    Bathroom stops from Santiago to Porto via bus

    Does anyone know if the ALSA bus to Porto makes bathroom stops? Traveling with a younger child and a 4 hour trip may be to much with no break. Thanks so much!

    Bus to Finisterre / Fisterra

    How close to the lighthouse and beach does the bus drop you off in Finesterria? A fellow pilgrim implied it’s a 2K walk. Trying to figure out the bus route stops.

    Train to Porto Portugal

    Had a few rest days in Santiago and have a feed days to go to Porto Portugal. Looked at the bus and train schedules but it’s confusing. Does all public transportation drop off at the airport? I’d appreciate any help on figuring this out. 🙏

    Halfway Compostela

    Everything was closed when we went through Sahagún. We’ve completed the Camino and have our distance and Compostela documents. Is there a way to request a halfway certificate? Love and gratitude for this forum. It contributed to our success story.

    On the Camino Frances, from which point can you first see the city (not the cathedral)? I’m in Arca do Pino and can see a city off in the distance just before town. Super curious!
