What to expect from the Camino Portuguese: A Documentary

Stingy Nomads: stingynomads.com/camino-portu...
In the video I say I would talk about a time we almost didn't find an Albergue - this was in Pontevedra, a point where the 3 paths of the Camino Portuguese meet up and it becomes really busy just before you his Santiago. We planned to camp so didn't call ahead, then decided later in the hike we wanted a comfy bed, so decided to try our luck and go into town. We got turned away from two places, then the 3rd place the lady pulled some strings and found us a bed in the back. Lesson learned: Call ahead!

    I like your documentary! The information in the beginning and throughout the video, the short clips that capture everyday life, the use of google earth to give us an overview and the good choice of calming music in the background. Keep it up! :)

    I can really recommend the 3 day trip from Santiago to Fisterra. Best way to finish off the Camino, watching the sunset into the ocean by the Fisterra lighthouse.

    Compared to the Camino Frances in Spain, the Camino Portuguese is hopeless. Not enough Abergues, albergues not sign posted or anywhere near the Camino. If I hadnt had the number of a taxi, I am convinced that I would have been seriously ill trying to find the albergue. The infrastructure is totally inadequate. Don't bother.

    I did the Portugues (Litoral > Central > Spiritual) in September. The only place I had a problem finding a bed was Almenteira because it had only one albergue with few beds and it's privately run so it accepts reservations. I had no problems getting a bed elsewhere because I always stayed at municipal albergues which don't allow reservations and I was usually one of the first to arrive.

    This makes me want to go again. I recently watched a KZread that just turned my stomach. I thought, wow, I’d better rethink this. But this KZread! Wow! Im back to knowing I must do this and want to use this same route. Thank you!

    This is an amazing video. I did the central myself a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed that. However I am definitely convinced when I do the Portuguese again I'm going to do the coastal littoral like you did
