Way of St. James - 110 kilometers: Pilgrimage, nature & self-discovery Imagine walking 110 kilometers through the breathtaking landscape of Galicia, amidst green hills, dense forests and historic towns, while embarking on a journey of self-discovery. This unique pilgrimage is far more than just a hike - it's a chance to leave the daily grind behind, find stillness and connect more deeply with yourself and other like-minded people. On the famous "Camino Francés", you will not only be surrounded by the beauty of nature, but also by the history and culture of the Galicia region, which is reflected in the old churches, villages and pilgrimage sites. Each stage of the trail is more than just a challenge for the body - it is an opportunity for inner contemplation, self-reflection and transformation. What makes this trip so special? - Adventure in community: You will be traveling with a group of people who are looking for new experiences and spiritual moments just like you. Every day offers a new opportunity to make friends and reach your destination together. - Real pilgrimage experience: Experience the true meaning of the Camino de Santiago by walking the original route - from Sarria to Santiago, with all its spiritual and physical challenges. - Mental and physical refreshment: The journey not only provides physical exercise, but also a mental reset. Walking this breathtaking route helps to clear your head, relieve stress and gain new perspectives on life. - Quiet, picturesque stages: The daily stages are chosen to suit beginners and experienced walkers alike - with enough time to enjoy, reflect and experience the surroundings without feeling overwhelmed. This trip is a perfect blend of adventure, self-discovery and community. Not only will you enjoy the breathtaking landscapes, but you will also dive deep into your own journey - a journey to yourself that will enrich you in the long run.

About me: I'm Robin, and I invite you to join me on the Camino de Santiago - a journey that brings body, mind and soul into harmony. As a tour guide with a lot of experience on the Camino de Santiago and other spiritual journeys, I know how valuable it is to experience this kind of challenge in a supportive group. I have organized many retreats and journeys that have enriched people in many different ways, and that is exactly what I would like to make possible for you. I have experienced the Camino de Santiago myself several times and know how transformative this journey can be - both physically and spiritually. For me, this path is not just about walking 110 kilometers, but rather about getting to know yourself better, reflecting deeply and connecting with other pilgrims in a way that goes beyond words. My expectations of the trip: - Community and growth: I am looking forward to the group and the journey together. For me, it is important that everyone in the group feels comfortable, that we can support each other and learn from each other. Everyone goes at their own pace, but as a group we share a special experience. - Self-discovery and inner peace: I expect this trip to be not only a physical challenge, but above all a journey to myself. I hope that each participant will use this opportunity to come to terms with their inner world and perhaps gain a new perspective on life. - Authenticity and mindfulness: On this journey, I want to create authentic experiences where we focus not only on the external impressions, but also on our inner needs and feelings. The Way of St. James is a place of silence and reflection, and I want to create this space for everyone. I look forward to accompanying you on this journey, growing with you and diving into the depths of the pilgrimage experience together. If you are open to change, spiritual growth and unforgettable experiences, then this journey will enrich you. I am here to help you make the most of your Camino - both physically and spiritually. Together we will master the challenge and find the way to ourselves.

Accommodation: The accommodation on this pilgrimage offers a perfect mix of authentic pilgrim hostels and more comfortable private accommodation. At the beginning of the journey, we stay in simple but cozy albergues that offer a traditional pilgrimage experience and space for community. On the next stages, we switch to private guesthouses and small hotels that offer more comfort and privacy as we prepare for the final stages. The journey concludes in a historic hotel in Santiago de Compostela, right near the cathedral, to round off the journey in style and refresh. Don't miss the chance to be a part of this unique experience - the Camino de Santiago is waiting for you!

5/5
Africa! Robin had not promised too much. The smilling Coast of Africa. :-) Through Robin it was possible to dive deeper into the country than with any package tour. It was fascinating and frightening at the same time how poor a country can be and at the same time how much joy of life its population can have. From barbecues on the beach, school visits, stray faithful dogs, poor villages, boat trips, monkeys, hippos, hotel with pool, history of the country, mosquitoes, traditional food, party, sun, beach, and and and. It was just everything. Robin's guides (Gambians) were very sympathetic, and Robin himself was always at our side and arranged the tour flexibly according to the wishes of the group. Our group was mixed from all parts of Germany. In summary, I can say: It was a trip that enriched me all around. You learn to appreciate what you have, you get to know incredible people. "I am Africa" - Ok, it is not quite there yet, but it was a great first look into an interesting society. :-) I am excited to see how Robin's life in The Gambia develops and wish him and his two four-legged companions all the best for the future! See You.

The trip was a journey with all facets. An incredible experience; nature, beauty, simplicity, poverty through renunciation made this trip an unforgettable experience. Quiet moments of relaxation and enjoyment alternated with experience and memorable impressions. It was a well-balanced and well-organized trip to The Gambia. Thank you for this experience!
