Life's an Adventure
The traditional Camino routes can be up to 1000km in length, taking a month or more to complete. Life’s An Adventure have chosen the most popular routes offering routes from 8-18 days (joining 2 or 3 together), so you can choose your length of pilgrimage travelling from as far as France, or shorter walks across Spain or from Portugal.
Walks have been designed for Australians, allowing you to maximise your time whilst travelling, walking the best sections, staying in the best accommodation along each route; many historical buildings, which were once monasteries but in modern days have been renovated as Grand Hotels in superb locations. Along the way you will savour sensational local produce perfectly matched with wines from the region. Walks include an 8-day Camino de Santiago walk in Spain, an 8-day French Camino highlights walk and an 8-day Camino Portuguese walk or a combination of two or three tours.

Auswalk
Auswalk offers a range of self-guided Camino walks. Walks include luggage transfers, meals and accommodation, pilgrim passport, routes and track notes and 24/7 telephone support. You can choose from the 8-day Camino final stage where you walk the last 100km, the 17-day Camino Frances, the 18-day Camino in style walk, the 15-day Portuguese Camino walk, or the 18-day Portuguese Coastal Camino walk. Any one of these self-guided walks will provide amazing memories.
And the verdict: “You do not know what you don’t know. Auswalk took all the uncertainty and stress out of planning our walk. We have just completed the Portuguese Camino. Auswalk went out of their way to provide the itinerary we wanted for our self-guided walk. Their service providers in Portugal and Spain exceeded our expectations. The accommodations were exceptional and provided the rest and rejuvenation required each night to complete each stage of the 14 day walk. The personalised walking notes were invaluable and certainly ensured the best experiences and hassle free days.” – Peter Spooner
