Northumberland Coast Path by Meike, 13 Aug 2018
Holiday Rating:

Wonderful, relaxing time in beautiful England

We walked the Northumberland Coast path in 4 days and had a great time. Mickledore organized the trip in a fabulous way. Luxury accomodations. We felt very welcome everywhere. Beautiful dramatic countryside with wonderful nature and full of castles and history. We also made a boat trip to Farne Islands and saw seals and puffins. We really enjoyed the time and still feel deeply relaxed. We really loved it and will come back: word !!!!!

Walking Holiday one week

My wife and I had a fabulous active outdoor holiday walking along Hadrian's Wall coast-to coast averaging 15 miles each day. High quality accommodation, luggage transfer, daily packed lunches and maps/guides were arranged by the tour operator at guest houses and small hotels etc. There were six in our group and we were also fundraising for a charity we are connected with.

cotswold Walk with Mickledore

Our holiday was perfect from beginning to end, and everything in between. The ordering, all the accomodations, the walk in it self, all the information.

Amazing attention to detail!

We booked to walk the Speyside Way with Mickledore Travel. They organised the accommodation, luggage transfer and packed lunches, and provided restaurant recommendations en route. What an excellent service they provide! A detailed information pack arrived in plenty time for the trip.

We enjoyed a very pleasant and scenic five day walk along the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales. The towns along the way were quaint, the people were very friendly and many of the meals were outstanding.We'd highly recommend this walk.

South Downs Way by Geordierambler, 3 Aug 2018
Holiday Rating:

South Downs Way a great Mickledore walk

I walked the entire 100 miles of the South Downs Way from Winchester to Eastbourne. Mickledore organised all the accommodation and baggage transfers and made it all very easy. The Harvey’s walking map, Trailblazer book and the personalised A5 booklet containing all holiday details were very good and made planning each day a simple task. Accommodation in inns and B&B’s was clean, comfortable and good value for money. I would recommend Mickledore ...

Great Glen Way by Old hiker, 29 Jul 2018
Holiday Rating:

A Great Walking Holiday

After a very successful Mickedore organised walking holiday on Hadrian's Wall in 2017 my wife and I booked the Great Glen Way Walk though the same company this year. The route follows the Caledonian Canal from Fort William to Fort Augustus and then through more challenging country to Inverness over. Overall the path is about 127 Kilometres long and we took 7 days to walk with one rest day at Fort Augustus. Walking is a great pleasure for us ...

After a very successful Mickedore organised walking holiday on Hadrian's Wall in 2017 my wife and I booked the Great Glen Way Walk though the same company this year. The route follows the Caledonian Canal from Fort William to Fort Augustus and then through more challenging country to Inverness over. Overall the path is about 127 Kilometres long and we took 7 days to walk with one rest day at Fort Augustus. Walking is a great pleasure for us as - we like walking - it enables a more intimate experience with the countryside than in a vehicle. Its easy to stop, rest, and enjoy the view. There was plenty of magnificent scenery along our route. Especially on the track high above Loch Ness. Away from the sweeping views the track takes you through some pretty special forests and moorlands. Signposting was very good and there is no way to get lost. It was nice having our luggage transported and that there was a comfortable room and hot shower at the end of a sweaty day (it was a Scottish heatwave), and the promise of a cool ale. It was hard work overall but worth every step.

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore did an excellent job of arranging the walk and providing easy to read and understand information. Our previous good experience with this company gave us confidence that everything would be arranged and that we were prepared for the walk. There was one hitch at Invermoriston where the transport operator got a little confused about where he was to take us but this was quickly sorted by Mickledore. We have found that if there are any problems on the trail Mickledore sort these out quickly and with a minimum of fuss. Very happy to keep dealing with this company.
