Our trip on the Portugese Coastal Camino was excellent. They were very easy to work with and their communications were immediate. They took care of all hotels, luggage transfers, most meals and GPS directions. If we had any questions, they were quick to respond. We plan to use their services again.

A great way to see Sicily away from the main tourist areas. There was some mud, some territorial dogs to get past and some stiff climbs often at the end of the day to hill towns. But our hosts and other people we met were very welcoming, the food was great and the scenery made the exertion worthwhile. We recommend this walk.

Everything worked slick; the map on the app worked great, our bags got moved, the places we stayed at were very fine. The only hiccup we had was at the last stop at Berchules; the innkeeper had not been told that we were supposed to have dinner with them. It wasn’t a big deal as we just went to the local pub.

Puglia was beautiful. They did a great job of coordinating bikes, luggage, and routes. The lodging was great for our 7 night stays, except for 1 night, when our group was split into 2 different hotels that were not very close with no advance warning.

Well organised which made the whole trek lot more pleasant. The accommodation was all very good except for one that was average but quite doable. Overall, very pleasant experience, thanks!

We had a wonderful time experiencing Italy on wheels. The e-bikes made it a level field for every biker. The instructions were clear and tell you when you’re off track. I would do another trip with them for sure!
