“It was a great walk; not too strenuous and with beautiful coastal views. Contours is a fantastic company; my trip was very well organized and I had no issues with anything. I would certainly use them again. A great mix of castles, history and beautiful views. Mileage was good; allowed for exploration of various towns along the way. Would certainly use Contours for future trips.”Mrs Naughton, USA
