jeffyd Posted May 5 #1 Share Posted May 5 We will be docked in Ferrol, Spain on May 10, 2024 from 10 AM to 6 PM and wanted to do a day tour to Santiago de Compostela but can’t seem to find any companies to take us there. Tried SpainDayTours and Tours4Cruisers and both said they don’t have enough people to go. Does anyone know if there are tour companies or taxi drivers at the port that will take you there and back? Thanks. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Jeff Hi, on which company are you sailing? I didn't know Ferrol was a port of call too. From La Coruña it is not hard to go to Santiago but from Ferrol it is more difficult. There are some trains Ferrol-Madrid that calls in Santiago but not useful for a day visit. I have found this taxi trade webpage http://teletaxiferrolterra.es/tarifas/ It seems 1,10 euro/km 14,57 euro/hour waiting Ferrol-Santiago are 100ish km, so 110 euro (and 110 return) Asking to wait for 6 hours, it seems, 310 euro a taxi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffyd Posted May 5 Author #3 Share Posted May 5 Thanks for the quick reply alsserod. We’re on the Seabourn Ovation ship. They have tours to Santiago but I was looking for something more reasonably priced. I appreciate the link to the taxi company. I also sent an email to the Ferrol Tourist Office for contacts and am awaiting a reply. If anyone else has ideas, please share them. Thanks.

sleepingcat Posted May 5 #4 Share Posted May 5 Some info here which I researched earlier this year, then our port call was changed to Vigo because of rough weather.... https://www.caminosantiagocompostela.com/ferrol-visitor-guide-start-camino-ingles/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you ask on your Roll Call if any fellow passengers would be interested in joing the small group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky because an active RC would usually find a few willing to join☹️ I hope you find a different way. Edited May 6 by edinburgher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
