    Winging it or Getting a Helping Hand?

    Outfitters are asking me if I have any questions about the quotes they sent me as I just began understanding and searching about the Camino. It is very tempting! Everything seems looked after. You have places to stay every night and you are ensured breakfast and even dinner if you want. Bags are...

    Travel Company versus doing the Camino Frances alone

    In 2015 my husband and I completed the Camino Frances. It was an amazing life changing experience and we would like to walk it again next May. When we did the Camino we did not book accommodation ahead of us but simply enjoyed the freedom and allowed the Camino to provide. I have read that...

    Err… I’m asking for advice this time...There have been quite a few threads on organised ‘camino tours’ and I never paid much attention but now I need them I can’t find them! I walked with a friend this April/May… It didn’t work out. Oh, we got on fine, no problems that side we are very good...

    Booking with a Company - needing suggestions

    I booked my first Camino (Frances) in 2019 with a company called Rayo Travel. They were originally from Alberta (I am from Canada) but then moved to Madrid under the name Camino Your Way. Unfortunately, it looks like this company is no longer in business and I was wondering if anyone could...

    Travel company or do it myself?

    I plan to start my first Camino (Frances) next April, at age 72. I am female, and will be traveling alone at this point. I am trying to decide if I should use a travel company to make hotel reservations (better sleep, assured of a bed, lessen the risk of Covid) vs. staying in albergues...

    leading a camino group

    I have been asked to consider leading a group on a camino. Now I am of the opinion that this is completely unnecessary as it's so easy to just go and do it....but having spoken with a delightful Korean couple on the highway from Sarria, I have come to realise that not everyone is comfortable...

I don't want to walk in a group but would like to make all the arrangements through one of the organisers. Marlycamino get very good reviews on the web and have a walk from Sarrio...

    Tour companies

    Although we have walked over 1000 km on the Camino Frances and the Portuguese, we are getting older (70s) and feel we need some support. Can anyone recommend tour companies that provide van support to carry luggage or to carry us when we get tired? Thanks.

    Tours

    Next year when I do the Camino de Frances I was planning on staying in albergues or hostels along the way without making reservations. A thread last week referencing the albergues being full kind of spooked me. I am now thinking about using a tour company to book my hotels/hostels. I know I will...

    Self-guided tour companies

    Has anyone walked the Coastal route from Porto using a self-guided tour company such as Portugal Green Walks? Their website says they arrange accommodations and luggage transfers and provide a "road book". My husband and I took several long distance walks in Scotland using a self-guided tour...

    Organised tour or do-it-yourself?

    Looking at doing the Camino Frances for the first time in May 2019. I've taken a look at a number of threads but was looking for a comparison between doing it all yourself and an organised walk. I would be traveling solo with the aim of time alone and meeting others on the way. It seems that for...

    First Camino help please: should we depend on Albergues or book nightly arrangements with a company?

    My wife and I are 70years old planning to walk from Sarria to Santiago at the end of September 2018. Should we hope to find Albergues each night or should we book with a company to arrange nightly stays? We've looked into arrangements with Garry at Spanish Adventures and Shanda at Follow the...
