Spain Self-Guided Tours and Trips

Great trip! Well organised, great hotels and evening meals. Bikes were in excellent condition. Communication with company excellent. Only thing we weren’t so keen on was the navigation app so resorted to google maps. Generally really pleased.

The Camino Frances is the latest of many walking holidays UTracks have arranged for me in Spain, Portugal, Italy and Sicily. As usual it was a trouble-free experience, and I hope to continue walking with UTracks as long as I can.

We really loved our Coastal Camino walk. It was beautiful to walk through lots of historic towns and visit many beautiful beaches on the first few stops. The hotels were all good and the one in Lestrove and sensational. The only day which we found tough was walking into Vigo on a very hot day as it seemed like many streets of industrial/suburban walking the last 5 km. Overall a wonderful experience and wish we had done 14 days instead of 12!

My daughter and I completed the 8-day Camino trip and loved it! The accommodation at each destination was clean and comfortable and, in some cases, very boutique and gorgeous. All breakfasts and dinners were terrific; it's always a holiday treat, not having to cook. We especially loved having our bags dropped each day at the next venue. But of course, the main reason we were there was to walk the Camino and that was all we hoped it would be. The stunning countryside, beautiful villages, amazing old churches, cobbled streets, fields of corn, tall gum trees, pilgrims, pilgrim passport stamps, farmyard smells, beautiful silent forests and small streams of clear water, all made for a magical journey. Thank you!

What a fabulous week we had walking in Andalucía, Spain in and around the National Park of Grazalema. Everything worked perfectly: from collection at the train station, great accommodation, transference of baggage and taxi collection between villages. Our hosts where helpful and the accommodation of an excellent standard. And then there was the walk - sublime! A diverse range of tracks through magnificent landscapes, over rocky mountains, across high plains, along paths lined with wild flowers taller than me, and beside rivers. As we were walking in June, there were no other walkers, so if you are planning to walk and socialise, pick a cooler time of year. Would do it all again in a heartbeat!

Bikes pick up was excellent. Biclas and Triclas made sure we had bikes that fitted us and all necessary equipment was provided. Did not have any issues with them. Routes provided were spot on with no issues with navigation. Bear in mind that some parts of the route could not be traversed by bikes so some self made detours are required or bike pushing done. This added to the experience. Luggage transportation was flawless with only a minor delay in one leg due to us being too quick. Accommodations were very good with hot showers and comfortable beds. Only one hotel did not have adequate air conditioning but it was in an isolated country area and staff were fantastic in trying their best to make it better. Breakfasts could have started a little earlier for Camiño travelers as we tried to beat the hottest part of the day. Dinners were good and we never went to sleep hungry. Overall an excellent experience.
