This was a once in a lifetime experience! Chris' expertise across all aspects of cultural,
food and wine and historical highlights, paired with his logistical, guiding and safety
knowledge ensured that we got to see and experience the best that the Camino has to
offer. His significant experience in knowing the Camino de Santiago so well, coupled with
Spanish Celebrity Chef Javier Codina of Moda Restaurant, whose passion and love of food,
family and shared experiences, made this tour simply amazing for our whole group. Across
the first week, we travelled by luxury small mini-bus and got to experience multiple
Michelin Star restaurants - a number of which opened just for our group, as well as the
amazing local food and wine in more traditional restaurants and cafes. This was coupled
with seeing and exploring some of the key Camino towns and cities, ensuring we got to see
all the best and most impactful parts of what the first 600km or so of the Camino Frances
experience has to offer. In the second week we started our Camino pilgrimage,
commencing the 114km walk from Sarria arriving in Santiago de Compostela in the
morning as the sun came up. Thanks to Chris' expert guiding experience, we were very well
prepared in navigating, walking and looking after our feet (!!) and ensuring that we enjoyed
the experience along The Way. Safety and wellbeing were a number one priority and we
couldn't have asked for a better person to look after us all - particularly since our group
ranged in age from 53 to 84. Chris sourced was the best accommodation available along
the Camino route (4-5 star) making the end of a long day of walking very relaxing. The two
luxury mini-buses also operated as support vehicles, allowing a lot of flexibility for those in
the group that did not wish or weren't able to walk the whole distance day-to-day. A huge
thank you to Chris, Javier and Marco for this incredible Camino Frances experience!! it will
be one we will all remember as a one in a lifetime bucket list adventure!
