Hi All
I'm looking for some help please if possible
As an upcoming first time Camino go-er with limited time!
1. Is there an official 100km starting point at Ferrerios? I'm taking my Mother & we have 4 days of walking & want to start as close to 100km as possible (so not starting in Sarria). We're staying in Portomarin so think Ferrerios looks like the closest 100km marker but wonder if there's an official place we can get our passports stamped there?
2. Evening walk - we are planning to walk from Ferrerios to Portomarin on the evening we arrive to get 10km walked so we can walk the next 4 days (90km) stopping in all the places we'd like to stop in & this allows for do-able daily distances for my Mum. Just wondering please is it possible to walk 10km in the evening (at approx 7pm) & to get our passports stamped at this time for us to begin our journey? We plan to drop our luggage off at the hostel in Portomarin first then make our way to the starting point in Ferrerios (via taxi!) to walk back to Portomarin.
3. Taxi from Santiago Airport to Portomarin - as we plan to walk on the evening that we arrive, we don't have time to take the bus from Santiago to Portomarin. I'm thinking of a taxi instead. Can anyone recommend a reasonable taxi company for us to use please? I understand this sounds like a luxury but time is of the essence for us this day & ive planned this within our budget.
Thanks so much in advance.
