    Camino First Aid - Free from APOC

    I am unsure. All I can say is APOC no longer approves or sanctions the Camino First Aid book written by Tom and Emmeline Hill.

    Camino First Aid - Free from APOC

    Hello Sillydoll, I am no longer affiliated with the Old Pueblo Chapter of APOC, but will say that APOC no longer approves or sanctions the Camino First Aid book. This change took place while I was still the Coordinator for the group during the beginning of 2016. Sorry I cannot suggest a way...

    Camino First Aid - Free from APOC

    I have removed my original post of May, 2014 as neither American Pilgrims on the Camino nor any chapters, including the Old Pueblo (Tucson) chapter endorse the contents of the book "Camino First Aid 2014". The pdf copy of the book is also no longer available at the link provided.

    Porto to Santiago

    Susan, I run tours on the Camino Portuguese, both on the Traditional and Coastal Routes. We stay in Porto for two nights before beginning the actual walking. But the route out of the city is industrial and busy, it is much nicer to begin walking on the first day at a quieter less busy path...

    combining the coastal /interior routes ?

    I've walked both the traditional inland route as well as the coastal. This summer I will be leading a tour group of Grandparents and Grandchildren on the Coastal from Matosinhos to Vigo. Both routes are fabulous, in fact I will say the Caminho Português is my favorite route to Santiago. Arlène

    Finisterre or Muxia?

    I walked from Santiago to Muxia and then onto Finisterre and back to Santiago this August after completing the Camino Ingles. I loved both towns but Muxia was nicer in my eyes because it was less commercial.
