Some testimonials from previous breaks
"I enjoyed great company as we walked and realising that I'm capable of more than I know. I enjoyed the feeling of accomplishment when I realised I'd walked at least 8 miles by the end of the first day.
The guides were wonderful company and I was able to talk to them about anything. They were very supportive and descriptive and very helpful in general. I learned a lot from them, ranging from History to food, and they helped challenge me and relax when needed."
