Books and Education to Inspire Personal Journeys
This all depends on how you want to approach, your walking Journey. We have tried both, as clients and leaders. In Summary, select an Escorted Walking Tour if you feel you would like to be part of a group and leave the navigation and planning to the leaders. Select a Self-Guided Walking Tour if you would like to experience navigating your own way, in your own time along the trail. Both alternatives work well.

There are many companies who organise Walking Holidays:
Two that we have used are Sherpa Holidays and Contours Holidays. Both offer programs to suit most walkers and are reliable operators.
They are only two of hundreds of operators. For other companies, Google the name of the walk you're interested in and a range of companies will appear on your screen. Talk to your friends or other travellers to see who they recommend. You will eventually find the right company to get you going on your Walking Holiday.
