Kokopeli is a mythological wandering figure which appears in the tradition of many Indian tribes

such as the Hopi the Waihukam and the Zoni in the south and western parts of north America.

According to myth, Kokopeli influenced fertility, fertility of the earth and the transition from

winter to spring. By tradition, Kokopeli used to go from village to village playing his flute and

bringing happiness and making everything flourish wherever he went. His appearance always

enriched the lives of those who came in contact with him.

Kokopeli, as he appears in our logo is a combination of the traditional Kokopeli together with

another wanderer, Snufkin, the lovable figure from T. Jensen’s books. This combination of the two

figures represents for us the enriching element of the travel experience. The spiral of

smoke which comes out of our Kokopeli’s pipe in the logo evolves into the route he walks.

The spiral, like life itself, is dynamic.

What does Kokopeli Experience mean?

Our progress in life is not a straight line that leaves the past behind, neither is it a circle which returns to the

starting point, but rather it is a spiral movement. Each experience or event in our life creates the movement, and

like in a spiral, we distance ourselves from what was in order to return to it from a different view point, a new

outlook, so that the spiral becomes our route through life.

Kokopeli was founded out of our passion for sharing the wonders of Barcelona and the Pyrenees Mountains. Our

dynamic and knowledge team will help you see the highlights and discover the hidden jewels of this rich tapestry

called the Pyrenees and Iberian Peninsula. Whether it is cycling, kayaking, canyoning in thermal waters or

longer trips trekking & 4x4 trips on off road tracks in the mountains we let you set the pace, showing you

the sights like an old friend. Our customized trips allow you to combine history, culture, nature and adventure

in the measures you want, making the trip an unforgettable experience.

Awaken the Nomad in You with the Kokopeli team!

Greetings from Kokopeli team

Dear fellow traveler and adventure seeker,

We are now taking a short but deep breath, looking back on

the very busy summer season of 2013 that recently ended. It

is with a feeling of great satisfaction that we contemplate the

number of new clients, as well as returning customers.

Our excursions to the Pyrenees and Portugal take you off

the wide roads and onto the narrow paths and hidden

corners, to the wild and beautiful scenery.

The unique Kokopeli trails are always tailored to suit the

character of the group.

We listen, we ask, we suggest and in the end we produce the

one special trip which includes almost everything –

transportation, guides, accommodation in special and

exciting places, meals to be remembered and the most

breathtaking views.

Those of you who have already experienced our tours know

that our reputation, which we hold very dear, is for

extremely well organized, interesting tours which are never

run-of-the-mill. Each and every one of our customers is a

V.I.P. in our eyes, and the service is in accordance with this

attitude.

We look forward to seeing you on one of our forthcoming

tours or adventures.

Guy Reifenberg and the team of

Certificate of Excellence 2013 Winner

Kokopeli Experience

From Our Fellow Travelers

“Kokopeli Experience

Rocks!”

Went on the tour with 30

people and turned up to be

the best tour I have ever

organized. The best was the

guide -he was so

knowledgeable and clear that

everyone was astonished and

asking me how did I get this

guide.

Alfiya, the organizer helped

control everything to

perfection and I mean it to

perfection. They had so much

patience when it comes to

balancing the times between

what people wanted and what

is scheduled and dealt with

that so professionally with an

exceptional customer service.

Thank you Kokopeli, will

definitely use your services

when back to Spain.

Joseph, Tour Organizer,

“Excellent Holiday”

I was happy to make acquaintance with

Guy during the special tour we had in

the Pyrenees Mountains.

In addition to the magnificent

landscape of the mountains all around

us with their many colors, the flowers

and plants, the waterfalls, rivers and

streams that accompanied us along the

route, I had the privilege of being

guided by Kokopeli.

I would like to remark on the

excellent, comprehensive explanations

Guy offered us – geology, botany,

chemistry, anthropology, economics,

art and history.

I was most impressed by the way he

handled the group - pleasant and

positive communication with the

members.

The good atmosphere contributed and

actually made the absolute enjoyment

of the trip possible for all the travelers

who took part and for that I thank

you.

I wish you all the best and continued

success.

Yaacov, Israel, June 2011

“Jeep tour to the Spanish

Pyrenees with Kokopeli”

Our vacation was just

excellent, all the

hotels/guesthouses were the

most comfortable and inviting.

Our guide Tai kept everyone

enthralled with his stories

and facts, and even the

younger children listened

with fascination.

The feeling at the end was

that the Kokopeli people

really enjoy what they do,

love the Pyrenees area and

nature and their goal is for

you, the visitor to be exposed

to this beauty and tranquility

(if wanted also action packed)

and to enjoy it.

We would highly recommend

booking memories through

Kokopeli.
