English Old town (Cidade Histórica)
Obradoiro and the Cathedral; we stop at the authorised point closest to your hotel and confirm the short walk beforehand.
The airport is in Lavacolla, about 13 km from the Cathedral: 15–25 minutes to central Santiago, under an hour to A Coruña or Sanxenxo and about 1 h 30 min to Sarria or Tui. Zonetransfers meets you in arrivals and drives you straight to your hotel or the hostel where you start walking, at a price fixed when you book and charged per vehicle, not per passenger.
Last updated:
Central Santiago starts at €34 by car (1–4 passengers) and €45 by minivan (5–8). Sarria, the classic start of the last 100 km, is from €145; Tui, on the Portuguese Way, from €175; Fisterra from €129. You pay per vehicle, never per head, and the price is locked when you book.
