ABOUT THIS TRIP
Imagine riding a bike in a route that has been done for more than one thousand years. Going to Santiago by bike is a privilege of experiencing the world history. If you are Catholic you will have an intense immersion, if you practice other religions, you will understand the spiritual force of this pilgrimage.
The way I do it, is in 6 days, that can be shortened to 5 days if you don't have the time. We stay in very comfortable hotels, and luggage transfer will be taken care of. Everyday has a new scenery and the pilgrims along the way will invite us to have a "Bom Camino".
