    Hello and Tips

    Just started my search for the right tour next Sept/Oct. I want to do the French way so the whole 500 miles. Where do I find a tour or am I going about it wrong? Do I just show up and hope I can find somewhere to sleep? BTW I am 60 so that does not appeal to me. LOL

    Looking for information about Camino Ways

    All I want to do is get some feedback on Camino Way website group and anyone’s recent experience with them.

    My experience using booking agency for accommodation & bag transport

    FYI I used Santiago Ways to book accommodation & transport main bag along the Francés in June. They were good except one accommodation that did not pick us up when we called as instructed. Santiago Ways had told us to call Casa Roan when we got to Ventas de Naron as the accommodation was 8km...

    Have You Heard of This Company?

    Does anyone know of the company FOLLOW THE CAMINO? Still considering companies to book with as I have posted before but in doing research I have become a bit more confident in doing it myself, until someone mentioned this company and said they are the best. Just thought I would ask.
