Thoroughly enjoyed our initial holiday experience. The tour manager was exceptional and highly organized. The hotel was conveniently located and featured a wonderful spa. The walks were easy to handle and catered to everyone's pace. I've already reserved my next trip.
I just returned from a fantastic trip to Andalucia with the company, and once again, they provided a wonderful experience! This was my third time traveling with them, but my first as a solo traveler. The experience started perfectly: a representative met me at the airport for a smooth transfer to the hotel, where the excellent tour manager was waiting to greet us. My accommodation was lovely; I enjoyed a comfortable room with a balcony overlooking the pool. The hotel food was plentiful and varied throughout the week, although it could have been warmer—this was a minor letdown from the hotel itself, not the company. There was varied nightly entertainment in the bar. A nice bonus was the inclusion of a free hour in the spa facilities (note: this does not include treatments). Future travelers should note that a swimming hat or shower cap is needed, or be prepared to buy one cheaply from the spa. I enjoyed a lovely hour in the warm pool, relaxing my tired walking muscles. A quick tip about the hotel: while there were no kettles in the rooms, the bar staff provided hot water free of charge, which was very helpful! Just remember to bring a cup. The highlight of the trip was visiting the stunning historical site. Experiencing this masterpiece in person was breathtaking, and we had ample time for exploration, with our guide bringing its rich history to life. There were three planned walks, with an optional fourth. The first walk was the shortest but had steep climbs. The second involved a lot of flat walking along the promenade to a nearby town, followed by a climb from the beach with exceptional views at the top. The third walk started in a charming village and included a descent to the coast. It was considered the easiest but could be tough on the knees. I took the option of the fourth walk but opted to explore the mountain villages instead, enjoying lunch with fellow travelers while waiting for the climbers to return. This solo travel experience was comfortable, secure, and highly enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend their tour of the eastern coast and am already looking forward to my next adventure with them!
My first holiday with the service was very well organized from booking through to transfers to and from the hotel. The hotel was comfortable, with good showers, a balcony, and excellent buffet breakfasts and dinners. Although it was a 'solo' holiday, several couples had booked late at a significant discount, which I found a bit off-putting, but I understand the business needs. The included trip to a historical site was a highlight for many. The first walk from the hotel offered lovely views, but I would have preferred a different route back. The second walk was mostly along the promenade to a nearby town, which some had already explored during their free time. I took a bus on a free day to explore the town's castle and ruins—interesting history. The feedback on the optional third walk was positive, but knee issues prevented my participation; however, it was nice to have time to explore the charming villages. A special mention to the guide, who was exceptionally knowledgeable and took great care of us throughout.
I thoroughly enjoyed my first holiday with the service. The tour manager was fantastic and exceptionally organized. The hotel was conveniently located and featured a lovely spa. The walks were easy to handle and paced for everyone. I've already booked my next trip.
This was my third winter sun walking holiday, and it was another great experience! This time to Eastern Andalucía. The walks were excellent, complemented by two fantastic guides. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Except for one day, the weather was sunny, allowing for lightweight walking gear. The food and accommodation were great, though I wished the food had been hotter (hence the 4 stars). Plenty of options available.
I just returned from an amazing holiday to Cyprus with the company. We stayed at a wonderful hotel, where the rooms, food, and facilities were all top-notch. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable, making the trip truly special. The highlight for me was walking in the mountains—such beautiful scenery and a fantastic way to experience the real Cyprus. I highly recommend both the hotel and the service for a well-organized and memorable trip!
My first trip with the service left me unimpressed, although many repeat travelers felt it was one of the company's weaker offerings. The hotel was generally good but in need of staff training in customer service. The main issue was the poor quality of the walks, frequent changes to the itinerary, and a lack of a knowledgeable local guide. The train journeys were mainline express to local villages, and the walks often ended during siesta time, leaving little to see or do. The group was large, with many not being true solo travelers, which limited interaction.
