[QUOTE="Doogman, post: 947914, member: 60342"] I have done some self-guided tours on the Camino and done some caminos on my own. I have thoroughly enjoyed them all. There are pros and cons to each methodology, but I would say the important thing is to get out and do it. How you do it, in this context, is less important. If looking at a tour company, just a few of thoughts: 1. I have used them for trips of 10-14 days, and I think it has worked well. I would not book a 35 day trip in this manner. Just too many variables. 2. Watch the length of the stages. Some stages in some routes can be over 30kms. Be sure you are comfortable with the distances required. 3. Do your research. I have heard stories on this forum of exorbitant fees charged by some companies. A simple Google search should give you lots of information on different options. I personally have used Caminoways in the past and always been satisfied. I have no connection to them. [/QUOTE]
