England’s vibrant & historic cities and the country's rich history need little introduction, but perhaps lesser known to visitors is just how broad a range of different landscapes are available to the active traveller. With its medieval towns, sleepy seaside villages, idyllic countryside and ever-changing coastline, England is a stunning destination that’s superbly suited to walking, hiking and cycling holidays.

Follow the World Heritage Listed path of Hadrian's Wall, an incredible 84-mile stone wall built by the Romans in 122 AD, through rolling pastures and rugged moorland; and visit the picturesque Cotswold village of Bilbury, described by British designer William Morris as England’s most beautiful village.

Explore the Channel Islands of Jersey, Guernsey and Sark on foot; and follow the Cornish Peninsula, discovering fishing villages, historic towns and spectacular coastal scenery you walk sections of the Cornwall Coastal Path.

Head to Cumbria, one of the UK’s most beautiful regions, to admire the mountains, fells, lakes and tarns of the Lake District, the Pennines and the Yorkshire Dales.

Traverse England on foot following Wainright's famous Coast to Coast Trail from St Bees to Robin Hood's Bay; and explore the spectacular coastlines of Dorset and Wessex, steeped in history and blessed with landscapes that have inspired writers, filmmakers and travellers alike.

With everything from gentle walks to hikes and cycling journeys, our unique itineraries are designed to get you deep into the heart of England, regardless of your fitness level.

Reducing waste

Our Waste Management Policy encourages our travellers to take their own reusable water bottles, coffee cups and reusable stuff sacks to avoid single use plastics.

Supporting local

In the English regions that we travel through tourism is the main source of income for many local people. We support them by working with local family run accommodations and suppliers so that your money actually assists the community that hosts you.

Visas

Visas are not required for citizens of Australia, Canada, USA and New Zealand for up to 90 days in a period of 180 days for all Schengen countries (see www.schengenvisainfo.com/schengen-visa-countries-list/ for countries part of the Schengen). Please ensure your passport is stamped on arrival in the Schengen area. For all other nationalities and for longer stays in countries covered by the Schengen Agreement (Australian New Zealand, Canadian and US passport holders), please contact the relevant embassy. Stays of longer than 90 days in the Schengen area require a long stay visa for the country you are spending most time in. However long stay visas are unlikely to be issued unless there is a valid reason (eg. studying in country). Unfortunately we cannot assist in obtaining visas for long stays due to individual country visa requirements.

Please contact us if you would like to obtain a quote for your trip duration. We suggest that you consult your doctor, local government inoculation centre or a travel medical specialist in order to get the most current advice regarding vaccination requirements. Money and valuables should always be stored safely when travelling. Keep your passport with you at all times and do not leave it in your main luggage. You will need it to change money and check into hotels. Where safety deposit boxes are available, we recommend that you use them. Keep jewellery and valuables to a minimum.
