A well organized and planned 5 day hike. Professional guides with loads of knowledge about the fynbos, landscape and whales.

The past week was definitely a highlight in my 52-year life. Never have I been part of a group that is so extremely well organized, friendly, and caring. The staff of the Hermanus Camino work so well together and they make you feel as if you are the first group they ever dealt with. Everyone is so excited about the work they do and one can see they clearly love the work they do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, It was a life-changing experience that I will recommend to anyone.

This was such a wonderful, life-changing experience. The attention to detail, the food, the accommodation everything was truly perfect! Could not have asked for anything more. Everything was so well thought of. I cannot truly explain the experience but it was not just a walk/hike - but truly a remarkable experience of growth, love and joy amongst our group and the Hermanus Camino Team. Also the steak braai was out of this world!

It is difficult to describe the 5 days in words, even the pictures we took do not do it justice. We were a group of 6 friends who had the time of our lives. The scenery, the accommodation, the food, the company and all the extras all exceeded my expectations. Everything was planned to the T and we never needed to ask for anything. From the guides, to the porters, to the hosts, everyone went out of their way to make the experience as special as possible and they succeeded. Wonderful experience, should be on everyone’s bucket list and I will recommend it to anyone who likes to walk, talk and take in what our beautiful country has to offer.

Thank you so much for providing us with this amazing experience. We loved every minute! It was fun, energizing ànd educational. The places, food and walks were stunning. But what stood out were the people we got to know and spend time with. As a group of ladies only we felt safe and in good hands. And for that we thank you. We are already recommending this Camino to everyone around us, and will keep doing so. Keep up the good work and please relate our deepest gratitude to the Hermanus Camino team!
