Some Caminos are made for a special moment. Alongside our year-round Camino de Santiago group tours, we’ve created a select few departures for pilgrims looking for something more meaningful. Each is a guided small-group walk with an expert local guide, en-suite hotels, breakfast and dinner, and daily luggage transfers. Places are limited and these departures fill quickly, so early booking is recommended.

2027 is a Holy Year on the Camino de Santiago (Xacobeo 2027), as the Feast of St James (25 July) falls on a Sunday — one of the most meaningful years to walk into Santiago. Our Saint James Special group tour is timed to reach Santiago de Compostela for the celebrations, when the city and its cathedral are at their most festive.
As the Camino de Santiago is very well marked, your Camino guide is more of a ‘cultural guide’ than a ‘technical hiking guide’. The guide is not there to show you the way but to give you history, context and insider knowledge that you won’t learn in books.
Camino hotels have a lot of character and are generally family-run. A good hotel is central to the Camino de Santiago Guided Tours experience. After a day of walking, you want to stay in a comfy bed, soak in a long shower and relax. We have selected our hotels for their breakfast and dinner (because a good Spanish meal is an essential experience while on the Camino), as well as their 24/7 reception.
The Camino luggage transfers are a must-have. Each morning, you leave your luggage at the hotel reception at 8am, which will already be there when you arrive at your next hotel at the end of your Camino Walk. It is easy with CaminoWays and it works.
Every group tour includes an expert local guide (fluent English), en-suite rooms in handpicked hotels, breakfast and dinner daily, daily luggage transfers from hotel to hotel, and full Camino travel documents. Flights, lunches and travel insurance are not included.
No. Daily luggage transfers are included on every group tour. You leave your bag at hotel reception by 8am and it's waiting at your next hotel on arrival, so you walk with just a light daypack.
Your guide is a cultural guide rather than a technical hiking guide, because the Camino is very well waymarked. They walk with the group to share history, context and local insight you won't find in a guidebook, and to make sure everyone is looked after.
Group tours use en-suite rooms in handpicked, characterful hotels — often family-run located. Hotels are chosen for comfort and for their breakfast and dinner, a core part of the Camino experience.
Yes. Routes are well-marked with moderate daily distances of roughly 15–20 km, and you have the support of a guide and group throughout. A reasonable level of fitness and some training walks beforehand are all you need.

Yes — group tours are one of the most popular ways to walk the Camino solo. You travel independently but share the journey, meals and guide with a friendly, like-minded group, so you're never walking alone unless you want to.
Yes. We run Women Only group departures guided exclusively for women, ideal for solo female travellers and groups of friends — with two dates on the Camino Francés and the Camino Portugués Coastal.
Do you have a beginner tour? My partner and I are interested around august, Sept this year to celebrate her 60th birthday
Yes, we offer some ‘easy walking’ options. The distance averages 10 to 15km per day. The terrain is hilly but not challenging, with lovely villages: https://caminoways.com/camino-easy-walking-collection
I am interested in the easy walk tour and have questions. Can our flight there and
back home be included. Just needing to figure out cost for next year 2027.
My friend and I would like to do the 18 day Camino from Léon. Do you cover this please?
Do you have any guided group walks in mid to late May 2027? Looking at the Vigo to Santiago version of the Camino. To include luggage transfer and hotel accommodations. Would prefer to be part of a group. This will be my first and I am a fit 67 year old who used to run marathons in my much younger days.
