Those unfamiliar with Country Walkers’ trips might ask, “Why would I want to take a walking vacation?” The answer is simple: a walking adventure immerses you far deeper into a region’s surroundings than you could ever experience inside a tour bus, behind the wheel of a car—even on a bike.
A few more reasons why a Country Walkers adventure simply can't be beat—
WALKING IS THE IDEAL PACE
Walking tours invite you to relax and slow down, and discover the authenticity of a locale. A majestic walk along the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, an in-depth tour of Matera, the UNESCO World Heritage Site in Puglia, or the sound of children’s laughter as they share village tales in Peru. Walking allows YOU to set the pace—and truly experience the world.
WALKING GETS YOU IN DEEP
Instead of watching the world move by we walk, pause, and experience a region up close. Linger as you watch whales breaching offshore in the Olympic Peninsula, enjoy freshly baked flat bread with olive oil at a family-run trattoria, and partake of some magic at an Irish pub. Walking allows you the time to enjoy those special moments.
WALKING PROVIDES THE PERFECT BALANCE
Leave the hectic pace of everyday life behind, and enjoy a vacation balancing healthy activities with fun, leisure time.
