UTracks provided the perfect way for my husband and I to walk a lovely part of the Portuguese Camino from Porto to Tui just for a week. The Camino isn’t a luxury vacation, it has a more humble history, and in the past we walked independently, staying in albergues in Spain, with no set daily itinerary on our way to Santiago de Compostela. This time we wanted to walk just a portion of the Portuguese road, with UTracks to do the groundwork and make our reservations for us. The inns and homes chosen to stay in all had charm and convenience and were, without exception, clean and run by friendly people. The route through Northern Portugal is beautiful, and the chosen itinerary alternated between challenging and easy days in order to let us enjoy the charming towns along the way. Well done, and thanks for the good memories, UTracks!
Awesome tour, Many fantastic sights throughout the tour, great experience I'll never forget. Well organised and good value for money. Thanks for all you do. We really appreciated it.
Spiros was a breath of fresh air, his love and knowledge of the island was exceptional. I learnt more from his wisdom about Corfu in the first 4 days than I had the the 25 years I've been visiting Corfu.
The places we visited were an explosion of the senses from breathtaking views to the scent of the herbs and flowers in the woodlands, along with ancient Olive Groves. Walking the complete trail was tough, but worth every blister.
Thanks to Spiros and Marcella this was a truly magical and memorable trip.
Great trip, really interesting to see the ancient sights. Great to experience the culture of Turkey and have time to relax and jump into the Aegean alongside the history. The CEO was excellent with great knowledge, enthusiasm and experience - Ephesus barely had other people in!
A very busy itinerary in which we saw and walked some of the Greek islands, however at any point there were options to arrange to do your ‘own thing’. As a guide overall we walked 125km throughout the whole holiday.
The guide tells you so much which makes the trips so much more interesting and enjoyable. Some of the optional trips are chargeable.
The hotels were varied but all were clean. The breakfasts were adequate and were the same in most hotels. With such a busy schedule you need a good sleep but we did find the mattresses were too firm for us, waking with a few aches and pains!
Bennie was a great guide, he loves his country and was keen to show us all why, this included his love for food and plants.
He took into account the weather and people’s level of fitness to make the experience the most enjoyable.
We had a really good experience on the Zaanse Schans tour with Derek and Pieter. The tour operator were very friendly and organised when getting us signed in at the meeting point, the tour bus had decent space and good AC. Derek was very knowledgeable and spoke at a good pace, so we learnt quite a lot on the trip. Our tour was done in English and Spanish (even the Delft factory has Spanish audio guides). There was a lot to see so not much time for photo stops but plenty of toilet breaks throughout.
