Monbus only has one bus a day from Santiago to Sarria I believe. Otherwise you bus to Lugo and then catch a bus from there to Sarria. There will be more daily options for this. The current schedule and the July schedule will be similar.

I often suggest walking the last part of the Camino Primitivo from Lugo for folks wanting to do 100 km to Santiago. The Primitivo joins the CF at Melida but there are alternative ways to Santiago. I say suggest instead of recommend because I've not done this walk myself. Lugo has a two kilometer walkable on top Roman wall encircling the old city.

After Santiago you may enjoy walking to the ocean at Finisterre, another 90 km, usually done in three days and more often in four than two. Decent bus service back to Santiago.
We did this as well last September. The only bus was at 11 am. We purchased bus tickets ahead of time. We got a taxi from our hotel in Santiago to the Santiago bus station. It was not expensive.Hello all, first time doing this. We are starting our walk from Sarria. We need to get from Santiago to Sarria in July. I can only see a daily bus leaving Santiago at 11.00am. Can anyone advise on this or know other options? Thanks
We're going Santiago to Sarria this September. Where did you get your bus tickets, how much and how far in advance did you purchase? Thanks.We did this as well last September.

We got our tickets online at the Monbus website about 3-4 weeks before our trip. They were 7 € per person.We're going Santiago to Sarria this September. Where did you get your bus tickets, how much and how far in advance did you purchase? Thanks.
Addendum, I hear taxis are in short supply in Santiago this year. You may want to reserve a cab the night before if you plan on taking a taxi to the Santiago bus station.We got our tickets online at the Monbus website about 3-4 weeks before our trip. They were 7 € per person.
Hello fellow travellerI caught one (of the many) busses from Santiago to Sarria via Lugo and had enought time to explore the beautiful Lugo city walls and grab a bit of lunch in Lugo before catching my connection to Sarria. I arrived in Sarria around 2:30pm and then walked from there to Portomarin and the trail wasn't the least bit busy at that time of afternoon.
I purchased my two bus tickets on the day that I travelled. I travelled on Tuesday the 16th July 2019. Neither bus was particularly busy or crowded.Hello fellow traveller
I am trying to get from Santiago on June 11 2024 to Sarria where I hope to walk back to Santiago doing the last 100 km
Trying to book a bus is just impossible
The company say they are not doing bookings yet ? Monbus are giving me no information and it’s very frustrating
How long in advance did you get to book your bus ticket ?
Would appreciate any information
I know you have to get to Lugo first and another bus to Sarria .
Thanks Fidelma in Australia
Ok! The plan A will be to catch a bus going west to catch a bus going east. That’ll work and it looks like I’ll have plenty of time. Thanks for the tip!There is a bus from the airport to the city centre. I haven't been there, so I can't tell you where the bus stop is, but just ask when you arrive at the airport.
