I had such a fantastic time on this trip. The guide Jorges was passionate, knowledgeable and understanding to everyone. The places we stopped and the camaraderie we enjoyed on the Camino was down to the itinerary and the organisation of our guide.
The trips structure was flexible and considerate of everyone’s needs, the guide was able to organise checkpoints throughout the day with the driver and people were able to skip parts if they had an injury or were finding it difficult. The local guides were very passionate and knowledgeable. I’d definitely recommend this trip if you’re wanting to do the Camino.

Think some hotels like the AC Marriot and Hotel Santemar had rather bad wifi. Tryp Zaragoza breakfast restaurant was more like a makeshift communal hall. Rachel and Isabel were fantastic. Despite being stressed by such a large group, things went smoothly. Kudos to them. Local guide in Zaragoza and Barcelona were exceptional
