Camino de Santiago: Portuguese Way

April 26 – May 6, 2027

Camino Português: The Powerful Aging Pilgrimage

10 days, 9 nights on Camino including a 3-hour Longevity Summit with Dr. Jordan Emont, noted Women’s Health & Longevity Expert.

Join a small group of adventurous women for a transformative journey along the stunning Portuguese Coastal Camino.
We’ll begin in Porto with a private Port wine tasting and welcome dinner, followed by a Powerful Aging Summit exploring the science and strategies of thriving through midlife and beyond. From there, we’ll travel to Baiona, Spain, and embark on a six-day, 78-mile pilgrimage along Galicia’s breathtaking coastline.

Together, we’ll walk through charming villages, coastal landscapes, and historic towns before arriving in Santiago de Compostela, where we’ll celebrate our accomplishment and reflect on the power of challenge, connection, and reinvention.
