WHY JOIN OUR TRIPS?
In these busy times, when even vacations can seem rushed, our tours are designed to allow travelers time to explore, relax and to physically enjoy their time in an area. By organizing and scheduling the program for you, we take the burden of planning and fretting off you, yet make ample time to experience the peace and calm which being outdoors brings.
Our personal attention to detail ensures that you get to relax, slow your pace of life, and feel yourself renewed in body and spirit. We will take you off the path to places you'd be unlikely to discover on your own. Through our guiding and interpretation you will gain a greater appreciation of the area; why it is the way it is, how the locality shapes the way of its occupants, how history has affected the region.
We invite you to participate in these vacations, to relish the afterglow of moderate exercise and stimulating company, and experience some of the world's most fascinating and attractive regions.

OUR WALKS (HIKES)
Most reasonably fit people should be able to enjoy our tours. Some of our walks are better described to American visitors as hikes, though the `term 'rambles' better characterizes our philosophy. You will meet few others on our chosen routes, and will get to many places well off the beaten path.
Our pace is leisurely, allowing time to take in the local fauna and flora, antiquities and culture. Travel between hotel and the trailhead is by minivan or small coach.
The maximum group size is normally 16. Groups typically consist of a mix of couples and singles, traveling on their own or with friends. Most of our clientele are American, with an increasing number of Irish and British.
Over 50% of participants come through personal recommendation. Our typical age range is 35-70, though we are pleased to cater for families with teenage children who enjoy hiking.
