"Traveller, there is no path, the path is made by walking."(Antonio Machado) Traveling slowly and sustainably is the art of finding awareness of the present moment where life reveals itself in all its fullness. Be it in the encounters along the way, with experiences in nature, or through surprising discoveries in unfamiliar surroundings. For this kind of sustainable travel, Langsamreisen offers selected sailing ship, cargo ship, mail ship and pilgrimage tours. Before the pandemic, many destinations in the world could be reached without airplanes by combining these modes of transport. Unfortunately, passenger carriage on cargo ships continues to be severely restricted, as shipping companies doen't seem to be interested in reinstating this way of travling. In terms of sustainability in tourism, it is our concern to make our offer ecologically and socially responsible. Compared to cruises or air travel, our CO2 emissions are already very low, which is why we are obligated to compensate 100 percent through atmosfair climate protection projects. In addition, our types of travel, such as cargo, mail and sailing ship trips, also offer all people with a fear of flying an alternative, for example, to take the time to travel far away after treatment of a burnout or as part of a sabbatical. Sustainable tourism or sustainable travel consequently includes all aspects of our inner as well as outer nature. “I would like to take a moment to say from the bottom of my heart that you did everything you could to ensure a smooth experience. The three of us experienced a very nice “Portuguese Inland Camino”. One more thing I would like to say: for such pilgrimages you need trust, and we had that right from the start with the friendly and efficient manner of Mr. Arne Gudde. He was always there for us, whether we needed English, Spanish or German. We really appreciated his help.” - N.W. “I had a fantastic time. I really enjoyed the trip on the Silver Supporter and on Pitcairn - the crew were very nice, I was able to go on the bridge and they explained a few things to me. The people on Pitcairn were also very hospitable. Compared to Tahiti and Mangareva, the island is a punk among poppers ;)"- H.N. “I would very much like to tell you that this Camino de Santiago was something special for my brother and me. The Camino was perfect in everything!!! (hotels, travel companion!!!)” - D.H. “I have now been on the coastal path for three days and would like to say a first thank you for your careful planning and helpful tips. Hotels & luggage transportation are wonderful. Thank you for supporting me with your rich experience on my first Camino.” - H.G. “First of all, thank you very much for the excellent organization of this pilgrimage. Everything worked out wonderfully. Unfortunately, we were unlucky with the weather and had a lot of rainy days, but we persevered. The route was also very nice. We really liked the choice of hotels, always in the center.” - B.B. “I don't know how I/we can thank you for the unforgettable trip. I had heard a lot and suspected that the Way of St. James was something special, but I didn't expect anything like this. Everything was perfect! The first two days with rain showers were a really good experience and a comparison of what it is like when it is warm or even hot. The nature there is like nothing else and northern Spain is really different - green and green and beautiful. The people along the way are so different and from all over the world. Everything worked really well. The accommodation was almost too luxurious for one night. Food tasted very good and the friendly atmosphere was also very nice. Everything perfect I say again.” - M.G.
