Hiking Tours, and particularly Suzana, ensured our family hiking trip to the Peaks of the Balkans was wonderfully organised and tailored to our requests. Suzana's patience and positive approach was evident in how graciously she responded to our need for luggage transfers, altered hiking routes and accommodation preferences. The guidebook provided by Hiking Tours, including accurate 'Ride with GPS', was comprehensive and extremely helpful. Despite the excellent planning by Hiking Tours hiking can throw some curve balls but Hiking Tours also works with some amazing locals in the Balkans - incredibly appreciative of Alen from Samel's Cottage in Montenegro (and his many contacts) who was so kind helping unwell or injured members of our hiking group reach destinations safely. Overall, despite the challenging terrain and distances, the Peaks of the Balkans trails are a beautiful and varied adventure, and well worth the (for some of us, considerable) effort. We look forward to hiking another amazing route with Hiking Tours.
Anja at World Discovery designed an 10 day hike along the Parenzana trail from Muggia, Italy to Porec in Croatia. She took considerable trouble to tailor the trek to our requirements and in the main it was very good. Some beautiful accommodation ranging from hotels to some wonderful small b&b's and apartments. World Discovery provide an App for the itinerary with links to Ride with GPS, a good mapping system that kept us on the right route even when signage was a bit sparse. The route took us from coast to coast through stunning scenery and we visited a number of beautiful villages and towns. The trail is an old railway track, mostly used by cyclists but perfectly ok to hike along although in some areas, stopping points are few and far between! We loved the area, the people (some of our hosts were superb), the food and the wine! The weather, in September, was kind with only one wet day. Highly recommended
We had an incredible trip in the Dolomites, thanks to Adja and her planning. The first night we stayed in one of the most spectacular Refugio’s with views that looked like we were part of a movie set. Each day was planned impeccably with just the right amount of hiking.
