UK Britain Private Tours and Trips

Walking the trail from mid-April to May was just perfect. The weather started off cool and ended in a heatwave, though each day was taken in its stride. The trail can be challenging - hills, rocky paths and mud! This makes for a wonderful adventure through the French countryside, forests, farmland, and many amazing villages. The selected accommodation was perfect, varying from hostels, homestays and hotels, in remote areas and central villages. The breakfasts and dinners were exceptional, mostly pilgrim-style meals, tasting the local fare, and occasionally five star! The variety was awesome. Take each day at a time, add a couple of rest days and savour every step - those 40 days will come around quickly.

I really enjoyed the self-guided bike trip from Amsterdam to Bruges despite the constant headwind... maybe do the trip in the other direction or rent an e-bike... lol. The accommodations were better than I expected. The app worked well. The bike was fine. Easy start and finish. I will likely do another trip with them in the future.

Very efficient luggage transfer. Good selection of accommodation from superb to average. No one tells you Sarria, the starting point for our trip, is almost impossible to get to and we had to get a very expensive taxi. The walking was much less challenging than we had been led to believe. The portal worked very well and the maps were great, although you'd be hard pushed to get lost with all the signage. Would do it again and from another direction as Santiago is one of the great destinations. Spend a couple of days there after the walk.

The itineraries were good - we enjoyed the variety of terrain: riverside, vineyards, agricultural fields, forests, and villages. The cycling was on dedicated bike paths or quiet country roads. The days went by quickly. Our hotels were charming and comfortable. Our only complaint was the unreliability of the Roadbook and how to be sure we were on the right path. As a result, a few times we ended up on busier roads which was very uncomfortable and no assistance from Roadbook to get back on track.

Good info and preparation details. Helpful communication. Luggage transfer and accommodation all worked smoothly. Online map link (GPX) really useful and worked well in conjunction with daily notes - all good!

The overall trip went quite well. We had a few surprises finding our accommodations being away from our destination, however we were well looked after once we arrived. The app helped us navigate throughout our trip by providing directions as well as information regarding services and travel tips. I will consider using them for my future adventure plans.
