Albergues are where to stay! Have walked 6 caminos and have never pre-booked! On the Primitivo, the Municipal albergues had DOZERNS of empty beds while the pre-booked tourist places were full. A lot of people appear to be AFRAID to stay in albergues! If we do not use the Albergues, we will lose them--lost the albergue in Dozon on the Sanabres from lack of people staying there. Do it right--NO pre-booking and No taxis to carry your pack! Rather than spend money for your backpack to ride in a taxi, consider buying a bed or a meal for those who walk with nothing!

[@caminotellers]

That’s true, many people are afraid of staying in Albergues, not knowing that the best spirit and atmosphere is there!

[@YourCaminoAmigo]

The best experiences I've had at albergues have been between the typical stages. Just stop in when you see something interesting. Usually you'll find very involved owners and experienced pilgrims who know all the pilgrim etiquette. Usually you can find family style meals too!

[@caminotellers]

We live “in between stages” !

[@danionthego]

I re-use the ‘disposable’ sheet and pillowcase many times. No need for new ones each day. Too much pollution. Thank you for an interesting video. Buen camino.

[@caminotellers]

We like to do it too! Thanks for sharing your opinion 🤗

[@JenniferRazon]

I’m walking the Camino Frances this coming May and your videos are helping me prepare for the journey. I’m really excited as I’ve been wanting to do this walk for so many years and now I finally get to do it. Thanks for sharing all the info and knowledge.

[@caminotellers]

Wonderful! We hope you will have a wonderful time! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask!

[@CruisinwiththeColemans]

Tips everyone needs to know! Buen Camino!

[@caminotellers]

Thanks lovely Colemans!

[@pikijakob1]

How beautifully explained. 👏

[@caminotellers]

thanks, sometimes those papers can be to much to go through...

[@Deiacatlover]

Thank you for the information!! I will be walking Camino Primitivo next July/Aug

[@caminotellers]

We will be finishing it in June beginning of July, we will keep the group posted about the best places ….

[@galtmann8482]

Hi, it's Grace from California. Thank you so much for this very informational video. You answered a lot of the questions, and I am very appreciative of all of it. I will be making my first camino in the autumn, at age 71, and this video and the one from a few days ago have been instructive. Thank you🌞🌻

[@caminotellers]

Glad it was helpful!

[@caminotellers]

Which Camino will you walk?

[@galtmann8482]

The French Way

[@kitty_s23456]

Thank you🌞🌻

[@mazenklojan]

Hello :) I've been watching your videos for a while now, getting ready for my first camino :) In this video you say that you cannot book albergues at all, but in the linked video in the end, you say that you can book albergues the night before or even from home before the camino. Is this something new from this year? Is it only for the camino frances?

[@caminotellers]

Hello! You can only book the private albergues, any time you like, on any Camino. The donation based and the municipal cannot be booked. Which Camino are you walking this year??

[@davidabbott1788]

Hi is there a booklet that lists donativos and municipal Alburgues?

[@berthabrathuhn9382]

For the Camino Francés, you can get a list of the albergues in St. Jean Pied de Port at the pilgrim's office. That list also includes private albergues, but it is always indicated whether a place is municipal, parroquial or private, and also prices (or if they're donation based). Just highlight the municipals and donativos in the list if you prefer those :-) The list also has all the information about whether the albergue has a kitchen, how many beds, distance to next town, ect. Very useful little booklet! Buen Camino!

[@davidabbott1788]

@@berthabrathuhn9382 Hi thank you for the information 👍👍

[@caminotellers]

Great advice pilgrims! The great thing is that they update it each year!

[@goonerhill1668]

I saw an albergue host deny a german because 'she didn't like the look of him'. That was the worst albergue i stayed at on my camino. I read all the weird and terrible google reviews of that place after and believe all of them.

[@caminotellers]

There are some creepy places, like the “ramon” from the Way, do you remember???

[@troydasilva3685]

Hey guys. I dont want to be negative but i have noticed in your shorts and other blogs you refer to the Camino de Santiago alot but when you do that you are only talking about the Camino Frances. Maybe you should try to enlighten your subscribers others. As your poll question was about problems with the Frances pointing people to other caminos might help alleviate some pressure which it is experiencing right now. Just a thought, maybe 2 too many beers after my walk today on the Mozarabe😁. Dont get me wrong i enjoy your content. Love you guys.

[@caminotellers]

Thanks for that feedback Troy! We take it into consideration to be more clear about that aspect! How is the Camino Mozarabe??

[@troydasilva3685]

@@caminotellers im only finished day one and so far uneventful. Dry river bed and some roads. I get into the mountains ( snow capped ones btw 😁) starting tomorrow and i hear its going to be spectacular. Keep you posted. BTW, i just saw your up coming Q& A topic next week 👍

[@caminotellers]

@@troydasilva3685 I thought that you would eventually see the upcoming Live… :) we truly believe in sharing things about many Caminos, happened to be that people ask mostly about that one! To be honest, the first two Camino we did weren’t even French! This year we go against the main stream, we’ll keep you updated too !
