“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 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
