This tour was an amazing experience. Antonio our Tour Leader is quite likely the BEST Tour Leader we have EVER had with any Tour Company and we were very fortunate to have a Tour Leader in training in Emiliano, as well. They were both so full of knowledgable about history, the areas we visited, local customs, language and all sorts of extra things about their own countries too. They were both so kind and helpful to everyone. My husband chipped a tooth and neede a Dentist and Antonio just arranged it, as if it was no bother at all and then made sure my husband didn't miss out on any of the tour we had while they were at the Dentist. Beyond any expectation of ours. We just drank up all the history of these two countries …. there are amazing sights to see and more history to absorb around every corner and of course, as we have found with other Expat Tours, the people we met on tour were a great mix of ages, personalities and customs and all were delightful and interesting to spend our days with. We were sorry to come to the end. Thank you so much Antonio and Emiliano and Sandros, our excellent driver. You are what makes Expat so great
We booked our 2nd Camino with UTracks. Booking was easy and straight forward, even with a few extra days added. The accommodation was great. A good selection and usually very central. The directions to our hotels weren't so good sometimes and we resorted to Google maps on occasion. It was good to have accommodation etc booked so we didn't have to look for accommodation when hot and tired. Would book through them again.
The trip was very good value for money and worth a supplement to stay in a lovely place in Aruza, good preparation and documentation, and well organised from beginning to end. The Melide hotel wasn’t great, as there is little to do in the area and we had from 1 pm.
