“Excellent accommodation and baggage transfer. Great scenery”Mr Langford, UK
“An amazing experience! Gruelling yet very rewarding. Made so much better by the high standard of accommodation that Contours had booked for us as well as all the other arrangements like taxis and luggage transfers. My favourite part of the route was Day 4 (Wasdale to Rosthwaite) - stunning, dramatic scenery with Bob Graham Round runners passing by - an exhilarating day!”Mr Ramsdale, UK

“Very nice accommodations, friendly staff and good food. We plan to do coast walking in the south of England, but have not scheduled it yet.”Mr Pedersen, Norway
“An amazing adventure.”Ms Rodge, UK
“The luggage transfers were flawless and the accommodation was superb. The maps provided with the highlighted routes were great. I love that you had gone to the trouble of highlighting alternative routes for bad weather and the river crossing. This was well thought out. Booking the holiday was easy and Vikki was great at keeping me informed about the booking and going to extra trouble to accommodate us during this particularly busy/difficult time.”Mrs Salt, UK
“Well organised. Clear instructions. Have already recommended this holiday.”Mrs Davies, UK
