Thank you so much - just also want to say that when i walked the Camino - st Francis - 800 kms - the arrangements made were excellent - thank you. Please also thank Rasmus for me.
General remarks: This was a very well organised trip. Staff at Spain is More were always very helpful and responded to e-mails very quickly. The documentation was good and arrived in good time to be used during my planning before departure. Hotels, baggage transfers and transfer to Sarria: All ho... Read moretels and baggage arrangements were good. I particularly liked the charming (and helpful) staff at Hostal Casa Benilde in Palas de Rei, the comfortable room and good food at Hotel O Pino (especially the egg & bacon breakfast !), and the whole experience at the Hotel in Santiago. The hotel in Santiago was not only ideally placed adjacent to the old part of the city, but very close to Plaza Galicia, from where I had to catch an early bus to return to the airport. The hotel in Arzua was the least comfortable, with no hot water early in the morning and thin walls between rooms. My impression was not helped by the fact that my room overlooked a road building activity, which was noisy and periodically shook the building from 15.00 until 19.30. There were no problems with my taxi from Lavacolla to Sarria and all the baggage transfers were efficient. Excursion to Finisterre: This day trip was excellent. I appreciated the fact that we were a small group (9 people, I think), in a small mini-coach. The guide, Laura, was first class and translated everything into English for my benefit. She also answered all my questions and took the trouble to find additional information for me. We were not rushed at any time, but had 4 stops at interesting places, and saw some nice scenery while travelling.
Dear Rasmus and company, I am now on my way home to Honolulu. This experience has been fantastic and your company did an exceptional job. I could not be more pleased and I will certainly recommend you to friends who might want to walk the Camino. I walked 360km during those 18 days...and probab... Read morely lost about 5kg along the way in weight! The accommodations were very fine. The place in O Pino was superb!!! The luggage was transported everyone and on time. I return to Honolulu with a deep sense of satisfaction. I have come to appreciate Spain in an entirely new way. I’ve been thinking today that I might like to return at some point and walk the Camino from St. Jean Pied de Port to Pamplona!!!! But, that is for another time.
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday? Getting to the hotel in Caminha after a long straight tarmac stretch. Really enjoyed both Caminha and Baiona. The hotels were good/excellent throughout. 2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday? Pack as li... Read moreght as possible and use the short days to find a laundrette (eg Baiona) 3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation? Certainly the cases, restaurants and accommodation providers benefit from the Camino. Unfortunately, it was disappointing how many 'pilgrims' left rubbish behind (especially toilet paper!) 4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall? Excellent. Spain is More is very good at choosing hotels close to the trail and with amenities nearby. Cannot fault their organisation! Will be coming back to do another one! Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall? 5 *****
The Pilgrim’s Mass is every day in Santiago. As a symbol of welcome, mass begins with a reading of the list the pilgrims who have arrived in Santiago and that have claimed their Compostela within the last 24 hours. Besides their names their nationality and the place from which each pilgrim began, his/her pilgrimage is also read.
