Enjoy the quieter trail of the English Way
Step onto the historic Camino Ingles with this self-guided walking tour, journeying from the Atlantic port of Ferrol to the revered Santiago de Compostela in just 8 days. Ideal for experienced travelers and seniors who value cultural depth over crowds, this trip follows the traditional English Way, once traversed by pilgrims arriving by sea from England, Ireland, and northern Europe.
Experience the tranquil charm of Galicia as you pass through classic seaside towns, fragrant eucalyptus woodlands, and rolling meadows dotted with vineyards. The route is notably quieter than the bustling French Camino, yet brims with centuries-old churches, monasteries, and iconic stone crosses marking your path. By starting in Ferrol, you'll not only enjoy the scenic landscapes but also qualify for the coveted Compostela certificate, a unique highlight of this walking tour.
With accommodation, daily meals, and transport all arranged, you can focus on the journey, whether you’re seeking spiritual connection or simply a meditative escape into Spain’s lush northwest. The main appeal of this tour package lies in its blend of history, coastal vistas, and the chance to walk a less-traveled pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela.
