Top destinations for Walking Tours

What is a Walking Tour?

Do you enjoy walking? Want to be fully immersed in the destination you are visiting? Interested in learning more about the culture, history, and architecture of the area? A Walking Tour might be a great choice for you!

A Walking Tour is a type of holiday during which you explore a new place, on foot. You’ll have time to notice the little things you might otherwise miss and get the chance to fully immerse yourself in the scents and sights of your preferred destination.

These holidays cater to everyone, regardless of fitness level, though you should be prepared to walk for 4-5 hours at a time. There are plenty of options to choose from, ranging from walks on flat ground to harder trails on more challenging terrain.

Walking Tours come in many forms. Guided group holidays are ideal when you haven’t been on many tours before or prefer to have the company of like-minded individuals. Meanwhile, private guided tours are perfect for couples, families, or groups of friends who want flexibility when it comes to the itinerary, places visited, and hours spent on the trails.

Self-guided walking tours are a great choice for experienced walkers. These are the most flexible options, allowing you to walk at your own pace and enjoy your preferred style of travel.

From strolling through bustling cities to walking scenic trails, take the time to explore a destination up close and personal on a Walking Tour!

What can you expect on a Walking Tour?

On a Walking Tour, expect to do plenty of walking. From exploring gorgeous cities to venturing into the great outdoors, each day, you’ll put on your walking shoes and cover quite a bit of distance on foot.

Depending on the areas you’re visiting, and whether hiking is involved or not, a moderate fitness level might be required. However, plenty of tours only require participants to be able to walk for 3-5 hours on flat surfaces.

If you join a guided tour, you’ll benefit from the experience of an expert walking (or hiking) guide. You’ll likely also have an archaeologist as your tour guide if you’re exploring cities or historical sites.

You’ll stay in charming accommodations, ranging from cozy hotels in the heart of the cities you’re exploring to restored manor houses or small inns located on the route you’ll take.

Why should you go on a Walking Tour?

Anyone should go on a Walking Tour. Catering to all fitness levels, these holidays offer several benefits that other forms of tourism simply can’t offer.

By walking, you’ll experience the culture and atmosphere in a way that is impossible with a car or tour bus. Getting up close and personal will enable you to understand and appreciate the area you are visiting. Whether it’s stopping to check out an architectural element, hearing stories about a building, or finding a rare flower on the trail, you’ll be fully immersed in the place you’re exploring.

As a low-impact exercise, walking is great for keeping you physically and mentally fit. Walking in nature has been proven to reduce stress and anxiety while increasing the feeling of relaxation and happiness.

Make the best out of the tour by wearing comfortable walking shoes, dressing appropriately, staying hydrated, and, if you are on a guided tour, listening to your guide at all times.
