Next year we will continue

We, Jantine and Jolanda, walked the Camino Portugues, from Porto to Tui, just across the border in Spain. What a beautiful country with lovely and nice people, delicious food and tasty Port and wines. :)For us it was the 3rd time that we used the expertise of Annemieke, Roberto and the WAW Travel team. Even during the weekend, Annemiek was available to answer our questions, which was very nice! Everything was well organized again, luggage transport, super nice hotel during an extra day in Porto and Quintas (estate) and hotels along the way, always easily accessible along the route, good digital information about the route and taxi transport to and from the airport. Next year we will continue our route to Santiago de Compostela! WAW Travel, thank you again, we enjoyed it :)

Tailor made trip

What a beautiful Camino it was again, this time from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela and then a beautifully organized camper trip. The personal approach and tailor-made trip were a great experience. WAW listened carefully and took personal wishes into account. WAW was also there for you during the trip. You receive a quick answer and things could still be adjusted. It was a Really Pleasant Reunion with Santiago de Compostela. Thanks WAW travel!
