    Train Times and Connecting from Porto Airport

    Another option: bus or train from Porto to Valenca. Then you start across the river in Tui. Many lovely towns from there to Santiago.

    How to get from Lisbon airport to Porto?

    I’ve done two options: 1) take the subway to Oriente station and take the train to Porto. Totally manageable and a long enough ride to catch a nap before arriving. Or 2) fly from Lisbon to Porto. About 60 mins. Arrive at an airport that’s on a subway line. Faster. No naps.

    Pamplona Airport to Zariquiequi

    The thing about that airport is there was (is?) no city bus that runs to it, so I ended up walking into town. It’s a fine route that’s mostly sidewalks albeit not terribly scenic. If you’ve done the walk into Burgos before, it’s a bit like that.

    Be careful booking bus on Alsa app

    Probably worth considering opting for paying by credit card for things like that. That way, you can quickly dispute charges. Anyhow, these things usually work themselves out.
