The Way of St. James Walking Trips

I followed the instructions regarding labeling my luggage precisely but even so my bag still didn’t show up on the first day. Travel light should be stressed as many hotels involve hauling your bag up many flights of stairs. Lifts are rare. Meals were mostly excellent.

This is the third Camino that my wife and I have hiked a section of and it did not disappoint. We hiked from Le Puy to Conques. The scenery was beautiful and they delivered everything as promised. The accommodations were all located well, they were clean and our luggage was waiting each day. The GUIBO app worked very well, although I think that some more data around daily landmarks and items of interest could be loaded in to help with planning things such as food and water for the coming two days. Having the demi pension worked very well as restaurant choices were very limited in the small towns that we traveled through. We also thought they did a great job in breaking up the stages to manageable distances making the hiking very pleasant. This was our second trip using them. They are a class act and we look forward to using them again on future trips.

French Camino went smoothly. The baggage transport and accommodation could not be faulted. The owners of each house we stayed in were great hosts, not to mention excellent chefs. The walk itself was well marked and the app that they provided was very accurate. Would use them again!!!!

The trip, Walking in Ardeche, was a great experience. This area of France is truly a hidden gem. All of the hikes were well planned and our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the area as well as plants, trees and birds. The accommodations were excellent with great food and very comfortable rooms. I would highly recommend this trip.

Organised well, quality accommodation, and the fact that dinners were included most of the time was very welcome and a fun way to share food at communal tables. The app and track notes were easy to follow and worked well.

Food Lover's Camino was a great trip for enjoying both highlights of The French Camino and a wide variety of food experiences. The first two days of walking were harder than the rest of the trip. We were lucky to have glorious weather and be accompanied by the ever cheerful Jaclyn and the ever helpful Jerome. As a solo traveller it was well suited to my needs. I would strongly urge anyone joining in the future to spend the day before the trip starts in Le Puy as it is market day.
