Greetings!
I'm traveling on June 8, arriving at SdC train station at 2 pm for a 5 pm flight from SQC. I've checked rome2rio, they estimate a taxi to be 50 plus euros for 14 kms. Just wondering if anyone has recent experience taking a taxi from train station to airport, and if this price estimate...
I'm scheduled for 6:30 am flight out of Santiago de Compostela . I guess a taxi is my only option but how do I arrange it so early in the morning.?Also, is there a standard airport transport fee or does anyone know what I should expect to pay? Thanks for any thoughts!
We are wanting to take the High Speed train from Santiago to Madrid in late May.
Does anyone know if the trains get booked out or is it OK to leave it and book online a couple of days before departure.
We are just not sure of the exact day we want to travel and would like to leave our options...
Ecstatic to have field-work approved for 3 weeks in Spain prior to a conference in Paris. I need to be in Paris on the morning of the 24th and while I've had a look on Rome2Rio/Omio, I'm not seeing the easy train I used to get form SdC to Irun that would allow me to walk to Hendaye and then...
I’m trying to book flights for our Porto to Santiago pilgrimage starting September 20th. Round trip to and from Porto seem to be the best prices I’ve found. Is there a train from Santiago to Porto?
Hi, am I correct in assuming I can buy a ticket from the bus driver? I don't speak Spanish and have searched the Tussa webpage on how to buy a ticket but I just can't figure it out.
Moderator note: As indicated in the thread title, this enquiry is about the bus from the city of Santiago, to...
Any experience / recommendations on finding a bus or other transport from Santiago to Valença on a Saturday? I'm hoping to be in Valença on Saturday, 18 March, so I can start there on Sunday, 19 March.
Hey Caminantes,
I was wondering if you could help me out with this query.
As I am planning to return to Madrid from Santiago by train (early May), I wanted to check if it was easy enough to arrive to the station in Santiago and get on a train, or whether it is a busy route during that time of...
Hi everyone
I’m flying into Santiago on 24th of May 23. I’ll be in Santiago from 17.00hrs.
I’m looking for any advice about transport from Santiago to Sarria after 17.00hrs. Buses, trains or even car share ideas.
Thank you
Hi all.
We (2 passengers) arriving Santiago mid May approximately 11:30pm and need a transfer to Sarria directly. We understand cost is high but looking for recommendations or options including reputable companies we should contact. Unfortunately staying in SdC overnight and catching the late...
Quick question,
Which airports in Europe have direct flights into Santiago? Some friends may spend a few days en route before joining up. So far I have Madrid, Dublin, London…. ( And there is the bus from Porto) Thanks.
It looks like I can take a train or a bus from SdC to Porto, although according to Rome2Rio the train seems to involve a transfer, which involves taking a short bus ride.
If anyone has experienced either taking the train or bus to Porto from SdC, or better yet if you've done it both ways, which...
Dear friends, would you please recommend hotel/hostel that is very near or located to the bus stop from Finisterre to Santiago? I missed my bus from Lavacolla to Sarria today because I don't speak the language and people I asked couldn't speak English. I waited for the bus at the wrong side as...
In looking at multi city flights for a trip next year, it seems that with very few exceptions departing out of Santiago adds significantly to the price. Can anyone suggest an airline that flies to Western Canada that also would include Santiago? I know there are cheap flight to Madrid, but...
Hi all,
Sorry if this has been covered before, but I can't find it 🤷🏻♀️
I will get to Santiago on Thursday, will pick up my luggage from the post office, and need to work out accommodation and transport, so I can catch a flight early on Friday.
My flight departs 8.30 and I suppose I should aim...
We will complete our first Camino Frances in early November in SdC. We'll be staying in Santiago for a few days afterward and would like to take the bus out to Finisterre.
In looking at transport, it seems the bus ride will take anywhere between 1.5 and 2.5 hours meaning we will spend...
How difficult is it to get a taxi, mid week, from the Cathedral in Santiago to (or near) the airport? I'm actually staying 12K from the Cathedral with a very early flight in the morning. I'm not excited about the prospects of adding another 12k to my 26k day into Santiago. Thanks!
Are the trains to Madrid from Santiago usually very crowded on a Monday in mid-October?
Is it necessary to prebook train tickets well in advance? Thanks!
