Rome2Rio app for your smartphone.

It will explain the various methods to get from point A to point B just about anywhere on the planet.

For expediency, here is the rome2rio search link. Click on it to be taken to the solution.

Hope this helps.

Thank you all for your help!
This is how we finally are making it.
I will work till Friday, so at midnight we are taking an inexpensive bus from Nijmegen o Paris CDG.
A few hours later, early in the morning, a fight till Biarritz.
And then the train from Biarritz, so we are at SJPP in the afternoon, just in time to take some rest and start walking on Saturday.
The night bus allows us to make the trip in one day, which means we will have time to spend one more day with our family and friends (I'm Spanish) before coming back to the Netherlands
Thanks again!!
