Our small group walking holidays

Walking can be a solitary experience for some, but for others, sharing rambling escapades is what life is all about. Our wonderful small group walking holidays take all the pressure off of organising, creating itineraries and finding your way. Instead, you get to be in the hands of an expert local guide and can spend your time going deeper and learning more about where you are and who you’re hiking with. Whether you are hiking in the desert or along the Amalfi Coast, our small group walking holidays will lead you to all the cultural and natural highlights of a walking destination, all in fantastic company.

Highlights of our small group walking holidays

What to expect from a small group walking holiday?

On our small group holidays, the logistics are sorted; you just need to follow the leader. Expect our trips to come with great guides who might not just be experts in where you are but might have also had a hand in creating or maintaining the trail to top it all. Then you get the great company of fellow walkers. These holidays are generally less expensive than tailor made trips, and more social too. Most of our small group walking holidays come with luggage transfers, so you only need to carry a day pack. You’ll get lovely locally run hotels for the nights, but you’ll get plenty of opportunities to try local restaurants and cafes in the day, rather than going full board.

Where can you go small group walking?

We run small group walking holidays practically all over the world, so wherever you want to go, walk this way. We have popular trips in Europe’s most beautiful and hiker-friendly hotspots, so head to the Alps, the Greek Islands, Albania’s mountains, or Tuscany’s rolling hills. One additional perk of small groups is that you can make it to destinations that you might be less confident visiting on a self-guided trip. So, tackle the Inca Trail in Peru with a group and know that you’ll be acclimatising at the right pace, head to Morocco’s High Atlas for the highest mountain in North Africa, go to Patagonia for dramatic glaciers, or visit Japan to get great insight into the culture from your guides as you go.
