Orange cell phone coverage

Time of past OR future Camino
May 2024
My husband and I will be starting the Camino Frances at SJPDP. We are wondering if we can get by with Spain only service from Orange. Is there coverage in SJPDP if you have the Spain only service or should we buy the Europe plan so we will be sure to have coverage for the short time we will be in France? Thanks in advance for any word of advice on this!
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Vodaphone and Movistar have the edge on coverage but you should be fine with Orange (this is Spain after all 😉). By the time you get to Valcarlos or Roncesvalles you’ll be in Spain.
 
Ideal pocket guides for during and after your Camino. Each weighs just 40g (1.4 oz).
I had Orange in France and it covered all of Europe at no extra charge. You might want to check your coverage. I would think that with Orange Espana, you should be covered as well, otherwise use Wifi in France as @trecile suggests.
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
