I really enjoyed this camino. It is very well organised, the guides are knowledgeable and focused on the group and the accomodation and food was first class! Well done to Ian and team.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Jacob, for your wonderful review. We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the experience and that the organisation, guiding, accommodation and food all stood out for you. Our guides put a huge amount of passion into every week, so your kind words really mean a lot to the entire team.

Wonderful week exploring the unseen side of Plett walking through the varied biomes in the hills and valleys behind Plettenberg Bay. Outstanding guides and support crew, high standard accommodation and food and wonderful treats and surprises on the way.
Response from the owner:Thank you Bernard. You guys were an amazing group. It's always good to see the bond between groups of hiking friends as they tackle new turf but regale old stories of hikes gone by. Thanks again for the support and happy hiking... Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

Wonderful experience, and the views are magnificent! Worth the trip..
Response from the owner:Hi Charlene, It was such a pleasure having you and Marc with us. So many of the guests were genuinely moved by their interactions with you both. One moment that really stood out was watching you connect with the farmer and his lambs using sign language. It was something special and it touched a lot of people. Wishing you both all the best for your future hikes. Happy hiking Iain and the Plett Camino Team 😊

Breathtaking views, delicious food, well-organised and just an incredibly fun week
Response from the owner:HI Kerike It was a delight to have you and Erika on the trip. We have had a few mother/daughter trips and I must say they have always turned out so well for the ladies concerned. There is plenty of time to really get together and chat in stoning surroundings. We are so glad you had fun. Happy hiking Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

We had a great time - walking, chatting, wining and dining in the most beautiful part of the world - the Garden Route around Plettenberg Bay area.
Response from the owner:Thank you Gill... we had such a stunning week with you guys ... the guides were abuzz with stories of fun and humour had along the way with all of you ... Until we see you again, happy hiking 🙂 Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

We were group 131, and really experienced the expertise built up by the organisers over some time, in all facets of the five days' camino. No bad surprises, only good ones. The atmosphere in which we were welcomed and accompanied was a tremendous boost for individual and group morale and bonding. For those fit enough to do the 80 km with its challenges, this is money very well spent. An unforgettable experience!
Response from the owner:Thank you Wynand. This is an awesome review... we loved having you and Maureen join the group ... it was a superb week all round ... Im not sure who had more fun, you guys or us 🙂 ... see you again when you come through Plett. Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!

A magical few days in a beautiful part of our country (first time for me!) - best way to see Plett through different eyes. A comfortable hike through amazing scenery, different trails and tracks, super comfy accommodation every night and just waaaay too much yummy home cooked food along the way too. Chilled G&T's at the end of each day hit the spot perfectly - as did the refreshing swimming pools! A very well organized little trip - highly recommended, for friends, couples - or go it alone, you won't be "alone" for long! Definitely a trip to remember and would love to do another Camino or two in the not too distant future!
Response from the owner:Hi Jax ... thanks for the feedback ... we had a fabulous week with all of you ... and the pics and memories you left behind were amazing ... Until next time, happy hiking ! Iain and the Plett Camino Team !!
