A Walking Tour In Northern Spain
Embark on a memorable journey along northern Spain’s legendary Camino de Santiago, the historic pilgrimage route that has welcomed travelers for over a thousand years. This active program follows the Way of St. James through wooded hills, wildflower-strewn fields, and breathtaking landscapes, culminating at the magnificent Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia.
Discover a dazzling array of art and UNESCO-listed architecture along the way, including Romanesque and Gothic cathedrals and monasteries in Nájera, Burgos, León, and Santiago de Compostela. Experience the haunting beauty of Gregorian chants performed by the renowned monks of Santo Domingo de Silos, and witness the iconic Botafumeiro ritual during midday Mass in Santiago’s cathedral.
Enjoy the warmth and culture of the region, savoring exquisite cuisine, regional wines, and the hospitality of centuries-old paradores (historic hotels). Daily walks along the Camino average 3.5 miles, with scheduled rest days to explore the surrounding towns and landmarks at a relaxed pace.
