“One of my very best holidays ever.”Ms Cullmann, Germany
“The country was lovely, the lodgings were great and interesting and old. The food was lovely as were the people we met. This is our fourth walking holiday with you and it was very well waymarked. We didn’t get confused at all. The route notes were very useful as was the downloaded GPS.”Ms Danforth, USA
“Walking is the way to go! Next time I go I will take a longer walk.”Ms Nelson, USA

“This was our first Contours holiday and we had a fantastic time - won't be our last!”Miss Edwards, UK
“It was very helpful to have the accommodation near the track at all the places we stayed in now. We will recommend to others. Everything went well. We will definitely recommend your company and tours to others. If we come back to England, we would like another walking holiday. We were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of food on our route.”Mr Hanson, USA
“This was our first time doing a walking holiday and the experience was wonderful, thank you!”Ms Northup, USA
“We all loved walking through the forests, lanes, pastures and over the way too many hills. We explored villages and found pubs with great food and atmosphere. People were friendly and the weather was lovely. Our luggage was moved on time each day, the hotels were well situated and comfortable and the food was delicious. The maps and directions were accurate and we never got lost. I will be signing up for another walk through Contours. Hadrian’s Wall is next.”Mrs Eddy, USA
