Walking vacation inspiration
From iconic city streets to wild hiking trails
Whether you want to ramble through the English countryside, wander the rice fields of Bali, or hike through America’s epic national parks, our walking vacations are all about stretching your legs, breathing in fresh air, and taking in the world’s most impressive sights.
Walk the world’s greatest cities
Some cities are made for walking, and our guided walking tours will take you strolling along the most famous streets like the Champs-Élysées in Paris, the Las Vegas Strip and Edinburgh's Royal Mile. We’ll also show you the hidden gems, like the secret corners of Rome, the enchanting lanes of Prague and the back alleys of Melbourne that only the locals know.
Stretch your legs in nature
Taking a walk in nature is good for the soul, and there’s nothing better than getting up close with all the beautiful corners of our planet. Our walking vacations will have you exploring the canyons and hot springs of Yellowstone on foot, take a guided walk through an Irish farm and its world-famous Japanese Gardens, or wander along the Lakeshore Trail of Banff National Park to come face to face with the magic of Lake Louise, the ‘Jewel of the Rockies’.
Guided hiking vacations
If you’re up for something a little more challenging, our guided hikes will take you exploring through some of the world’s most spectacular landscapes. Embark on the Lions Head Sunset Hike with a local guide for incredible views of Cape Town and Table Mountain, take a hike through unspoiled rainforest to see the ‘Fjord of Last Hope’ in Chilean Patagonia, or hike to stunning overlooks in Canyonlands National Park.

Where should you go on a walking vacation in Europe?
Europe’s gorgeous cities are perfect for a walking vacation and you can hit the streets from the Latin Quarter of Paris to the historic sights of Berlin. Wander across the famous bridges of Prague, ramble through the ancient squares of Rome, and marvel at the scenery as you stroll through Salzburg.
