The Way Experiences

Experiencia fantástica: A great cycle trip from Oporto to Santiago, we covered a huge variety of terrain, beautiful scenery and historic towns. Huge rivers roll down to the sea and the upland areas are so full of vineyards, eucalyptus forests and small villages. I loved the cobbled streets and we were looked after so well by Javier and Victor. The food was good too and Javier knew the best local restaurants and bars for lunch stops and dinners. A very enjoyable week that I would highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Porto to Santiago was brilliant because of the organisation, planning by our guide and standard of places we stopped at and stayed over night. It all ran smoothly which is no mean feat for our guide, Luis and driver, Victor with 6 very strong older ladies. The route was great, stops well thought out, service from them both very thoughtful, our bags were in our rooms upon arrival where possible and collected when we were already on our way the next day. I would highly recommend Cumbres Travel, Sarah-Jayne always got back to me with any queries, alterations, no matter what day of the week or time. Buen Camino

Experiencia fantástica: I’d definitely recommend this cycle ride. Very well organised - accommodation very adequate. Electric bikes very good. Our guide Louis and Victor our driver couldn’t have done enough for us. The recommendations of restaurants were always very good. Our group was 8 which is very manageable. Nothing worse biking in a big group. I’d definitely go with this company again. Birdie Dawson

Experiencia fantástica: Very satisfying, engaging experience! I highly recommend it. Nancy Stewart

Experiencia fantástica: We were a small group with a varied amount of experience with mountain biking and Javier made sure that we all were safe and stayed together and made the whole experience really fun and rewarding for everyone. Food we had was perfect and we enjoyed the beautiful Spanish countryside and Portuguese countryside. Wouldn’t change anything!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing trip! Sarah-Jane couldn't have been any more helpful. Everything went really smoothly thanks to her. We have loved Camino Norte. Perfect walking weather, stunning scenery, lovely people, brilliant accomodation. Hopefully we come back to do more.

Experiencia fantástica: We had a great week walking the Spriritual Way (variant).. in spite of a couple of wet days! All the arrangemts worked smoothly (or when a hitch.. cases delivered to the wrong hotel.. that was very quickly rectified). The hotels were comfortable, of good standard and staff helpful. Sarah Jane went out of her way to be helpful and accommodating throughout the booking process.. adjusting plans for our needs. All in all an excellent service.. and a brilliant holiday. Thank you Way Experiences.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing experience with wonderful guide Javier Bartholome who offered his unique insight and extensive experience to ensure our trip was hugely rewarding and enjoyable. The company had thought of everything and the hotel accommodation perfectly chosen. Am already planning my next trip

Experiencia fantástica: From start to finish the Way Experiences looked after our needs with the utmost care. We felt totally supported and secure for the whole journey. The Itinerary was carefully planned and measured out in manageable sections for each day. The directions were very clear. The hotels were lovely: comfortable, clean and extremely hospitable. We had the most wonderful time. The whole experience exceeded our expectations. We cannot recommend it highly enough. Sarah Jane is an absolute gem!

Experiencia fantástica: Last year I along with my sister and four friends did the Portuguese Santiago bicycle trip with Coumbres travel. It was the most amazing thing that I have ever done. Challenging but with our amazing guides, Louis and Diego’s support all along the way, so much fun. The van support was there if needed actually bringing us two picnic lunches in the middle of nowhere. The hotels were well chosen as well as restaurants at night. It was an everchanging grand adventure! I look back on it with such fond memories. I highly recommend this tour. Mary Margaret

Experiencia fantástica: My husband (Robson) and I only have positive comments about our bike tour. Our guide, Javier, was always fantastic, selecting places to take photos and/or eat. Outstanding service, and we plan to do the bike tour from France now!

Experiencia fantástica: Whether you're an experienced pro or a first-timer like me, The Way Experiences know everything you need to know about the Camino de Santiago. They helped me plan the route, booked all my hotels along the way and were happy to adapt as my plans changed. Their communication was excellent throughout. Highly recommended!
