Join us in 2023 for an 8 day adventure in Basque Country.
Travelers will start their adventure by spending the first night in Santiago de Compostela. The group will ride a bus to Sarria to begin the trek back to Santiago.
The Camino de Santiago is considered a bucket list destination for many people, whether you consider yourself a spiritual person or not. We will be exploring faith and spirituality during a day. Participants will be walking approximately 13 miles a day with other pilgrims on the journey and staying in fine accommodations with your group.
