Self-guided Camino Portugués tour from Tui
Six gentle stages from the Minho border to the cathedral.
Tui is where the Portugués enters Galicia: fewer people than Sarria, shorter days and lively towns to end them in, such as Pontevedra and Caldas de Reis. On a self-guided tour, all you do is walk.
What a self-guided tour includes
A room every night
Booked in a guesthouse, hotel or rural house at the end of each stage.
Luggage transfer
Your bag goes by car from one place to the next; you walk with a daypack.
Breakfast, if you want it
Have it included or leave it free to eat along the way.
Support on the way
A contact number for anything unexpected, from the first stage to the last.

Frequently asked questions
Can I start in Valença instead of Tui?
Yes: Valença sits across the international bridge. Say so in the comments and the plan starts there.
Can I add a night in Pontevedra?
