“Everything worked like clockwork. We hadn't done one in about 20 years (with you) and it was just the same. Turns out the weather was rather warm for this time of year but not much you can control about the weather. Very much enjoyed the walk. Fun, fun fun. Loved the towns, paths and the views where at every step. We did a holiday 20 years ago with you and never forgot, so we booked this trip.”Mr Blackley, USA
“The route directions were excellent and the map was well detailed. The problems we had initially were dealt with promptly and we were given reassurance that holiday would go to plan. It was a different holiday to anything else we’ve experienced. We like being active every day. Luggage was always waiting for us on arrival at the accommodation.”Mrs Braid, UK
