How do we (4) get from La Coruna to Sarria ?

[loveitoutdoors]

We four ladies fly into LCG ( La Coruna) on May 13th at 8pm. We sleep in La Coruna that night and make our way to Sarria on 14May. It is an hours drive. Can we get a taxi ? How do we arrange this in advance ? Thanks in advance for your help!

Your best bet is the renfe train. Otherwise you take a bus to Lugo and transfer to a Monbus bus to Sarria. See Sarria website:

Thanks Guys. Yes, our flight from London arrives at 8pm. There are more direct flights to LCG from other countries, btw. We depart from there to Lisbon also. Back to getting to Sarria... any idea of a taxi cost ? Since there are 4 of us, it may be a decent deal. Carol

The distance from La Coruna to Sarria is roughly 125 km. The taxi would need to double it to return to LC. Google the terms 'La Coruna", "Sarria", "taxi" to get a list of companies to query further. For example Suntransfers offers a 4 passenger taxi to Sarria for roughly 42 euros each and an English website. Hope this is helpful for you.

Good luck and Buen camino,

MM.

This is very helpful. While I had a bad experience using Sun Transfers- this gives me an idea of taxi costs. I will have our hotel in A Coruna arrange this. Thank You ! Carol

I've done the train before from La Coruña to Sarria - it's a nice enough ride. Arn listed the train schedule above and that's what I found online as well (http://horarios.renfe.com/HIRRenfeWeb/recorrido.do?O=31412&D=20305&F=14-05-2015&T=12644&G=1&TT=MD&ID=s&FDS=2014-12-14&DT=2 h. 21 min.) . Looks like the cost per ticket will be 13,60€ if that helps you decide (42€ taxi vs. 13,60€).
Buen Camino!
