The Apostleship of the Sea Catholic Cruises and Tours is presenting a walking tour of The Camino Way. This is a challenging experience as it involves a significant physical effort as you walk through forests and along busy roads for many miles each day for a total of approximately 71 miles. Your rewards will be intangible but priceless: an opportunity to enjoy nature, meditate, search for answers, and challenge your limits. At the end of your journey relax on an excursion by coach to Finisterre and Muxia and a guided tour of Santiago de Compostela. For more information contact Brian at Catholic Cruises and tours (860) 399-1785.
