Buses from Santiago de Compostela to Sarria

Time of past OR future Camino
June 2016
Hi guys,

I am getting into Santiago de Compostela in June on a Thursday. I hope to drop off my luggage in Santiago de Compostela and then catch a bus from there to Sarria in order to start walking the next day. I get in at about 9am. Does anyone know of a bus that travels from Santiago de Compostela to Sarria? And the regular departures?

Thanks for the help!

Emily
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Empresa Freire operates buses from Santiago (and pick up at Santiago (labacolla) Airport) to Lugo.

Empresa Monforte (Monbus) operates buses from Lugo to Monforte de Lemos. The bus stops in Sarria in either direction.

Alternatively;

Empresa Monforte (Monbus) operates buses from Santiago to Monforte de Lemos.

Renfe operates trains from Santiago to Monforte de Lemos (you can also connect to trains to Sarria but the schedule usually doesn't work)

There's just one direct bus from Santiago de Compostela to Sarria and it's in the afternoon and just on working days (from Monday to Friday). For info about schedules: www.monbus.es

Otherwise, you'll have to change buses in either Lugo or Monforte de Lemos as whariwharangi told you. Alternatively, you could make the route by train changing trains in Monforte de Lemos but, as whariwharangi told you too, check schedules. For train schedules and bookings, take a look at www.renfe.com You may need to make a separate search for each leg because the RENFE web isn't very good with options meaning a change of trains along the route.
