For long-distance hikes on La Gomera, however, there is now the option of booking individual luggage transport by taxi!<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks at this point to Sigrid, who researched this brilliantly and was the first to try it out in 2020 (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/en\/more-variants\/#comment-5376\">Sigrid&#039;s detailed comment<\/a>)! Many thanks also to Tina, who has come up with a perhaps even better variant in 2026 (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/en\/more-variants\/#comment-6512\">Comment from Tina<\/a>). I am presenting both variants here until further notice.<\/p>\n<p>If you plan accordingly, luggage transport by taxi is only necessary on three out of six days. Tour planning works like this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>On the first day: travel by bus (luggage included) directly to Valle Gran Rey. There you will stay 2 nights in a row.<\/li>\n<li>From Valle Gran Rey, stage 1 is either hiked normally or backwards\/uphill (bus journey with line 1, see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/en\/bus-lines-on-la-gomera-line-1-valle-gran-rey-san-sebastian\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener ugc\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Stage 2 follows the next day. Return by bus to Valle Gran Rey.<\/li>\n<li>The trip to the starting point of stage 3 is by taxi, which then takes the luggage to Vallehermoso.<\/li>\n<li>On stages 4 and 5, the luggage will be transported by taxi.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, two nights in San Sebasti\u00e1n are necessary (after stage 6 return by bus).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-28045-0-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-28045-0-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-28045\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Auf-Etappe-2-Blick-bis-auf-die-Nachbarinsel-La-Palma.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Auf-Etappe-2-Blick-bis-auf-die-Nachbarinsel-La-Palma.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Auf-Etappe-2-Blick-bis-auf-die-Nachbarinsel-La-Palma-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Auf-Etappe-2-Blick-bis-auf-die-Nachbarinsel-La-Palma-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Auf-Etappe-2-Blick-bis-auf-die-Nachbarinsel-La-Palma-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" title=\"Hauling your own luggage isn&#039;t for everyone\" alt=\"\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"widget-title\">Hauling your own luggage isn&#039;t for everyone<\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-28045-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-28045-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-28045-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"widget-title\">Book luggage transport by taxi (variant as of 2026)<\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>Based on Tina's research (as of May 2026), we can recommend the taxi driver Javier Barroso (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/en\/more-variants\/#comment-6512\">https:\/\/www.rundwanderung-lagomera.de\/weitere-varianten\/#comment-6512<\/a>).

Since Goyo only speaks a few words of English, it makes sense to translate e-mails using &quot;Google Translate&quot; (Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/translate.google.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">translate.google.com<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>Luggage transport is offered for the following sections: Valle Gran Rey - Vallehermoso - Hermigua - San Sebasti\u00e1n (3 stages).<\/li>\n<li>Price: all-inclusive approx. 150\u20ac for 1-4 persons for all three stages. Payment is made in cash on the first trip.<\/li>\n<li>Goyo&#039;s taxi company collaborates with other taxi drivers on La Gomera (especially in Valle Gran Rey) if necessary.<\/li>\n<li>The luggage transport takes place in the morning (in most accommodations the reception is manned throughout the morning).<\/li>\n<li>Baggage should be labeled with a name tag.<\/li>\n<li>Booking requests should be sent by email at least 10 days in advance.
