Hello,

My trip starts in a couple of days and I am trying to finalize my luggage transport. Everything else has been set and easy when talking with providers but the only difficulty I'm having is finding one that can transport from the Valenca do minho train station to O Porrino. Tuitrans has said they can do it, but they want me to book my entire trip with them with a final total of €81. This seems a bit steep but Top Santiago hasn't responded yet about their prices and I feel like I'm running out of time.

Is the €81 price fair for transport from Valenca - Porrino - Redondela - Pontevedra - Armenteira - Vilanova de Arousa - Escrivitude - Santiago ?

Has anyone used a service before that picks up at the train station or somewhere in Valenca?
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Top Santiago is able to provide the service - with pick up from the fire station in Valenca which is about a 10min walk from the train station. Total is €56 for the entire trip to Santiago which I think is fair.

Ideal pocket guides for during and after your Camino. Each weighs just 40g (1.4 oz).
Not quite the answer to your question, but when I arrived at Valenca station, I put my pack in a taxi and sent it by itself to my booked albergue in Tui while I walked through the Castillo and over the bridge.
I then used Camino Facil for the next several days.
You might be able to arrange something similar with them.

I used them as well and they lost my bag twice! If I hadn’t had an Apple AirTag in it, thru would never have found it. Then they took their time getting it to me stopping at a bar. I would find another company to use. 3 times I beat my bag to my accommodation. They didn’t have good control or contact with the van drivers. It was very, very frustrating which hampered my Camiño.

Hi all! I know shoes are discussed quite a bit here but I have a last minute question as I head out on the Camino Frances next Sunday. I have a weaker ankle so I purchase the Oboz Sapphire Mid...
I stopped in the pilgrim store Armería Castro.Deportes y Tienda del peregrino today, and they carry bags of wool to use on your feet. https://maps.app.goo.gl/Zb8fM4AK2qyCuGYt6?g_st=ac
Anyone had any experience with getting collapsible (fold up) poles through airport security checkpoints in carryon baggage. In particular when exiting Australia and Spain?
