Camino Portugues in Charming Hotels: Last 100km

In Porto today, you’ll be met and transferred to Tui, where you’ll settle into your first accommodation and receive an in-person briefing on the journey ahead. The briefing will provide an overview of the itinerary, key details, and highlights of the days to come.

The rest of the day is yours to explore Tui, a historic riverside town on the Spanish-Portuguese border. Wander its atmospheric streets, visit the impressive Tui Cathedral, and enjoy your first taste of Galician culture and cuisine before setting out on the Camino Portugués.

Leaving the buzzing streets and gorgeous architecture of Tui behind you, it’s time to set off for your first day on the Camion Portugues. Today you will walk through lovely Galician countryside and enjoy the shade of peaceful woodland as you make your way to O Porriño.

At the end of the stage, a transfer will collect you to bring you to your next charming stay in Redondela.

The walk from Redondela to Pontevedra is a varied and rewarding stage of the Camino Portugués, combining quiet country lanes, peaceful woodland paths, and small Galician villages. The route climbs gradually out of Redondela before descending toward the beautiful Ría de Vigo, with lovely coastal and countryside views along the way. After passing through the historic village of Arcade, known for its oysters, the trail continues across the medieval Pontesampaio Bridge and through forested paths and rural hamlets before reaching Pontevedra, one of Galicia’s most attractive historic cities.

Leaving the historic streets of Pontevedra behind, the Camino soon returns to the quieter landscapes of rural Galicia. Much of the day is spent following peaceful country lanes, forest trails, and pathways through vineyards and small villages, with stone crosses and historic churches adding character along the route. The walk ends in Caldas de Reis, a welcoming spa town known for its natural thermal springs and relaxed atmosphere.

After a delicious breakfast, set out from Caldas de Reis for another beautiful day on the Camino Portugués. The route winds through quiet villages, eucalyptus forests, and gently rolling Galician countryside, with plenty of peaceful stretches to settle into the rhythm of the trail. Your destination is Padrón, a town deeply connected to the legend of Saint James and also known for its famous Padrón peppers, offering a fitting blend of history, culture, and local flavour at the end of the day.

Today marks the final and most momentous stage of your Camino Portugués. From Padrón, the trail continues through rural villages, leafy woodland, and the rolling landscapes of Galicia as you make your way toward Santiago de Compostela. The sense of anticipation grows with each passing kilometre, culminating in the unforgettable moment you enter the Praza do Obradoiro and stand before the magnificent Santiago Cathedral. After days on the trail, arriving at the end of the Camino is a powerful achievement and a moment to celebrate everything the journey has taken to reach.

Today marks the end of your tour. An included transfer will be arranged according to your onward travel plans for a smooth departure. Alternatively, extend your journey with an extra night in Santiago de Compostela or continue exploring elsewhere in Spain or Portugal.
