Hi, Does anyone have advice/tips on how to get from Porto (town or Airport) to Sarria by Bus or Train, and then from SDC by train back to Madrid?

Hi @Pontypilgrim and welcome to the Forum!
As far as going from Porto to Sarria, do check out Rome2Rio. It may be that the easiest option will be to take the bus from Porto to Santiago, then the bus to Lugo, then the bus to Sarria. BUT I haven't researched it yet so I'm just spit-balling.

Once you're in Santiago, it's a direct train ride from SdC to Madrid. Renfe.com or Omio.com can show you timetables and allow you to purchase tickets.

Enjoy all the planning and Buen Camino!

I agree with Natefaith. I would add, however, that depending on your flight arrival, there are several buses each day from Porto Airport direct to SdC. Check ALSA App or ALSA website. Tickets can bought online (printed, and/or stored on 'phone App) Bus Stop at the Airport is the last to the right coming out of the Terminal. I may be wrong but I do not think you can buy tickets when you arrive, both in the airport or off the driver.
