The folks over at "Follow the Camino" have created this tool that I think can be useful. It is basically a search engine for public transport, camino related.

You enter for example Madrid to Pamplona, and they give you the public transport alternatives with prices and how long it takes. I am not sure that their database is complete, it is still early on, but give it a shot here:

Buen Camino!

So I did, with queries which perhaps are not representative, but very basic answers:
a) Madrid-Sarria (RENFE, its cost but no timetable) and
b) Madrid-Logroño (suggesting to contact another site)
The "Follow the Camino" database is without doubt in a "Beta" stage but worthwhile checking in a few weeks time :wink:

Hi Fraluchi,

Thanks for testing. Results have been updated.
Let me know if you find other issues.

We currently have over 90 combinations and will build up on that.

Unfortunately, I always get the same message:

[i"]Please email the details to transport@followthecamino.com for help or if you find the info, please send it to us for update"[/i]

I tried Madrid to Seville, Madrid to Santiago and several others.

Hi Grayland,

Madrid to Sevilla updated.

You should try to put Madrid to Santiago de Compostella. Santiago does not exist in the database as it could be the airport, the bus station or other places.

If you have other routes that would be required, let me know and Will search and update.

Cheers,
Umberto
