I am to fly from the UK into Vigo in Mid March for two weeks. I would like to do the Camino Finisterre and possibly Ingles so depending on research and advice I may travel away from Camino Portugues after a few days.
Firstly I assume I should get suitable guide books or just maps from the forum here. I take it the maps/guides will give accommodation advice. I will need somewhere in Vigo for a start.
Help would be appreciated.
If you are walking the Portugués, and assuming again that you would like to request the Compostela, I am pretty sure you do not walk enough Kms by starting in Vigo.
HiHi, Vigo to Santiago via the Variante Espiritual, including the boat from Vilanova de Arousa to Padrón, is 111kms, or about 136kms if one walked instead of taking the boat.
If one takes the boat a compostela is still granted, but one would probably have to walk 100kms plus the boat journey, so starting about 20kms before Vigo, in Ramallosa, to be on the safe side.

Hi Jill, this is what I'm planning to do rather than beginning in Tui. Im wondering how it went for you. Did you get your certificate? Did you begin in Ramallosa?
