I noticed there have not been any recent reviews, not since 2023, why is this? I will be 65 years of age when we are considering doing this tour and like to walk but I note the walks are sometimes over 11 kms. Is this tour something I will cope with? When we are walking is our luggage transported for us from hotel to hotel? I believe at the time of the year the we are considering it will be very warm, is there risk of bush fires?

Sometimes we may not run a tour for a year so we can focus on updating it and making it better. We pop the walking information on there so you can make sure this tour may or may not be the one for you. However, this tour is considered our lowest pace at 'leisurely'. When we are walking, it's never a race, nor are we trying to rush anyone. The 11kms is over a duration of 4 hours, we will always rest, take breaks, refill our water bottles and make sure everyone is comfortable. We only have the one departure both in June and July because of the warmer weather, but for some people it's when they prefer to travel. Wildfires can occur in Spain and Portugal, but June is generally before the peak summer fire season. Conditions do vary from year to year, so we recommend checking local safety updates closer to your departure.

Is there a single supplement as I would be travelling on my own, Don't have a date yet.

If you are happy to share a room with another female sharer then there is no additional supplement. However if you would like your own room there is a single supplement, this varies dependant on the date of travel but is advised in the trip details.
