This was our second "leg" of The French Camino and our second time using "Follow the Camino". I can't say enough good things about the experience of working with them. They were accessible, knowledgeable and thorough. As a result our walk went off without a hitch. It was so wonderful knowing that they were taking care of all the details and we were free to focus on the experience. I will continue to recommend them, and to use them for the next stage of my walk!…

We did the Salzkammergut walk in Austria. This is actually organised by their overseas partner Salzkammergut Touristik so it is mainly their performance that is being rated! Positives - walking notes were pretty good. Gves lots of options for shortening or lengthening walks making easier or harder. Baggage transfers almost perfect - only one leg where bags showed up at 5:30pm. Hotels mainly good to excellent. Negatives - hotel in Bad Aussee was a youth hostel and was noisy with school parties. But Bad Aussee is worth a visit. Some hotel choices a bit odd for a walking tour - eg located 3km outside town with limited opportunities for sightseeing/meals after walk.…

We have just completed part of the Portuguese Coastal Camino using Follow the Camino group. The only positives are the transport arrangements, including baggage transport. The main negative was the walking notes/ instructions which were rubbish! We are experienced walkers , but the notes were little help. They mentioned things like recycling bins, but missed out main landmarks , even towns!! Due to this lack of guidance we often walked much longer than the notes stated. We also had, but couldn’t eat, the worst meal I have ever had at Hotel Bahia Bayona. Many of our group have walked other Camino routes , in Spain, using a different organisation, however sadly most are now saying they will never do a Camino walk again and will certainly never use Follow the Camino group again.…

Follow the Camino is so easy to work with and our guide supported all of our group of fourteen pilgrims in any need that we had. They all went above and beyond to help us in so many ways, from responding rapidly to requests and changes to our itinerary, to last-minute arrangements when we got to Spain.…

Robin and all of the individuals of Follow the Camino put together a fantastic trip for us. Our hotels were clean and the proprietors were friendly and helpful. Our meals were wonderful as well. The luggage transfers allowed us to bring along the extra things we would need when we finished walking and traveled to Madrid for a little R and R. The information we received was also beneficial as we prepared and while we were walking. We are already planning our return next year to continue our Camino.…
