Experiences with Frontier Holidays

Time of past OR future Camino
2021
Does anyone have any experience with Frontier Holidays? They've set up a walk based on my requirements that seems pretty good (58 days), but I don't have any experience with this company. It's not a group walk just setting up a bed each night.

Note: I've read many of the posts to similar questions and at the risk of being as arrogant as some of the replies please do not:

1) Tell me why I should not use an agent to set things up
2) Extol the virtues of the "adventure"

Just asking a simple question about a provider and don't need any philosophical discussions about the merits of using one.

I'll be 66 when I take the walk and would like to enjoy it as opposed to making everyday a challenge (had enough of that in my life already :) :))

1. I don't know what your cost is but if you're prepared to have an occasional "problem" along the way my guess is that you will reduce your cost by 30%-40%. Maybe that's not important. Everyone (well almost everyone!) is in business to make money.
2. An "adventure" is just that - the desire to open yourself to anything which comes along. I wouldn't have it any other way.
3. I did it the #2 way at 80+ and loved every minute of it.

So you have no experience with the requested agency? Glad you have your way of traveling but I really wanted an answer to the question. :)

Every attempt in the past to control how Members respond has met with abject failure. However, good luck this time around! At 66, you are just a youngster at being cantankerous and controlling in the Forum.;)
