I walked the Camino with no expectations, I just wanted to get away and it seemed to be a good choice for being alone, active and still safe. What I got from this trip was so much more. I ended up with scenes of nature, culture, history and my mind automatically cleaned up as I walked. I made peace with whatever decisions I have to make when I’m back. It will be okay. I’m more relaxed now and strangely enough, more organized. And the top bonus is the beautiful friends I gained along the way…
Awesome trip, awesome guide What experiences! What fun! What a guide! Roberto’s immense knowledge, experience and efficiency ensured we had a superb trip including our emergency evacuation by speedboat at 4am from rioting Panama. Roberto’s ability to rejig the trip, rearranging routes, accommodation and excursions was noteworthy. We were exhorted to ride, but never too hard, fed and watered well at every opportunity, educated comprehensively about farming, history, culture, politics and geography but never too much. We went bananas over pineapples and didn’t pine for chocolate! The well maintained bikes were good in CR and okish in N. The drivers worked very hard in the background, admirably navigating and usually avoiding any speedbumps. We had an excellent cohesive group who were good friends at the end of the trip.
Was a really good way to see the highlights of Spain and Portugal and weather was fantastic throughout the trip. Would definitely recommend this trip to those who want to see the highlights.
