Ultreia y Suseia

Rui, Yoli y Carlos: ¡nuestros líderes/guías de grupo fueron fabulosos! La caminata fue diseñada para seguir 100 millas del camino de Santiago a Santiago y Ultreia y Suseia presentó un equilibrio de la historia y la relevancia espiritual del camino de una manera interesante y desafiante. El Camino no son unas 'vacaciones'. Fuimos bendecidos con un viaje de 'peregrinos, no turistas'.

¡Qué viaje tan increíble en el Camino con esta gente tan hermosa! No me imagino hacerlo de otra manera. ¡Ellos se encargan de los pequeños detalles para que tu grupo pueda concentrarse en todo lo relacionado con el Camino!

Fue uno de los mejores viajes que he experimentado. Grupo pequeño creado para relaciones cercanas con todos los participantes. El Padre Dennis hizo un excelente trabajo al hacerlo muy ecuménico. Desearía que el ritmo se hubiera centrado más en oler las rosas que en llegar a la meta, pero es posible que haya tenido más que ver conmigo que con la dinámica del grupo.

Experiencia asombrosa. Tanto emocional como espiritualmente. Esta mañana cuando comparto en una reunión semanal para. Me preguntaron con quién lo hice y les comparto el sitio web de Ultreia y Suseia y le dije que estuviera atenta del 11 al 18 de diciembre que la empresa estará en diferentes parroquias. Nuestra Señora Estrella del Mar siendo su parroquia es una de ellas.

Rui and Yoli have a very personal and wonderful Camino Pilgrim company. They make you feel like you are the most important pilgrim on the walk and foster a spirit of friendship, comradery and trust.

My husband and I just returned from the Camino de la Reconquista with Rui and Yoli. We are still in awe of the beautiful country and architecture we saw and experienced, and the warmth, generosity and impeccable attention to detail this trip entailed. We both feel this was the trip of a lifetime! Walking along northern Spain's beaches and cliffs, mountains and forests, charming villages and cities - so much amazing scenery to be immersed in. Four and five star hotels and breakfasts and dinners (with local wines and dishes) - every day delighted and throughly spoiled us! The small group experience, with Rui and Yoli personally shepherding us, was very special and we made many lovely new friends. Most of this group was in their 60's and 70's and the walking routes and support van made it very doable for all. There were many extra, surprise touches that Rui and Yoli built into the trip that were very special and memorable. We cannot thank Rui and Yoli enough for creating such a wonderful experience - far beyond anything we had expected!

Rui and Yolanda are top in their field. From the first greeting to our final goodbye, the service, their knowledge and their generous spirit was ever present.

I would highly recommend them as you Camino guides.

This was a beautiful journey. Accommodations were superb (lodgings and food and transportation). Our guides, Rui and Yoli, were attentive, caring, knowledgeable and fun. This was way beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!

Everything was amazing. The owners treated us as family and will be my family forever. Very organized, showed us beautiful places, paths. Great food and best wine. Unforgettable moments. I have no words. It's very highly recommended. Hope I can go back again.

Buy a good pair of trekking shoe, pack your bag and go. Rui and Yoli cover everything else. Once you decide to walk a Camino de Santiago - pick which path then consider this firm to take care of everything else. Do when you make the decision to use Ultreia y Susiea then there is very little else to think about - I heard more than once from our fellow Pilgrims - so glad I did not overthink the trip. Simply spectacular.

My camino experience with Rui and Yoli could not have been more perfect. From the moment I arrived, I felt their warmth and care. Each day they prepared our group for the day’s journey, from instructions on the day’s walk to contemplating verses. Laughter, smiles and meaningful conversations helped us along the way. Rui and Yoli were instrumental in making my camino even better than I expected. To experience el camino with Ulteira y Suseia is to experience pure joy each and every day!

Rui and Yoli treated us all like royalty. We had an amazing trip and they took such good care of us. The hotels were amazing; the food was incredible; the hospitality was incredible; we now have two friends in Rui and Yoli. We have committed to doing this trip again with them next year.

The Camino was the most amazing travel experience of my life
Rui and Yoli have carefully curated every detail of the trip to provide the most memorable experiences
And, having Father Blessing as a spiritual guide was an added bonus!

What an amazing journey to experience Ultreia y Suseia's Easter Camino. It was a walking pilgrimage but an experience of a lifetime. Rui and Yoli are amazing coordinators of this journey. They provide the paths where they share their wealth of knowledge of history along the way. All the behind-the-scenes hard work is evident in the way each day was presented to us. Deep feelings of peace, serenity and calm engulf you as you take in the scenery as you walk the paths. The beauty is indescribable; pictures do not do it justice. On Camino you are not the 'tourist', you become the 'journey'. It was for me the experience of a lifetime. But what an experience.so amazing I know I WILL do it again! Thank you, Rui and Yoli. I WILL see you again my dear friends! AB

My Camino (Apr 15-30,2022) convinced me that I'm NOT too old or too out-of-shape to walk another, next year, and I will! Our small group and our hosts/guides Rui and Yoli just could not be a better fit. The accommodations, the food, the wine, and our camaraderie may have overshadowed the spiritual side of my Camino, but everyone's intentions for making this journey are different. Perhaps mine was God's way of "locking me in" to make additional Caminos wherein we will focus on other aspects of my soul. Time will tell. Meanwhile I'll focus on shedding the extra pounds I'm carrying before the next Camino!

Outstanding experience! I would recommend Rui and Yoli's tours to anyone considering walking the Camino de Santiago. You will not be disappointed.

All I can say is “Wow”! What an amazing experience. At 75, I did have some self doubts, especially on the first day climbing up out of San Sebastián but by the last day, I felt comfortable, confident and had the energy of a frisky puppy dog!
The views of the ocean and mountains were spectacular and the 10 of us will be friends forever.
But, what made the trip was our hosts Rui & Yoli who were prepared for everything! Spectacular rooms, incredible meals from breakfast to dinners and wonderful wines to boot! The two of them were our guides and were always flexible, caring and creative!
I will never forget this experience with my loving wife of 50 years on the “El Camino” to Santiago, Compostela! Following “The Way” of St. James is truly a personal pilgrimage and not just a “hike in the woods! ” Also, many, many thanks to Father Blessing for his dedication and friendship during the experience! We will be adding some wonderful photos shortly!

This trip was incredible. I attribute this to the wonderful itinerary that Rui and Yoli presented every day. I have traveled the world over and I would include this trip as one of the best. Better yet, it was the best. There was no stone left unturned when it came to the hotels, the meals, and the itinerary. What I found wonderful was the one on one that they provided each of us. Father Howard Blessing was our spiritual guide. Rui, Yoli and Father Blessing provided a warm and calming presence throughout the entire trip. I will do another Camino, but only with Rui, Yoli and hopefully Father Blessing. In a word this trip was fabulous.

This Pilgrimage with Rui and Yoli was first class.
They were responsive immediately with any questions we had even before we arrived in Spain.
They are proud of their country and showed it in many engaging ways. The food and meals were sumptuous. The hotel’s beautiful and comfortable.
The route of our Camino was quite doable for a Senior citizen such as myself.
I would and will definitely recommend this Pilgrimage to all my family and friends. A once in a lifetime Spiritual experience made all the better because of Yoli and Rui! I can’t say enough about how wonderful this couple is.

A most rewarding experience.it gave me and opportunity to look inward to focus on the real purpose of my life. Time to be alone with my thoughts and sort the meanings. A deeper appreciation of what my Savior wants of me in my relationship with others. A willingness to do his will.

What an outstanding experience provided by the Ultreia Team. The attention to detail with regard to planning the walking, culture and adapting to the challenges that COVID provided. I had the experience of being taken care of from a personal as well as a group perspective. Everyone was valued. There are few organizations that offer the experience of being cared for as Ultreia.

I met the Ultreia y Suseia team in the off-season while walking our own Camino. What had been a rather happenstance journey bogged down by nightly planning, research, and cramming through history/guidebooks quickly turned around as we joined Rui's group.

Rui is a consummate professional, gentleman, and a remarkably welcoming host. He provided a local perspective on the art and historical/religious significance of every single stop on our journey, which allowed us to actually enjoy our trip and lift our heads out of our guidebooks. No question or request was too small for him to enthusiastically entertain.

He also helped us find a more relaxed and manageable pace.this proved crucial to our experience in particular, as I had planned a wedding proposal at the end of our journey. By slowing down and leaving the Camino plans to him, (and with his help organizing a few key details), I was able to focus my attention on an unforgettable proposal to my Fiancee.

If you want to walk across Spain and call it a Camino, you certainly can. If you want to honor the centuries old tradition of an authentic Pilgrimage, experiencing the art, history, food, wine and people in context.reach out to Ultreia y Suseia!

The experience of welcome and hospitality that Rui and Yoli offer, set the stage for the amazing gift of who I was meant to awaken! They bring to the Pilgrim the freedom to respond and to walk in Love and Grace respecting the unique journey of each. The truly special places to rest and sleep coupled with the amazing evening feasts only add to how they honor the pilgrims entrusted to their care. The Caminos offered by Ultreia Suseia are a wonderous opportunity for one and all to see clearly the gift of who they are. May you each say Yes to this amazing journey! Fr Blessing

Muito obrigada pelo profissionalismo, simpatia e competência e pela experiência inesquecível que nos proporcionaram!

The experience was so amazing that I went on three Caminos in a row. My fourth was canceled due to COVID-19 but I look forward to returning sometime next year.

Ideal para quem gosta de caminhar, usufruir da natureza e conhecer o melhor da historia e cultura dos sitios por onde vai passando. Excelente acompanhamento por parte da organização, não deixando faltar nada, tentando sempre proporcionar memoráveis momentos. Sem dúvida, uma experiência a aconselhar.
WALK WITH LOVE AND ENJOY

Ultreia y Suseia provided me an amazing Camino de Santiago experience. They were supportive, caring, and extremely helpful throughout the entire journey. I highly recommend their services!

I cannot say enough good things about Rui and Yoli and their amazing tour guiding business for the Camino. The personalized service was impeccable. The safety of the pilgrims under their care was paramount, as well as the comfort of the accommodations and the culinary delight of the meal at the end of a rewarding day on the Camino. They were always looking for ways to improve the experiences of those traveling with them. Kudos

I had the most wonderful experience walking the Camino with Ultreia y Suseia! Rui and Yoli are the best guides, I couldn’t of done it without them! ️ Not only were they extremely helpful, but they also went out of their way to ensure a pleasant experience on the camino. I will remember it for the rest of my life! Not only were they great guides but I also gained friends for life ️ I couldn’t recommend them enough. Buen camino!

I've used Ultreia y Suseia for my University's education abroad trip. All my students were very happy and loved Rui and Yolanda. They included so many little touches that added meaning.

The most incredible experience! Rui and Yoli put The “H” in hospitality! Every detail met with perfection.

These big hearted people are the best guides/family to experience your journey in my humble opinion. Walk with love ️ says it all!
