    I had the most wonderful experience on the Portuguese Camino! Elisa "Eli" Bernardinello was an exceptional tour guide! Her wealth of knowledge, welcoming personality, and guidance to ensure that I had an enjoyable time are what contributed to an unforgettable journey. I would highly recommend this tour to others who are interested in this pilgrimage.

    Really enjoyed the first part in Spain and Portugal, helped especially by the guide. The Moroccan guide was a disappointment, Chefchouen and Fes wonderful, not sure why we went all the way to Marrakech for more of the same, and the tired hotel didn’t help. So pleased the group was a fantastic bunch. We had a ball in spite of other things.

    Does the luggage get transferred?..as I would not be able to carry it .. even if it is 35 lbs

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten August 2023

      Your luggage will be transferred between your accommodation each day, meaning you'll only have to carry a day pack, and your luggage will be waiting at your hotel. We strongly recommend keeping the weight between 15kg / 33lb. Most travellers carry their luggage in a backpack, although an overnight bag with a shoulder strap would suffice if you travel lightly.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten August 2023
