I know this is an old thread but I have found it very helpful in working my way through the registration process.
Later this year I will be walking with my wife and with my 3 adult children. I will celebrate a "big" birthday on the Camino.
Yesterday I registered all 5 of us using the link...
There is definitely somewhere to stay in Rüa de Francos!
Your Day8 puzzles me. I assume you are taking the boat from Vilanova? Which would leave you just a few kilometres to walk into Padrón. Pretty much a day off from walking. Is that your plan?
I regret to report that I can't really help you!
In 2022 we decided to walk the "official" route and did not walk through Cambados. We (of course) got our Compostelas.
Last year we walked it again and this time we walked through Cambados, where we stayed, and then on to Vilanova but we did not...
You must have a magic wand! I've been tracking the weather around Vigo for the last couple of weeks and it's always looked very mixed, in other words typical Galician weather!
And yes, I would like some sun. I have never known weather like this in the UK. I watch the rain pour down and read...
Ah, I think we were talking at cross purposes!
I was asking if there was a bus from Vila Nova de Cerveira into A Guarda.
Your last post suggests that yes, it is possible to take a cab.
So bus from airport to Vila Nova de Cerveira and then taxi into A Guarda?
100€? Staying a night and starting the next day sounds like a better and cheaper option!
And I don't ming you asking at all about my plans. Always good to have someone take an interest!
I have some flexibility on dates. I was thinking of walking middle of next month (April) but may push it...
This sounds like a good option. I especially like that the bus ride starts from the airport!
It looks like the walk from Vila Nova de Cerveira into A Guarda is more than an evenings stroll. 14km? I'm not sure I will want to do that after a day of travel. Were there options for a bus or a taxi?
Doug, this is super-helpful. Thank you so much for taking the time to dig around and find this information.
This distinction between Sao Bento and Campanha helps clarify things. When I looked at Rome2Rio it was suggesting Campanha and then change and on to Sao Bento which was when I started to...
I am planning a walk starting in A Guarda and following the Portugues Coastal but getting to A Guarda does not look easy.
I will be flying out from the UK which gives me options of flying into Santiago or Porto (both of which offer frequent flights) or into Vigo which is geographically closer...
I have flights booked and paid for from London Stansted direct to Vigo on 30 May with Ryanair. My flight is no longer showing on the Ryanair website and, in fact, there are no flights showing on this route for the 3 weeks 6 May to 30 May. Having just spent the best part of an hour queueing and...
Can I mention News In Slow Spanish.

I've been studying Spanish for a number of years and this is the best App I've found. by a country mile.
You can choose between "Spanish (Spain)" which is Castillian and "Spanish (Latino)" which is South American.
