    I can't say enough about Caspin Journeys. The hosts were wonderful and made us feel like family right away. So well organized and planned out. The views were incredible along the way and even though there was a lot of walking, the pace was comfortable. Every detail was planned perfectly. The food was outstanding, and the small group size made it easy to get to know everyone. Would definitely recommend this tour company to anyone thinking of going to Europe.

    Asked on September 17th, 2022

    If this is a walking tour, what happens when it's raining? Umbrellas or different transport?

    Tour Details
    • Caspin JourneysOperatorWritten September 2022

      When it rains on a walking/hiking tour we put on a waterproof and walk anyway.

  • J

    Jordan

    Asked on March 23rd, 2022

    Must I pay single supplement if travelling alone or is there the option of room share with same gender person?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Caspin JourneysOperatorWritten March 2022

      We are a family run company and are always happy to welcome single women into our small groups. We don't have a system for pairing up people automatically and so if we get two people asking for a buddy, we put them in touch with one another and they decide if they want to share. If not, they obviously need to be ready to pay a single supplement if they want to come on the tour.

    Asked on February 2nd, 2022

    My sister and I are looking to do a Tuscany and Amalfi Coast tour in 2023. I am very interested in your walking tours, they look wonderful! Can you give me some information on how we can do both of these tours?

    Operator
    Tour Details
    • Caspin JourneysOperatorWritten February 2022

      Combining Tuscany and Amalfi in one go is tricky because there is a big gap of time in between them and you would have to fill it! We run all our own tours, so we don't have lots of departures going for each tour during the year. However, if you can find two back-to-back Caspin tours which take your fancy then we would give you a 10% discount on the cheaper one of the two!
