Compostela Certificate Tours
Become officially recognised for completing your Camino pilgrimage
For some travellers, a big motivation for completing the Camino de Santiago is to receive a Compostela Certificate. This is a document one receives from the Pilgrims Reception Office in Santiago.
To receive the Compostela Certificate, you must make the pilgrimage for pious reasons (or at least have an attitude of search), walk (or ride on horseback) the last 100km or cycle the last 200km, and collect stamps in the Credencial del Peregrino from places you pass through. The Testimonium is the Italian equivalent for completing the Via Francigena and arriving in Rome.
The below walking and cycling tours all meet these distances and will make you eligible for the Compostela Certificate upon finishing in Santiago (or Testimonium in Rome). There are routes along the Portuguese Camino, the Camino Norte, the Camino Frances, Camino Primitivo, Camino Sanabres, Camino de Invierno, and the English Way.
