Cheaper ferries

Thanks for the tip re ferries and using the euro area fo websites. If booking through booking.com etc for accomodation then use the € pricing there too.
Another good tip, which is true for Brittany Ferries, is to decide where you would like to be for 3 nights and book your ferry trip and those 3 nights. This makes a 'package holiday' ABTA covered and cheaper than booking the ferry and paying 3 nights in B&B. We have done this before and will have our 3 nights in Santiago this time. Total cost for 2 people with an upgraded cabin, and staying at the Rosa Rosae, is approx £450GB. We know this locks in our date of arrival in Santiago, last time we booked our first 3 nights at Santillana del Mar so we could visit Altamira and then start our pilgrimage.
