[QUOTE="dougfitz, post: 1050269, member: 10982"] I'm not sure what your thinking is here. Clearly some people prefer to have everything organised for them, but I suggest that this is almost completely unnecessary. This is not like a walking tour of a city or town where one quickly moves from one scenic attraction to the next. There will be long stretches of walking through a combination of urban areas, small towns and rural areas that will not have any value added by the presence of a tour guide. Consider booking with a travel company if you are uncertain. But my view is that this is also completely unnecessary, although it clearly offers some people comfort to have accommodation arrangements made for them. My observation about this is that it has risks associated with it, like finding your accommodation is several km off track and there is no transport to take you there. The first time I saw this was when my wife and I walked with someone using a booking company when we were on the CF a few years ago, It still seems to be happening today. This may seem like a long way from where you are currently thinking, but my suggestion is that you just get to Porto and begin walking. Book ahead each day or perhaps for the couple of next nights and use pack transport if you must, but retain the flexibility to make your own decisions about where and when you walk and stay to the maximum extent possible.
