I did Porto to Tui in June and would appreciate some tips regarding the last leg (Central route), which I am hoping to do in October. I have the Brierley map book, which I found useful in June.
A. I need to use baggage service (Tuitrans) so cannot improvise on accommodation. Also I prefer to stay in pension/hotels (due to shyness and revolting idiosyncrasies). Any suggestions on how to locate and book these in advance? I have used Booking.com, but found it difficult to relate to the Camino trail, and there are omissions of course of the more modest places. Also, any particular recommendations of places to stay along the way (using Brier's stop points: Tui - Porrino - Redondela - Pontevedra - Caldas --Padron)?
B. I'm in no hurry so was considering overnight in Teo. Any recommendations for accommodation there, or how to find it before leaving?
C. Apart from Pontevedra, is there anywhere else sufficiently interesting to spend an extra day?
All information most gratefully received!
Thanks, Alex (UK)
