About this trip
This is a walk, not a sightseeing trip with some steps thrown in. You spend two days getting your bearings in Madrid, then head to Sarria to join the Camino de Santiago on its final 100km stretch into Santiago de Compostela.
The days on the trail are the heart of it — walking through Galician countryside, village to village, alongside pilgrims from all over the world doing the same route for their own reasons. It ends at the Cathedral in Santiago, the traditional finish line for anyone completing the Camino.
What you'll do
- Explore Madrid over two days before setting out
- Begin the pilgrimage in Sarria, on the Camino's final 100km
- Walk through Galician countryside village to village
- Finish at Santiago de Compostela's Cathedral
- Share the trail with pilgrims from around the world
- This is a multi-day walking trip — expect consecutive days on foot, so a reasonable level of fitness helps
- Accommodation includes both private and shared room options
- Guided throughout, so you're not navigating the route alone
Worth it if you want a well-guided, properly paced walk with strong local restaurant choices. Think twice if you're booking via TourRadar instead of direct.
- Guides (Pau and Ivan particularly) consistently went above and beyond, handling group dynamics and individual needs seamlessly.
- Daily walking distances and pace were manageable; weather cooperated and restaurants provided genuine local experiences.
- Booking through TourRadar added unnecessary cost and confusion; book directly with G Adventures instead.
- Trip delivered a personal, introspective experience that resonated differently for each walker—not just a group trudge.
