Gentle walking and discovery tour destinations

Our Active Tours - Discovery Walks are ideal for walking and social groups or clubs who enjoy making the most of their time, preferring a little more physical activity and exercise than that offered on traditional coach tours. Our objective is to combine a pleasant three hour walk (5-7 miles depending on terrain and gradient) with an excursion tour to some of the most inspiring and interesting destinations here in the UK and across the channel. 

Whilst the example destinations below outline our overnight trips we also can offer an extensive range of day excurions for your group.
