Diego made the trip unforgettable! We spent 14 days hiking in the Pyrenees learning about the area’s history, culture, geologic formations, and great good, all while seeing a beautiful part of the world!

The trip was so organized and our guide Diego made the trip especially enjoyable with his good humor and his knowledge of the plants, geology and history of the Pyrenees.

Recently, I had the opportunity to go on some hiking routes with incredible guides like Alberto and Diego through the Ordesa National Park, the Monte Perdido, the Cola de Caballo and the Canarellos belt. From the first moment it was clear to me that I was in the presence of the best guides there could be in that area and if I may in Spain, guides who loved nature and who knew every corner of the park, a very important aspect in a guide is who like to teach and made me born within me an even greater love than I had for nature.

Traveling with Diego was amazing. We gained access to fascinating places people can’t normally access; learned about the geology, plant and animal life, culture, and general history of Spain; all while hiking in fantastic areas. He organized great accommodations and food experiences to complete our cultural immersion. He was open to all our questions (environmental, cultural, political) and provided knowledgeable thoughtful responses – how did he know so many plants and animals and their latin names!! Fabulous trip and amazing guide.

The recent trip I did with Diego through the Pyrenees, was one of my favorites. Lots of hiking but with stops at local points of interest to immerse you in the culture, the history. and the food. The in depth look at the reintroduction of the bearded vultures was a theme throughout and a highlight of what we explored. Don’t miss an opportunity to spend time with Diego, his knowledge, experience and good humor will make you trip!

Diego Martin Cortes coordinated two amazing hiking trips for me and my friends, Portugal in 2022 and Spain in 2024. He listened to our needs and coordinated just the right venues, lodging, meals and local transportation to fit our group.

In Spain he also acted as the guide for our trip, hiking with us, providing tours in local towns, historical venues, and national parks. We were so fortunate to benefit from his knowledge of history, architecture, culture, flora and fauna, not to mention his terrific sense of humor and patience with our large group. Traveling in Spain with Diego and my friends in June of 2024 was the best trip of my life!

Our hiking trip through the Pyrenees was an amazing adventure! Diego’s knowledge and expertise of the area made it so much more than just a hiking trip.
