There are many ways in which you can choose to travel and walking or trekking is a fantastic way to explore our world in-depth.

The options are a plenty, from leisurely paced to challenging itineraries. Join a group or go it on your own. From mountains to shorelines and everything in between. Special interest or simply a love of the outdoors. Warm or cool climates. There really is something for everyone.

GUIDED GROUP TOURS

Joining an organised tour with a professional guide is a great way to enjoy the great outdoors with other like minded travellers. It is especially beneficial if you are tackling some of the more challenging treks, or if you enjoy the peace of mind of someone else looking after the logistics, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in your surroundings.

PRIVATE OR SELF GUIDED TOURS

Both of these options provide maximum flexibility. It allows you and perhaps a small group of family or friends to decide exactly the itinerary, style and pace you would prefer. Often, these tours are great value for money, as you select what you do and don’t want included as we assist you to customise the perfect walking tour.
