Thank you to William and Tina you were amazing!!
Response from the owner:It his always so cool to get a review like this. We all do this Camino thing because of the smiles we put on peoples faces. As Steve Jobs once said , "if you haven't found what you love to do, then keep looking".

You will find that all of us at the Camino don't need to look any further.

We're glad you and your team all had fun.

Se you on the trails.

Amazing experience! William and Tina (MrT) were the best guides for me personally on this adventure. Well informed and very caring about our safety and well being during the entire journey. 5 ☆☆☆☆☆ plus Plett Camino♡♡
Response from the owner:Oh wow Belinda, a 5 Star plus ! ... that is certainly our first, and so wonderful to get it so late in our year. It means that we have learned from those who trailed before you , and also that we havent forgotten how to do it right ! 🙂

That you for joining us on another unforgettable week, and thanks you for taking the time to send us your review.

Until next time.
