Am looking for a trip that would compliment a Camino de Santiago walk in northern Spain. Have looked at Explore Worldwide and Rick Steves. Are there any other recommendations readers can provide for tours in the Basque area of Spain? Thank you for any suggestions.

I did receive a lead on the Camino tour and looked at Martin Randall Travel (based in the UK) www.martinrandall.com
They are pricey. Has anyone traveled with them or know anything about them? Still looking for additional recommendations.

Just an update -- I did the Camino with a Canadian company called Walkers World and it was an excellent experience. I have a list of suggestions for anyone thinking of doing this walk. Just send me a PM and I'll be glad to send it to you.                                                                                                                                                                                     And just so you know...... guess who’s doing a multi-part series on “Spiritual Places of the World”?   Oprah!      Her team followed a “pilgrim”  on the Camino in late August/early September.    This program will very likely do for the Camino what “Eat, Pray, Love” did for Bali --  bring oppressive crowds and many,many problems.    So if you are interested in this destination you might want to think about going before this special airs!
