“We have enjoyed all of our holidays with Contours. My wife and I find these self-guided walking holidays our favorite vacation. The route information, accommodation booking and luggage transfer services by Contours makes it so much easier and more enjoyable. We would recommend this holiday. If anything, we feel that the information and photos of the holiday understate the beauty and variety of the locations through which one travels. The varied scenery, history and cultural aspects were far better than we expected (and we had been in Yorkshire and Cumbria before on the Coast to Coast walk). We have booked several holidays with Contours in the past and intend to continue to do so in the future.”Mr Brancheau, USA
“It went without a hitch. Everything went smoothly and we had good weather. Difficult to find any serious faults.”Mr Welch, UK
“One of the best holidays I have ever had. An excellent holiday. Thanks for your great organisation. Special thanks also to the luggage transporter and the taxis - they were marvellous. The walks were so varied and the content of the days so surprising that it was impossible to pick one day out as best. The features that I loved were the birds overhead, the rivers, the buttercup meadows, the awesome scenery and the great welcomes that we received at the end of long day.”Kath Harrison-Jennings, UK
