Camino
of Santiago for schoolchildren
Why do the Camino as an educational activity?
At Viando we know that the Camino de Santiago is one of the most enriching experiences a person can enjoy. For this reason, we have designed a series of programmes and activities aimed at secondary school groups.
For students, this type of activity offers coexistence and companionship, self-improvement and confidence, an example of non-sedentary life and the opportunity to learn by discovery.The European cultural itinerary is the most diverse and complete European cultural itinerary on the ground.
For the centres, it means being able to offer a destination of high cultural value and an activity that contributes to improving the identification of students and their families with the centre and its educational project.
We take care of all the accommodation bookings and complementary services: luggage transfer, travel insurance, credentials, lunches and dinners, support vehicle and Camino guides that will make the experience much more than just burning stages on the way to Compostela.
