Travel to Spain - travel to corunia from porto


Expert: Víctor Díaz - 6/25/2008

Question
Hello, I would like to travel to La corunia (Spain- Galicia)from Porto (portugal)and I would like to get there early in the afternoonWhich is the best way to do it?

Answer
Hello Emilios

Alsa links both cities. Seems you can't buy online tickets with origin outside spain, but you can see the route, click in 'rutas y horarios'

select 'pais de orogen' = Portugal, start writing the city of origin and it will show you the cities available to choose. Important write... OPORTO (porto in spanish).

Destination choose España and La Coruña.

Three buses daily, the bus that fits your needs depart at 9h arriving to La coruña at 14:45. Cost 28euros.




Regional train Porto-Valença-Vigo is another option, from vigo you may get to LA Coruña

http://www.cp.pt/StaticFiles/Imagens/PDF/Passageiros/horarios/regionais_2007/por...

morning train arrives to Vigo at 12.12 (spanish time, notice spain is gmt+1 and portugal is gmt).

From vigo take a regional train with Renfe http://www.renfe.es
there is one with departure at 13.43 arriving at 15.55.
Notice, search in renfe site: origin VIGO, Destination A CORUÑA (la coruña in galician).


Probably the best option (arrives earlier) is the bus.

I hope this helps.
