Walking tours

Our walking tours offer countryside hikes as an integral ingredient, in addition to a healthy amount of cultural content on other themes. We walk to English country houses, Italian villas and trek through Tuscany. We follow in the footsteps of countless pilgrims en route to Santiago de Compostela and the Romans along Hadrian’s Wall.

These tours require a different scale of fitness and agility. An indication of the walking involved on each of these tours, with details about distances covered and terrain, is included in each tour description, and we ask that you read this carefully before making a booking. We also use a grading system, both for individual walks and also tours as a whole.

" The tour encompassed all my interests. The walks varied, the meals with the wine tastings were excellent and evenly paced, and the visits to view the art either before or after a walk were an absolute treat. " Footpaths of Umbria - Walks, art and wine between Arezzo and Assisi
" Matthew was wonderful. He was so enthusiastic and passionate about his subject, with seemingly inexhaustible patience, explaining the enigmas attaching to the Wall and getting everyone to think. Exhilarating! " Walking Hadrian’s Wall - Roman civilisation at the edge of an Empire
" I thoroughly enjoyed my holiday. For me, it offered everything I anticipated in the walking and art but, also, my fellow travellers were good company. I will certainly maintain contact with one or two of them who seemed to be kindred spirits. " Footpaths of Umbria - Walks, art and wine between Arezzo and Assisi
" I loved everything. Given the extent of the Wall, the chosen areas where perfect for me. " Walking Hadrian’s Wall - Roman civilisation at the edge of an Empire
" Martin Randall Travel tours are consistently well managed explorations of interesting places and fascinating topics. " Walking to Derbyshire Houses - Magnificent countryside and great country houses
