Camino Portugal March/April 2018
Kia ora and greetings, I'm. a kiwi woman in my early 60s planning to walk solo (but hoping to meet others) from Porto leaving around March 18th. This forum is very useful as I've had most of my questions answered so thanks everybody! Im still not sure though, whether accomodation will be open this early. I'd love to hear of others who have walked in late March (I know it's likely to rain) and if not whether there are enough places to stay if Iwant to walk15..20ks a day.realistically. Also does anyone know roughly how much it costs to have gear carried as I think I will use this option and enjoy the walking. And if anyone else is thinking of going at this time, please I inttoduce yourself! I like my own company but don't want to be alone tbe whole time. I look forward to some responses, Jude

Jude Douglas,
Welcome to the forum!
Luggage/backpack transport
from Porto to SdC is offered by TuiTrans. Here is their English web.

Within Spain but on the Portuguese Camino the Spanish Correos will also transport backpacks and luggage. See more info in English on their web.

Happy planning and Bom caminho!
