    Coastal: Places to Stay

    Hi we did the coastal route in June 2013. We started from Porto airport where we stayed in a private hostel for 14 euros including breakfast. It is highly recommended. The next evening we stayed in Vila do Conde but I do not believe that there is a hostel there but the tourist information office...

    This hostel is run by Anna and Marta who are 2 cousins. They inherited their grandmother's house renovated it and turned it into a hostel. Beds are 12 or 14 euros per night depending on which room you stay in. This includes breakfast. There is internet access and cooking facilities. The place is...

    Airport to Camino

    Thanks Miguel and Johnnie. Looks like the most difficult part is finding somewhere to stay on the Portuguese part of the coastal walk. We might have to resort to taking a tent but obviously would like to avoid the weight. We are doing research into accommodation if anyone has any ideas these...

    Airport to Camino

    Thanks Miguel if the metro goes straight to Villa de Conde it could be a good option. I will try to find some information. We do not need to go into Porto as we will be staying there on our return journey. Hope the coastal route is ok as the three of us travelling have a joint age of 205 we have...

    Airport to Camino

    The airport at Porto looks near to the Camino. Does anyone know if there a way of getting onto the Camino without going back to the city of Porto.

    Alberque la posada de dorra urraca

    Thanks for that information this Albergue does not seem to appear in any of the guides. It is in a useful position and will give us some alternatives. I am very grateful to you both and if we stay there I will make sure I leave some comments on this discussion board

    Alberque la posada de dorra urraca

    Thanks Daniele nobody seems to know about this Alberque which I think is the only one in Caldas de Rei. You say it was a little less than normal standard but was it ok?

    ARRIVING VIGO OCTOBER 18, 2011

    Three of us hope to start from Valence/Tui on the 19th. We are flying in to Vigo arriving at 19.45 on the 18th, total age 200 years. We have done our planning but would be glad to have some advice on two things. Our initial researches showed that there was a bus from Vigo to Tui at 9am and 12...

    Lists of accomodation

    I am sorry if my comments seem negative but I am just saying what we three thought of the Camino. All I am saying is yes please do the pigrimage to Santiago but think carefully about which route to take. Johniewalker has done a brilliant job providing detailed information and I have viewed the...

    Lists of accomodation

    I have returned from the CI this week. It took 5 days but is not a route I would recommend. If you want to walk this route please realise it is not on the flat and requires a lot of uphill work. To train for this walk you need to do a lot of hill walking not long flat walks. It is not a very...
