Hello, less than 2 weeks away until I start my first camino... I'm beginning to get a little nervous!

I arrive in Biarritz around 11am and I'm wondering all the ways that I can get to SJPDP to stay there for the night of the 25th of August.

I've read that the train isn't running? This was a little while ago though. Thanks for any advice you can give.

One good option to go from Biarritz airport to SJPdP is the Express Bouricott shuttle. It is comfortable and quick. It is popular and quickly fills up the closer to your departure date your are, so make a reservation ASAP if you want to use their services.

At this late date they may not have space available, but I would still check and try to make a reservation.

Right now there are trains running from Bayonne to SJPdP. If there will be strike or maintenance works the SNCF (French Railways) will provide buses for the same price (10,10€).
You will have more than enough time to come from BIQ to Bayonne train station for 14:52 train or maybe even for earlier one at 12:01. The ride is approx. 1 hour long.

Thank you everyone! I have sent a request in for the shuttle. If that doesn't work out, I'll try for the train and if that doesn't work out, the bus!

I agree with the previous pilgrim's recommendation. Express Bourricot is easy, affordable and convenient. In a nutshell, that's your solution. You are about to embark on an extraordinary journey. Be well.
