Planning to do a section of Portuguese route from A Guarda to Santiago in April 2019. Flying in to Vigo.
I have two questions:
1. How do we get from Vigo to A Guarda (or Caminha) by public transport?
2. Are there any baggage transporters that can take a bag over the proposed route which will probably be over 5 or 6 days?
Many thanks in anticipation
Tony

Looks like there is a bus every 30 minutes but double check with the website of the bus company

https://www.rome2rio.com/map/Vigo/A-Guarda

Not sure about the baggage transport but I used a service to set up hotels when I walked the Camino Portuguese this year and they had a baggage service so there must be services available.

Rome2Rio also shows a BlaBla car option at about $5. Never tried them but thought I would mention it.

At any rate, it should be fairly easy since this is a well traveled route.

Here's the bus timetable http://www.atsahorarios.com/entreguavigo.php

The bus company is called ATSA. You can catch the bus from the Station or there are plenty of other stops as it leaves Vigo in Avenida da Gran Via.

Yes the Spanish Post Office provide a cheap, excellent service https://www.elcaminoconcorreos.com/en/

Alternatively you can use https://tuitrans.com/?lang=en

Buen camino.
