Every single hike on this excursion was fabulous, but my personal favourite was the hike from Platja Canyelles to Cadaques - just the two of us for miles and miles, going from one gorgeous Mediterranean beach to the next, up and down the coastal cliffs...Superb - it absolutely exceeded my expectations on every level.

A great way to experience in some detail the varied scenery and villages of the area. We particularly enjoyed the challenge of getting up to the heights of the wonderful Monastery of St Pere and the ruined castle we appreciated the fact that Steve and Maria were always nearby to deal with any issues...Terrific!

Arriving in an interesting new place at the end of a lovely walk each day. The
anticipation of arriving somewhere on foot and the excitement of exploring
somewhere new. The birds (especially the flamingoes) on the wetlands and the
flowers on the hillsides were memorable too.

The most memorable part was the sense of being an explorer especially when coming upon the spectacular (and unexpected) bird refuge!...The vacation was great for clearing the mind and refreshing the spirit while enhancing the ability to focus.

The most memorable part of the vacation was dragging my puffing, panting, sweating, body up that mountain, sure in the belief I couldn't do it. Unsurpassable views from the top of the world, and a real sense of achievement...One of the best vacations I've ever had. I felt truly refreshed and relaxed by the end.

Thanks for a wonderful walk. The combination of ancient roman ruins, spectacular coastal scenery with a backdrop of snow capped mountains, important medieval monasteries, working farming and fishing villages and an important ornithological site made this a unique walk for us.

Excellent. Steve and Maria were personable and professional in every way. They were very understanding of limitations of our group, and willing to adjust accordingly.

Everything about the 5 day hiking tour went well beyond anything I could possibly have imagined. The hikes themselves were stunningly beautiful, lots of variation in scenery and elevation. The hotels were wonderfully charming and run by the most lovely people, the food was excellent.

The hikes were perfect: beautiful, with just the right amount of challenge; historically fascinating; and easily traversed, as Steve provided detailed directions. Likewise, the accommodations were lovely. I cannot say enough good things about this tour and would recommend it to everyone I know.

Walking in quiet and scenic countryside, great views. Temperatures in the low 20s were just right for walking. Everything was well organised - and as we did the 7 night easy walk, the day off in Cadaques was just right. The food at all the places we stayed was excellent.

Ticked all the boxes...from warmth of first meeting Steve and Maria to the careful route plans & photos they supplied. We always felt looked-after without being part of an organised group. The perfect pitch!

The six hour coastal walk from Rose's to Cadaqués was fantastic - beautiful views, great sunshine and although tiring on the feet it wasn't too exhausting. Seeing the views of Cadaqués and walking into the quiet fishing town was very rewarding.
