“It was a fantastic experience and something that my son and me had wanted to do for a long time. I would like to thank the person or team who put together our schedule and itinerary. It gave us every chance to complete the walk within 14 days, which all the time we had. Everything about the two weeks was perfect - including the weather for much of the time! All our accommodation was excellent, transfers were all carried out on time and with no fuss, and we had no problems or issues at all, meaning we could just concentrate on the walking. We'd both like to say a big thanks to Contours for organising such a memorable experience. We have nothing but praise for the way the holiday was arranged on our behalf. And were happy to tell the many fellow walkers we met on route or in the evenings just how well organised and how good Contours were. We are already looking ahead. Probably the West Highland Way next!”

Mr Duckworth, UK

“An excellent walk and one of the pleasures is to meet fellow walkers and share experiences. The Pennine Way is a challenging walk and we feel pleased to have completed it.”

Mrs Deadman, UK

“Firstly thank you for organising a great trip. What an amazing experience. Everything worked very smoothly and with people coming and going it was definitely a challenge, which went really well. We all had the most wonderful time.”

Mrs Twinn, UK

“Long walk but I knew this. Great experience although more mud than I expected. Very friendly hosts, pubs and fellow walkers. Very happy with the role Contours played in the Pennine Way walk. High standard of accommodation but variable. Good logistics.”

Mr Hoskin, Australia

“Totally exhilarating and fulfilling walk through some stunning countryside. All pre travel information was detailed as was the guidebook and the accommodation details which assisted with daily planning. Baggage and taxi transfers all went smoothly and without any issues. We have used Contours on previous occasions and have no hesitation on using or recommending Contours.”

Mrs Davies, UK

“I’m happy to be home but what an amazing Pennine Way adventure I have had. It’s hard to express in words just how magical this trip was. For me the Pennine Way is easily the best long-distance path in the UK. But it’s not a walk for the faint hearted and it is by no means a stroll in the park. Dealing with the tough terrain (loads of bugs), the remoteness and the solitude was just the emotional and physical challenge that I needed. I guess I was lucky to only have four days when I walked in the rain. And if anything my injury (I broke my wrist on day 12) made the holiday even more satisfying. I will carry the memories of this holiday for a long, long time. A well-planned holiday with comprehensive itinerary supplied. I can’t think of a better way to spend three weeks. I loved the challenge and the rewards are enormous. The satisfaction I felt when completing and achieving the walk was amazing.”

Mr Duthoit, UK

“Very well organized, big thank you”

Ms Rudnicki, Switzerland

“The Pennine Way was fabulous and highly recommend it to anyone as long as they have a degree of fitness.”

Mr Roome, UK

“Special mention to Benjamin who re-planned my itinerary when I voiced concern about the 27-mile 2nd day walk. He couldn't have been more helpful. Thank you.”

Mr Fisher, UK
