First Camino - Camino Portugues from Tui - April

Time of past OR future Camino
Apr-May 2022 Portuguese from Tui
Well I've been lurking for ages and learned so much, I thought I should say hello. Until I found this forum, I had no idea there were so many routes and so many people travelling in different ways.

For our first Camino, we are only doing the last 100 km of the Camino Portugues including the Variante Spirituelle organised by a UK travel company, Inntravel, with luggage transfer and staying in small hotels. We've done self-guided walking holidays with them before in Spain and Portugal but shorter distances so we're a little wary but up for the challenge. Inntravel provide walking notes, maps & now gpx files which I've put on to Wikiloc. I realise that most of you are a lot more flexible and don't pre-book etc but we haven't travelled like that for a very long time. I'm hoping after this trip that we'll be more adventurous next time. I've a feeling this will not be our last Camino.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
¡Buen camino! I’m sure you’ll have a great adventure. What are the stages that you’re doing?
