We always knew the secret...JoAnn knows the way!

"The Camino trip was an amazing experience! The trail segments chosen by Jo Ann and the guides were scenic and varied; the hike through the Pico de Europa, in particular, was spectacular. We really enjoyed the balance between the walks through mostly rural areas, coupled with our stays in beautiful and culturally interesting cities. Our guides, Xabi and Jaime, were gracious and informative. The food emphasized regional delicacies and was always delicious. We look forward to another trip with Walking Connection!" ~ Doug Stuart and Catherine Gorman Stuart

Back from Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Uganda! Such peaceful, gentle giants! A family of 11 allowed us the privilege of their company for an hour or so! It's been a twice-in-a-lifetime experience for us. Shall we make it a "three" in 2025?
