Many questions about the Camino are being asked. Here are some details.
Camino de Santiago
Here are some highlights of the trip:
Upon arrival, we will take a bus to Ávila, home of St. Teresa of Ávila, then continue to Salamanca, where we will spend the night. The following day, we will tour Salamanca before traveling to Sarria, our starting point for the Camino.
We will begin walking on Wednesday, May 19, covering up to 15 miles per day. On Monday, May 24, we will arrive in Santiago de Compostela. Since this is a Holy Year, we will have the special opportunity to enter the Cathedral of Santiago through the Holy Door!
After spending the night in Santiago, we will travel to Fátima, Portugal, where we will spend two nights. Before heading home, we will enjoy a brief city tour of Lisbon.
Cost and Registration
For a group of up to 24 people, the trip cost, excluding airfare, is $1,967 per person.
We estimate airfare at about $1,000 per person. Once everyone has signed up, we can finalize the airfare costs.
That puts our estimated total trip cost at approximately $3,000 per person.
If you plan to join us, please confirm by Wednesday, November 18th and submit your $500 deposit.
This will allow us to finalize the arrangements. This promises to be a wonderful opportunity to experience the faith, history, and beauty of Spain and Portugal while walking the Camino together. And what a special blessing to celebrate our arrival in Santiago during a Holy Year!
