[QUOTE="nickpellatt, post: 770618, member: 89736"] Sorry Bob :( I keep coming back to this thread trying to be more positive, but from looking at other threads the negatives kinda remain (long stages / industrial areas / walking on main roads). Some of the experience may depend on the type of Camino you walk though perhaps. I met someone on the Norte who disagreed with my Portuguese experience, but he was staying in pensions and hotels the whole way. My Camino's are on a budget and that leads to a different experience. I still can't get past some of the very poor service though ... on a few occasions I entered 'the last cafe / shop before a 15km stretch / a large hill', and found them ill-prepared for pilgrims with no food other than crisps and chocolate bars. The polar opposite to Spain where enterprising individuals set up at the roadside for pilgrims. A positive could be in the nature of some of the towns though, Tomar etc ... I'm not one for really exploring towns though ... It's all about the walk for me. [/QUOTE]
