“We enjoyed our holiday very much. It was a great experience in many ways. We saw beautiful places and met very nice people.”Ms Salasco, Italy
“Great walk. Contours has a very smooth operation and the only time we needed to phone for help we were very well, and speedily, looked after. If we decide to do another supported walking holiday then we will certainly check Contours out first.”Mrs Maddison, UK
“This was a wonderful walk enjoyed by all in our party. We were lucky with the weather with just a couple of showers on the first two days and then dry weather but not too hot (unlike this week!). There are some very steep climbs and a couple of long days but manageable. The arrangements for transfers worked well and directions to accommodations straightforward. Good and varied accommodation, great views, lovely area.”Mr Mowforth, UK
