French Way May 2018.
Planning some sort of camino for Sep 2019..
Hi all,
I will be doing the start of the coastal route from Porto to Vila de Conde and then back to the interior route up to Rates and onward. I have a couple of questions if anyone can help, thanks in advance
1) In general, (walking start of Sep) is it advisable to book accommodation or can you be pretty much assured of a bed somewhere at each of the main stops? I'm not fussy by the way (except for bed bugs!)
2) Do many of them have private rooms? I'm thinking I'll need one at least on a couple of nights maybe after some of the longer days as I'm a very light sleeper..
3) Do many places ake cards as payment or is it just best to bring cash and an ATM card?
Cheers, Jacky
