Travel Tips

Learning Spanish before beginning your Camino is hugely advantageous.

English is not spoken in rural Spain and is rarely spoken in towns, even in tourist offices. Expect to have to communicate in Spanish all the time.

Don’t expect anybody in northern Spain to speak English (or German, Italian, Swedish etc). It’ll pay to learn a little Spanish before you go.
