There is always someone wanting to make a quick Euro , (or in your case a quick buck ) you have to look around and find whats best suited for yourselvesToday's New York Times had a few pages at the end of the travel section advertising their "journeys." I guess that's tonier than "tours."
Camino de Santiago made the list -- 11 days, most meals included, several hours walking a day, some paradors, but still -- $6,995 seems outrageous.

Add about $1300 for single supplement, if travelling alone, airfare, and insurance, and you could easily get the cost above $800 a day....... but still -- $6,995 seems outrageous.
Thank you, thank you I might have missed the opportunity to tour so many places I walked through. I am concerned about the 2000 ft assent to OCebriero there was no mention of horses, another experience I missed. I was also hoping to see all the places that "The Way" was filmed. I'm going to save my money for the "Deluxe Journey"Today's New York Times had a few pages at the end of the travel section advertising their "journeys." I guess that's tonier than "tours."

Judge not, people. I wouldn't do it either but if someone else wants to spend their money this way, it's none of my business and Buen Camino to them! At least they are going on a trip instead of sitting at home.
Yikes! That’s worth about three or four Caminos.Today's New York Times had a few pages at the end of the travel section advertising their "journeys." I guess that's tonier than "tours."

And not just 11 days!Yikes! That’s worth about three or four Caminos.
hahaha i been praying to win also & now i include you too in my prayers to win and remember me to take me...But... if I ever win the lottery, a good chunk of money would go to exotic travel with National Geographic! Heck, I'd even offer to take some forum members! If they'd go...

PurpleWe Won the Lottery Trip! Guess I better start buying tickets.
Most of us fall somewhere between these two extremes so I guess this heads back to the proverbial argument of what makes a "True Pilgrim". Sigh.
And Yaying and stgcph, you've got the first two spots on the We Won the Lottery Trip! Guess I better start buying tickets.
To me this is a total illustration of what has gone wrong with the Camino. A luxury holiday with a bit of walking. Just book a flight and start walking. Everything is marked,you cannot get lost,there is loads of accommodation and even if you are slightly out of your comfort zone you will meet lots of great people and have an adventure. A third of the price and ten times the fun.Today's New York Times had a few pages at the end of the travel section advertising their "journeys." I guess that's tonier than "tours."

Extend your tour by adding on a 36 Hours+ trip. Choose from 11 destinations including Mexico City, Reykjavik, Casablanca and Delhi.
Don't forget the assistant tour guides walking behind the Upper West Side Peregrinos whispering in ancient Roman fashion, "Momento mori" ("Remember, you must die!").I quite like the idea of a team following me around with my own portable toilet. For that money, that is the least I'd expect. Oh, and rose petals sprinkled in front of me as I walk, to protect my delicate nose from malodorous fellow walkers.

And after spending your children's inheritance one can, as said at the bottom of the article, spend a bit more in unrelated locations.
Oooooooooooo. Is there a Camino to Casablanca?
