What's included and what's not included.
For all Walks
Accommodation is provided in small hotels, inns, rural houses and apartments, including one or two nights in Santiago or Rome. We do not stay in pilgrim dormitories, nor do we stay in 5 star hotels. A few single rooms can be booked but if the group is large, we might have to split the group and book rooms in a different establishment. In Spain and Italy many places have en-suite bathrooms in double rooms while single rooms share a bathroom so if you want a single room with en-suite bathroom every night you will have to pay for single occupancy in a double room. In a couple of villages we might stay in an apartment where bathrooms are shared by the group.
The walk starts with welcome and orientation get together. All land arrangements from the time we meet are included including taxis to bus stations and to and from hotels, plus a private coach to Sarria. An amaWalkers group leader will accompany you for the duration of your trip.
