I had a wonderful week walking and trekking in this stunning mountain area. Every day was different and the varied terrain and views were amazing. The hotel owners, Jim and Pilar and their staff made us feel very welcome and the food was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. Our group got on really well and we shared many laughs especially over a cold beer or cider at the end of each day.
Relaxing week walking in Andalucia A great week, with a variety of walks and a comfortable place to stay. The pace of the walks made for a relaxing week, and allowed time to appreciate the beautiful countryside. The Cortijo is a really comfortable place to stay, with lovely food and a warm welcome. The trip to Seville was an added bonus.
We arranged our “Best of the Camino Frances” walking trip. 13 days spent walking, touring, experiencing this historic pilgrimage route. We enjoyed wonderful hotels, paradors, monasteries and other lodging and excellent meals while spending our days walking on the best, most scenic and historic stages of the Way of St James. Our Camino trail guide, Silvia provided a perfect balance of attentive care and information while allowing ample freedom to have our own experience. Despite October rains (for which we were prepared) and a smaller than typical group, everything went perfectly with zero hiccups, thanks to the company, Silvia and our driver, Jose. This was our third active travel trip arranged through them and we remain 100% convinced that we enjoy this well planned, usually self guided traveling method. We have already booked our fourth trip, for next May in Croatia. We are an active retired couple from San Francisco, CA.
