Happy Pilgrim’s
Armando & Nancy, Sacramento
Doing the Camino de Santigo was one of the best trips we have ever done. From lodgings, transportations, meals, to the Camino itself, everything was absolutely fantastic.
Every stage of the Walk was planned in great detail. And all of this was due to our tour guide, Rui, who was so instrumental in making sure that everything was carried out in the greatest detail.

The Camino was like a linear United Nations where I had the chance to become friends with young and old from around the world. Rui’s knowledge of history and fun facts along the way made the Camino spring to life and reminded us that we were walking a very ancient and historic path. Thank you, Rui, for the time, passion, and kindness you showed all of us along The Way. We will be forever grateful.

“Rui was our guide for the Heneghan family’s 2013 Portuguese El Camino and pilgrimage to Fatima. We each had a wonderful experience. Rui is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide!”

“Congratulations on beginning Ultreia y Suseia!
How wonderful to share this adventure with your wife!
We know it will be hugely successful! Rui, you were an excellent guide and enhanced our Camino experience. We deeply appreciated your professionalism, and found you engaging, helpful, and fun.
We loved walking the Camino! It is hard to describe the experience to someone who has never done it.
We think of our time on the Camino very often, and it includes thoughts of you and our time together walking.
Much success!!”

I was very fortunate to have Rui as one of my tour guide for my first Camino. He encouraged me when I was tired and didn’t believe I could take another step. He help me each step of the way by instructing me how to walk downhill when it was all loose rocks. He tried to teach me the best way to use my walking sticks. It was such a comfort to know that he was constantly behind me as I was one of the slower walkers in my group.
I cannot wait to go back again next year with Rui who I know will ensure that this Camino journey will exceed my first one.

Absolutely no need was unmet. Transportation, food, water and excellent accommodations were provided every day, and most days were long and difficult. At day’s end were always words of encouragement for the next stage. Every morning we were met with smiles and the ever present joy of Rui and Yolanda. I had been wanting to walk the Camino for the past several years. I am grateful that my wish came to fruition last year. Well worth the wait. Thanks Rui, Yoli. You 2 are just getting started.

My husband and I had the pleasure of experiencing the 17 day Camino Frances trip with Rui and Yolanda and our small group from Jacksonville, Florida in September 2016. It was such a wonderful experience that went way beyond our expectations. From the time they greeted us at the airport upon arrival until they saw us off at the end of our journey, Rui and Yolanda went above and beyond in their extraordinary attention to detail to make our Camino an unforgettable highlight in our lives. Their knowledge, experience, love and respect of the Camino de Santiago shows through every day and they took care to provide us with all we needed to truly make it “our Camino”.

Everything was done beautifully to accommodate our group. I could not have asked for 2 better people to lead the Camino. Yoli and Rui were exceptional. The walk was a challenge, as should be expected, but there was always a warm welcome at the end of the day.

Our May/June 2017 Camino with Rui and Yoli was our first camino experience. It was truly a remarkable one. From the moment they met our group the journey became one of the most memorable and special ones of our lives. Since our group was always encouraged by Rui and Yoli to make the experience our own, individually, we opened our minds, our souls, and our spirits to endless possibilities. We also experienced the development of friendships among our Camino group. Our journey was extremely well organized, with attention to such details as the food and lodging. We were able to experience the unique cuisine of each area of our journey, as well as the hospitality and lodging in some of the most unique and special places we’ve ever witnessed. They felt that since each “pilgrim” on their Camino journey was giving their best, they had an obligation to do their best for each and every pilgrim making the journey.
Well done, Rui and Yoli!
