Two 2027 versions are being explored
Richard supplied two working versions of the journey. One is dated June 16–26, 2027. A second is dated July 17–28, 2027 and adds July 25 in Santiago de Compostela for the Festas do Apóstolo / Día de Santiago. These are planning-stage itineraries, so travelers should contact Richard for the version currently being offered and the final booking details.
Why itinerary-based travel content matters
A useful travel plan is more than a destination list. The stage lengths, transfer points, luggage handling, overnight sequence and time before and after the walk all affect whether a Camino itinerary fits a traveler. Richard's working plan gives prospective travelers concrete details they can use when deciding whether this style of journey is right for them.
