Trekking the Camino de Santiago

Samos → Santiago de Compostela 9 days Up to 16

About this trip

Nine days walking the Galician stretch of the Camino Frances, the best-known route to Santiago de Compostela, in the company of a small group and a guide who knows the trail's history and stories.

Days are spent on foot, following waymarked paths through Galicia's countryside and villages towards the cathedral said to hold the remains of the apostle James. Your luggage is transferred ahead each day, so you walk with just a daypack.

It is as much about the people you meet as the miles you cover — the shared rhythm of walking with pilgrims from all over tends to bring the group together.

What you'll do

  • Walk the Camino Frances through Galicia to Santiago de Compostela
  • Arrive at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, traditional burial site of St James
  • Learn the region's history and Camino traditions from your tour leader
  • Daily luggage transfers between overnight stops
  • Share the trail with fellow pilgrims from around the world
Good to know
  • Moderate pace with daily walking over multiple consecutive days
  • Private rooms each night rather than shared pilgrim dormitories
  • Luggage is transferred for you, so you only carry a daypack while walking
