    Advice for June trip from Leon-Santiago

    Yes, this was by far the cheapest route. I am finding a bit difficult to plan the transport from Lisbon to Leon, want to go as cheap as possible. We arrive in Lisbon at 2:00 PM and planned to do bus/train to Leon, but may take a couple days it looks like.
