We
shall cross along some of the best conservated natural environments of Southern
Europe. Remote old villages and historic remains will be reached by us and we
shall enjoy nature and wildlife as the ancients did. 
We had a fabulous time on the Camino de Santiago! Everything worked as
it should have and all contact we had with anyone associated with
EATours was very friendly, very helpful and totally professional. You
can be sure that we will be passing the word. A real pleasure...
