Step 2: Plan Your Trip!

If You're Joining in Spain . . .
All walkers are responsible for the cost for their trip including all accommodation and flights. You can choose to purchase what you need for the trip ad-hoc style or through a pre-prepared package!

Ad-Hoc Style
A good starting point estimation is about £500 not including flights. However, this can change depending on your needs! Please be aware that payments for your Camino trip cannot come out of your fundraising.

Some things to consider that affect the cost of your trip:

- Types of Accommodation – private room? Or shared hostel?
- Food – Included with your stay? Or will you buy your own locally?
- Luggage – carrying it all? Or do you want a luggage transfer service from stop to stop?
- Insurance – Do you feel comfortable without it?
- Certification – Do you want your official Camino stamps?

Pre-Prepared Package Style

If you would like to follow our lead, you can purchase a package through Pilgrim using our code. This ensures you stay in the same accommodations* as the Yes to Life team, so you’re always on track!

Email Elisa or Paolo at info@pilgrim.es to get your personalised quote. Be sure to reference the code C574233 to get booked alongside Yes to Life.

The package costs roughly €820 and includes:

6 nights of private accommodation with breakfast
24 hr emergency phone assistance
Guaranteed Pilgrim Credentials
Travel Insurance
Luggage Transfer for 1 bag of 15kg or less

The package can also be slightly customised, speak to Elisa or Paolo about your needs!

*as long as space is available.
