A fabulous, well-managed and carefully curated hike. Excellent guides, good food and wine, great logistic support, more than comfy accommodation, and super trails and views. Great overall experience and good value for money!

Response from the owner:Hi Vanessa Thanks for your stunning review. It's always so satisfying to see a diverse group of hikers come together on the first night and really have fun the whole week. It was pleasure for us to watch you all have such a super time. Happy trails wherever the next one may be ... Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

Absolutely glorious experience! The Plett Camino delivered on all it promised: great company, views, hiking, delicious food every evening, wonderful venues to stay over, and a soul well nourished in every way. The weather was also perfect! Could not have asked for more. Thank you to the fabulous Camino Team who pull this together, and lovely guides Ricky and Jesse.

Response from the owner:HI Monique ...thanks so much for the time you spent with us ... we had a really fab time with you all and found it really rewarding to be with a smaller group for a change. It changed the intimacy of the experience for us and we found it super rewarding. 😎🔥 We’re really happy that you had fun – safe travels, happy feet, and keep rocking those trails wherever you go! 🥾✨🌈 Catch you on the next adventure! 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🏞️ #HikingHeroes - Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

Amazing adventure. Lovely from start to finish. Great food and excellent accommodation. The guides we awesome

Response from the owner:HI Linda... thanks so much for the review. It was a super week, and also was amazing to spend time with such a small intimate group. We have a few more ladies from Kenton this week, so it seems to be a popular destination ! We’re really happy that you had fun – safe travels, happy feet, and keep rocking those trails wherever you go! Catch you on the next adventure! - Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

Doing the Plett Camino is the best way to be reminded that Plettenberg Bay is one of the most beautiful places on the planet, and that South Africans are the most wonderful hosts. We loved every minute of the adventure – the steep climbs, breathtaking views, rock hopping and ocean splendour. Fabulous company and new friends made for a wonderful escape.

Response from the owner:Hi Marguerite Thanks for this stunning review ... you certainly picked a team of people to join on your hike ! ... we knew by the first evening that it was going to be a lot of fun. It was great to meet you and Wian... Looking forward to seeing you again on the trails ! Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

I can only speak in superlatives about the Plettenberg Camino, from the accomodation, catering, the organisation.....actually the whole experience. I had the most awesome time (perhaps not including Postman James, but I did make it up eventually!) Many thanks to Iain and the entire team for everything you do to make this trip so memorable.

Response from the owner:HI Robyn .. thanks so much for posting this... I know that Postman James is becoming a Plett Hiking Legend, but once you've conquered him, you will never forget it ! ... Thanks again for a stunning week with stunning peeps. All the best Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

We loved every moment! All the admin, briefings, luggage transfers and daily walks went smooth sailing. Plett Camino, you have a winning recipe! Your guides were superb, accommodation excellent and the food was delicious. Our group had the time of our life!

Response from the owner:Hi Karin .. thanks for organising all your ladies to join us on the Camino. You all looked like you had such fun. It was a super week for us and so easy to do what we do in the background while you ladies were having fun. We look forward to hearing about more of your hiking adventures ! Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

I had high expectations of the Plet Camino, but I have to say all my expectations were exceeded. The organization was on point, the venues were clean and comfortable and the food was fantastic. The various hosts were welcoming and went out of there way to make this a great experience. After day 2 we already started researching the next Camino we would be doing. Well done and thank you to all involved

Response from the owner:Hi Kevin ... thanks so much for the review ... we had an awesome week with you guys... we look forward to hearing about your future Caminos and how we shaped up.... see you out there on the trails ! Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

Barry Pardey

I cannot fault anything regarding the organisation and attention to detail provided. The accommodation was varied and all very clean and well run. All the beds were comfortable!

Response from the owner:HI Barry ... thanks for taking the time to send us your review ... What a huge week that was with you guys ... to see you all starting as strangers and leaving as friends was a special thing for us to witness. Thanks again for your part in making it such a special week. All the very best Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

This walk has it all: beautiful trail, incredible views, deluxe lodges, delicious meals, wonderful guides and staff who ensure every detail is attended to for your ultimate experience!

Response from the owner:HI Kristel. We had such a fun week with you guys ... and to see such a diverse team of hikers from various places, come together and leave as such good friends is what the Camino is about for us...
