• We found your office staff to be efficient and courteous, and quite willing to answer any of our pre-tour questions.

• It couldn’t have been more fun for my family (7 out of the 15 on the trip!) to be together for the 2 weeks of the ride. And I can’t thank you all enough for making it so special for Jerry and me. It was our 10th trip, so a FREE one, and we were treated royally! Many times we were given the best room, or one of the best, and I’d forgotten until reminded one day that this was company policy: we had been on more trips than anyone else, and we were the eldest on the trip, (and we were responsible for half the participants signing up?) and we happened to celebrate our 42nd anniversary during the trip. For many reasons, a very special 2 weeks!

• Out of the 6 trips we have done, we think this is the best we’ve taken. We loved leaning about the Camino and seeing the pilgrims.

  Kathy P., Fort Collins, CO

• Thanks for putting together this great tour! It’s great to have high expectations for a cycling vacation and to never be disappointed! Our favorite part was O’ Cebreiro! After the physical challenge of the mountain, coming upon that beautiful little town, the warm taberna, the great food, it was a sensory overload!

  Lani M., Fort Collins, CO

• What was your favorite experience on this trip? The whole trip was really wonderful! Dinners maybe get my vote; or tied with our guides! We loved our trip and can’t wait for the next one! Thanks for everything!

• This tour ranks among the top in my cycling resume, an ‘ExperiencePlus’!

  Gerrie H., Fresh Meadows, NY

• What was your favorite experience on this trip? On Day 13 we road through beautiful farmland on quiet tree lined roads. We stayed that night in a lovely manor house and had another wonderful meal. Complete with music by our fellow riders. I could have stayed for a week!

  Nancy L., Calgary, Alberta

• What a great tour! The experiences, and attention to detail were so appreciated. From the places we stayed, to the wonderful meals to a perfect cycling itinerary, all was done superbly!

  Carla A., Eastchester, NY

• Fantastic tour with incredible guides who had excellent knowledge, language and guiding skills as well as a wonderful experience on the Camino. Impressed with your company!!!

  Annie I., Olympia, WA

• Any future tours will be difficult to compare to our Camino de Santiago trip. It was expertly planned and executed. Communication before and during trip was consistently excellent and satisfyingly personal. I am a lifelong casual athlete but have never been so physically challenged (delightfully so!) as on this bike tour. Spiritually, I was continuously nourished the entire trip. Tour leaders Rick, Fabio and Maria Elena worked as a well-oiled machine – superlatives are inadequate. I will forever savor the memories and friendships of this grand adventure.

  Heidi H., Longview, WA

• What was your favorite experience on this trip? The friendship, the scenery, the culture, the food, the history, the…. just everything. We loved our trip and would do it again tomorrow.

  Gordon B., Calgary, Canada

• The best bicycle tour I have taken — it will be hard to top this one.

  Guy C., Vallejo, CA

• If you go into this tour with an open mind to religious/spiritual opportunity, you will find whatever religion works for you. Very moving experience. The whole trip was great. The climb to O’Cebreiro was incredible.

  Laurie U., Fort Collins, CO

• I have already recommended ExperiencePlus! to people I was traveling back with on the plane. My first time with you….I would look no further for another bicycle touring company.

  Jane M., Nome, AK

• It is not just a bike trip, it is a journey, a pilgrimage. You will feel exhilarated, contemplative, spiritual, exhausted, happy.

  Julie S., Blue Island, IL

• Great trip. Especially given the historic fibre woven into the ride. The hotels were fantastic. The guides were the best. I have no idea how you consistently find such competent people. Keep it up!

  Charlie P., Pasadena, CA

• A blast! A physical challenge, a buzz, lots of laughter over dinners. Guides were terrific.

  Warwick G., Sydney, Australia

  Susan C., Fort Collins, CO

• This tour is a trip of a lifetime. The cultural experience is perfect. While you are not on the Camino in the same way as the peregrinos, it is the perfect amount of time to accomplish the Camino. (I was so glad to be on a bike and we did have the experience of running into bicigrinos.) The bike riding was superb with great routes on well maintained roads. The Spaniards are extremely bike friendly, which added to the bike riding pleasure. The tour guides were always friendly and positive and did so much work. I loved being able to ride following the arrows without have to do any stopping and route finding. Then to arrive at the destination and to give my bike to the guide and take my key up to my room where my luggage was…. that was such a treat!

  Susan M., Telluride, CO

• The Camino de Santiago was an awesome bike tour and a great adventure not to be missed. Experience Plus did a super job with all aspects of this ride.

  Shelley M., Scottsdale, AZ

• How would you describe this tour to a friend? The tour was challenging, opportunity to see Spain as the beautiful country it is and new friends can be made, the tour leaders exceptional.

  Leanne C., Kooyong, Victoria

• How would you describe this tour to a friend? Fabulous, wonderful…ExperiencePlus! booked us into places that we normally wouldn”t consider…like castles, monasteries and glamping! At the end of each day someone took your bike and when you got to your room your luggage was waiting for you.

  Valya K., Fredericksburg, TX

• The cycling was challenging but really fun and beautiful. You really needed to be in decent shape to really enjoy it. Our leaders were phenomenal and the cultural experience was absolutely fantastic.

  Elizabeth L., Albuquerque, NM

• Amazing, lots of fun,tour was well planned. What was your favorite experience on this trip? Riding through the countryside, amazing scenery, the food, walking and experiencing the 7 km Camino path like a pilgrim.

  Rhonda W., Melbourne, Australia

• This tour has all the ”usual” things you find in Europe; beautiful scenery, historical towns, etc, with the added experience of the Camino. Cycling along with the peregrinos, stopping along the way to get your pilgrim”s passport stamped, visiting monasteries that have hosted peregrinos for centuries made this feel like a spiritual experience.

  Jim B., Longmont, CO

• Life-changing. This is no ordinary tour, because it”s the Camino. I”m still there, in spirit. This one has to be repeated…

  Jarmila G., Idledale, CO

• If you can bike, this is a tour of a lifetime. You HAVE to do it. ExperiencePlus! is the best bike tour company on the planet.

  Milan S., Fairport, NY

• How would you describe this tour to a friend? Absolutely a must go! Crossing the Spain from Pyrenees to nearly Atlantic, soaking up the stunning landscape, the history, The Way, not to mention challenging biking, can”t be surpassed.

  Dana S., Fairport, NY

• An amazing, unforgettable experience. Physically challenging/rewarding. Great variety of hotels and food, scenery. We loved staying in the farmhouses and monasteries, especially the farmhouses. The FOOD!! The guides were wonderful! The camaraderie among the group.

  Karen H., Yucaipa, CA

• How would you describe this tour to a friend? Marvelous, enriching and extremely well supported.

  Kenneth N., Mecedon, NY

• The back roads of Northern Spain were a delight and I enjoyed every minute of the cycling, especially following the arrows. Thanks to all who made our tour possible!

  Tim D., Boulder, CO – June 2017

• This was an amazing experience to follow and learn the history of the Camino trail. The food was wonderful the hotels great! The riding was challenging at times, but with a good balance of terrain. The guides were outstanding and we had a very special group of people.

  Jocelyn S., Boulder, CO -June 2017

• Fabulous, fun and great riding!!

  Jennifer R., Longmont, CO – June 2017

• For the cyclist, this tour has great roads with little traffic, challenging hills and beautiful scenery. For those into the culture and history, you have a chance to participate in something that has gone on for centuries: seeing the pilgrims, carrying your scallop shell, visiting churches and attending Mass at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.

  Anne K., Portsmouth, RI – August 2017

• It was outstanding. Great route, loved the option to experience walking on the actual Pilgrim trail for 5 miles, the arrow method continues to be a great way to manage the route, excellent guides, great bikes, attention to detail by guides for trouble shooting any problems with bikes, a great way to experience local food, customs. one of the things that made this so special was the credential that we got and the stamps we accumulated along the way. The opportunities to meet Pilgrims who were walking the Camino, the opportunities to attend Mass, the receipt of the final certificate, the opportunity to experience what the medieval pilgrims experienced as they came into Santiago, the 0 Km plaque in the square, the tomb of St. James, embracing the statue of St. James and attending the Pilgrim Mass.

  Kay E., Seattle, WA – August 2017

• A life changing experience.

  Terry B., Larkspur, CA – May 2018

• It was a tremendous experience culturally, artistically, the accommodations were not only excellent but I appreciated the diversity. The food experience was also very good.

  Kevin D., Midland Park, NJ – May 2018

• How would you describe this tour to a friend? This tour is about the journey. Your ride on great roads and see some great towns/cities along the way. There are lots of amazing cathedrals, monasteries, and convents along the way. This tour was a nice compliment to Andalucia.

  Mary Ann D., Pleasanton, CA – May 2018

• How would you describe this tour to a friend? Great long ride on historic route. Great food. Good sites. Long stretches with flat and then grades and hills. Happy to join EP on future tour. Likes the arrows on road.

  Trudie W., Oakley, CA – August 2018

• Doing the Camino has been a “bucket-list” item with us for many years, and biking it made total sense! Really on of the most memorable trips and experiences we have ever had. Thanks for such a quality product!

  Stuart F., Saint Paul, MN – August 2018

  Nancy C., Salt Lake City, UT – August 2021

• Amazing tour, not a dull moment, well organized, interesting and challenging.
