Porto Trekking and Hiking Trips

They supported our Camiño journey by providing excellent accommodation and meals, prompt pickup of luggage along with friendly and hospitable support crew from start to finish. You’ve done it again!

Wow, what a great experience! Thanks to the team, we were well prepared, knowing what we needed to pack, where we were staying & how we needed to prepare ourselves for the walk! And it didn't disappoint. The accommodation was excellent, varied and in all cases a pleasant surprise after a strenuous day on the route. There was nothing more welcoming than arriving at the planned stay for the night, to find your luggage greeting you in the foyer. More so, any query was just a phone call away!

Great selection of accommodation, good accompanying notes, great support - it was brill but the highlight was the confidence we had after a couple of days that our luggage was there in really well chosen accommodation.

We had an amazing experience doing the El Camino with them. All the arrangements went very smoothly and the accommodation was absolutely superb. It was great to arrive after a long walk, and see our luggage sitting in the reception area! Highly recommend using this company, we will do it again!

The majority of the walking days followed the same pattern: Walk for approx 1.5-2 hours then stop for a coffee Walk for approx 2 hours then stop for lunch On the longer days we stopped for a coffee/break in the afternoon too. The trip notes are reasonably accurate with their description of the route and the activity times - this is the time walking, the days are linger when you factor in stops. On warmer days we took longer, on the rainy/cooler days we tended to be a little quicker. Day 6 of walking (day 7 of the trip) the walk is a bit longer than expected. It is about 30 minutes to the harbour but once you get off the boat it was about another 4km to the hotel via Padron. Pay attention to the packing list - on the early days of the walk when we were in Portugal the route was flatter and you could probably get away with trainers but from day 3 of walking (day 4 of the trip) walking boots are an advantage due to the terrain. A good waterproof coat is definitely needed as we got rained on alot. I used a single walking pole for support on the downhill sections from day 3 of walking onwards. You will stay in a mix of hotels - some were very good, others were definitely more on the cheaper side. We also really struggled to get food at a decent time in two of the Spanish hotels as the restaurants weren't open for hot food until 9pm and there was nothing else open nearby any earlier - after a long day of walking we all wanted an earlier meal and an early night.

Excellent accommodation and overall organisation. Although we had a small issue with one of the hotels, it was resolved very quickly and everything went according to plan. Very impressed with them!
