After completing the 100+ km Camino from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela, we opted for a bus trip to Finisterre. Traveling with Galicia Incoming Services was arranged by Camino Ways. We had a smooth, efficient bus ride with an entertaining bilingual guide. We made a few other stops along the route that were all enjoyable including a picturesque fishing village and waterfall. It was an excellent and relaxing cap after our nine days of walking the Camino.
