Our holiday was fantastic, really well planned with excellent communication and the app worked a treat for our day to day activities. If you're thinking of a walking / hiking holiday and are unsure of where to go or how to plan it, this is the job for you
Walking Holidays Slovenia is great! They provided all of the information and made the arrangements for our self guided walk in Triglav National Park. We hiked to Vodnikov Dom the first day, then to the Seven Lakes Basin the second day, then back to Ribcev Laz the third day. The trails were well marked, and the GPS app recommended by Walking Holidays Slovenia was very helpful for keeping us on track. The trails were very rocky in places, which was a bit of a challenge for us, but it was so beautiful! Very much recommend this company!
We had an incredible time on the 5 day hut to hut hike in Croatia. The views were perfect, the accommodation much nicer than we imagined and we had a fantastic support guide - Ivan - who was very friendly and made the whole trip possible. We were also able to go to the beach most days after we finished our hiking and everything was very flexible. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

1) Stunningly beautiful places with perfect weather! Good balance of countryside and old city walking. 2) The Trip App was incredible!!! 5 stars! Loved the write ups on each location. The links to all restaurants, hotels, attractions, tickets! The GPS app also worked. 3) PERFECTLY located hotels and rooms with two beds and thoughtful staff! Loved being right in the old towns with amazing views. I did not mind carrying bags up or down in order to have the locations but much appreciated when we did have help with this 4) Breakfast being included with the rooms (even though there was a mix up the first morning). I don't like to have to plan breakfast spots and the buffets were incredible. 5) The kindness and promptness of the drivers, Nice transport vehicles and easy drop off and pick up points. Plus help with our bags. 6) The Walking Holidays Croatia team was helpful and easy to work with. We appreciate all they did to customize out trip.
Did the Eastern Madeira walking holiday. The hikes were lovely though some were crowded. But they were crowded cause the view was great. So can't skip loved the ocean side cliffs for a couple days and then the forests along levadas. We had a misunderstanding with the driver as he thought we should have finished sooner. So give them a reasonable estimate. He never asked and his estimate caused all the issues. But we whatsapped the company and they set it straight. Food is good in the towns. We packed lunch everyday as some of those places along the way had long lines. We went a day early and did a sightseeing day with their driver and it also helped with jet lag. Hikes are pretty moderate, so you have energy to enjoy the town in the evenings. The Island is beautiful ❤️
I was admittedly nervous about booking this trip and trusting that all of the pieces would fall into place. We had transportation to and from airports, luggage transportation, multiple hotels and mountain huts booked…a lot of moving pieces. I’m delighted to report that it was all seamless and that our trip to Slovenia was the trip of a lifetime! The hotels chosen were gorgeous and comfortable. Transportation was perfect. Everything was exactly as it should be: complete perfection! And Slovenia: this country now holds our heart!
having any guarantees about what we were getting. It was a foreign company that we couldn’t find much information about, so there was a lot of anticipation regarding what kind of information we would receive, the standard of the hotels, and whether the luggage transport would work. But everything has gone smoothly. You responded quickly when we contacted you on WhatsApp, and you were solution-oriented. The hikes were great — we made a few adjustments due to the heat on the first day. I was active on social media, and many people have been impressed by the trip. I’ve shared the link to your website with around 10 friends. If you need a reference for other Norwegians, that’s no problem. I’ve posted some videos from the trip on my Instagram: @bjorghatloy. Thank you so much for the trip!
My husband and I recently completed a Walking Holiday of the Amalfi Coast for 11 days, which was absolutely fantastic and the highlight of our trip to Italy. The travel agents who organised the tour Anja and Samo were very helpful, adjusting and customising it to suit our requests. The accomodation booked for us was very comfortable and the transfer of our luggage from hotel to hotel took place with no issues. Our hiking guides including Alessandra, Marcella and Diego were all exceptional. They were friendly, supportive and extremely knowledgable about the towns and regions we walked in. They ensured we had a fantastic experience creating memories, while enjoying the walking, the amazing views, the tasty food and the beautiful Italian culture. I highly recommend this walking tour and would encourage anyone who was planning a similar holiday to book through this company. It was a great way to see and experience the Amalfi Coast.
We had an incredible trek! The itinerary was exactly what we wanted, communication was excellent with the company. They were so helpful throughout the planning process and when we were in country. Slovenia exceeded our expectations. We can't recommend them enough!
Tour was very well organised with lots of information to help guide us through the holiday. All the accommodation was great. Particularly liked the self catering Glamping Mountain Fairytale and the Berghi Hotel. Food at the Hotel Starkl restaurant was great as well. The route took us through a beautiful part of the country on quiet roads and cycle paths. The cycle paths are much better than in the UK and I would also like to say that Slovenian car drivers are much more patient and tolerant than many drivers in the UK. Beautiful country. Really enjoyed it.

Walking in the Bernese Oberland felt like a dream. The trails were incredibly scenic, with views of snow-capped peaks, turquoise lakes, and picturesque Swiss villages. The accommodations were comfortable and ideally located, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. Lan was wonderful in helping me plan my days and ensuring I had everything I needed. Switzerland’s natural beauty is unmatched, and this trip was the perfect way to experience it on foot.

My walking holiday in Chamonix and the French Alps was unforgettable. Each day brought stunning views of towering peaks, alpine meadows, and glacial streams. The routes were well-marked and varied in difficulty, making it easy to tailor the days to my pace. The accommodations were charming and perfectly situated for breathtaking morning views. Lan was so helpful in suggesting how to make the most of my time in the region, and their support made the whole trip seamless. If you love mountains and fresh air, this trip is a must!
Walking the GR10 was an incredible way to experience the Pyrenees. Each day brought something different—lush valleys, high mountain passes, and charming villages. The huts provided a warm bed, great meals, and a chance to meet fellow hikers. The clear itinerary and support from Hut to Hut Hiking Europe made it easy to focus on enjoying the trail. I’d recommend this hike to anyone looking for a multi-day trek with lots of variety.

Exploring Madeira on foot was an incredible adventure. The trails offered a variety of experiences, from dramatic cliffside paths to lush levadas (irrigation channels) winding through the forests. The island’s unique landscapes were unlike anything I’ve seen before. Samo was fantastic, providing clear guidance and tips on which trails to prioritize based on my interests. The accommodations were excellent, and the local cuisine was a delightful bonus. This walking holiday introduced me to the wonders of Madeira, and I’ll definitely be back!
My walking holiday in Brittany was a peaceful escape. The coastal paths offered stunning views of dramatic cliffs, sandy beaches, and charming fishing villages. The inland trails led through lush forests and past ancient landmarks like standing stones and medieval chapels. Samo and Anja made planning so easy with their detailed itineraries and helpful advice. The accommodations were cozy and full of local character, and I loved being able to sample the region’s incredible seafood. Brittany’s beauty is truly timeless!

I did the Fisherman Trail in Portugal mid April and I had a fantastic time. The trip was well organized and the luggage transfer seamless. The maps were clear and easy to navigate, and always got me to my destination safe and sound. And the accommodations felt like a complete splurge, especially the B&B. And of course the views along the trail were amazing. Definitely would recommend booking with them!
Overall the trip was well organized. There was a bit of confusion at the beginning with respect to hotel reservations and luggage transfer but Anja was very helpful in getting details sorted and responding promptly to any questions and concerns. We were travelling in the off season and in some small towns there were no or limited restaurants and food options. Anja helped us figure out GPS links and maps for our hikes. We very much appreciated all her efforts. The hikes were beautiful and we would book with Anja again.
We chose Walking Tours in Brittany because they offered a self-guided tour. They were extremely helpful before we left and during the trip when a few small issues arose. They responded immediately and solved each issue quickly. Their written guide was very informative and explained how to prepare for this adventure and an adventure it was. We saw the most extraordinary land and seascapes. The hike was challenging at times but well worth the effort.
