The Camino de Santiago, also known as the Way of Saint James, is one of the most famous pilgrimage routes in Europe. The destination is Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, in the northwest of Spain.

There are many routes from the north, south, east and west. The particular route we take is called the Camino Mozárabe and it begins in Málaga, stretching through the heartlands of Andalucía to Córdoba and beyond, before it meets with another route, La Vía de la Plata, in the city of Mérida in Extremadura.

You’ll be amazed at the nature you’ll see and hear along the way; what could be more uplifting than soaring birdsong to accompany your footsteps?

Each of our camino tours is a combination of luxury and spirituality. Enjoy gourmet food, cultural visits, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, luxury accommodation and of course, the Camino itself.
