We just got a notification from SNCF that our trains for April 29 28 are cancelled from Biarritz to St. Jean.
Any last minute suggestions for the guy sitting in an airport gate in Manitoba? :)

I will be booking my flight tickets to Europe for approximately a September 1 start date. My initial plan is fly into Paris and take a train to SJPP. However from Paris there appears to be only 1 train per day that leaves Paris about 1:30pm arriving at 7:45pm (19:45). This train also appears to...

My train will arrive in SJPP around 8:30 in the evening. This is my first time there and I have no clue on direction or where the property is where I am staying. Just the address. I just planned on letting google maps direct me there. Is that a good idea or should I get a taxi to take me? I...
Greetings! Flying in from Chicago 4/25; ORY to BIQ (17:40)...how do you best get to St. Jean & can I do it the same day, or should I book a hotel in Biarritz?
I'm planning to walk with a small group of first time pilgrims from SJPdP to Pamplona in mid May, then I'll head up to Bayonne to walk the Norte solo. Rome2Rio lists several options including train, bus, and ride share (Blablacar) but the train option seems pretty convoluted. I tried to check...

Back in 2013 my husband and I cycled the Camino. Ever since then we've wanted to walk and had intended doing so in 2020. Well, we all know what happened then. We are now looking at walking at least from SJPdP to Pamplona this year. We were thinking of using a train to get from London to SJPdP...
