Cruise port
Active, especially May–October
Vigo is a busy Atlantic port two hours north of Porto with one of the best seafood scenes in southern Europe and the ferry terminal for the Cíes Islands. It is also a frequent stop on cruise itineraries — many of our Vigo runs are timed to a docking ship. Like Santiago and A Coruña, Vigo is a cross-border long-distance route from Portugal. We quote upfront and the price includes tolls, border and vehicle.
Vigo in a day
Most guests come to Vigo for two reasons: seafood and the Cíes Islands. The seafood is in the Mercado da Pedra and the cluster of restaurants in the old town near Rúa Pescadería; the Cíes Islands are an hour by ferry and require a reservation in summer.
Cruise transfers
If you are docking in Vigo and want to use the day for Santiago de Compostela or even a half-day in Porto, we coordinate cruise-ship pickups and drop-offs to the minute. The price is quoted upfront based on the docking and undocking time.

Frequently asked

About two hours each way, including the bridge crossing into Spain.
Do you do cruise-ship transfers?+

Why is the price not fixed online?+
Cross-border long-distance routing varies with vehicle category, season and any return leg. We quote upfront — usually within a few hours.
Can you handle Cíes Islands logistics?+
We can drop you at the ferry pier and pick you up on return, but the ferry booking itself must be made directly with the ferry operator (seasonal and capacity-limited).
