Editor’s Take

What to Look for in Hiking Tour Reviews

Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.

Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.

The reviews given for hiking tours listed on Stride are overwhelmingly positive, with an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. Out of over 4,500 reviews, hiking tours come with a 99% recommended rating! Travelers love the variety of physical level, countries visited, and variation in activity offered on hiking and walking tours listed on Stride.

The majority of the 5 star rating reviews praised hiking tours for their value, guides, activities, lodging, transportation, and meals. Guides were favored for being accommodating of varying fitness levels. Travelers enjoyed the abundance of hiking and walking routes offered that explored beautiful scenery, landmarks, and historic sites. Some of the most highly rated hiking and walking tour locations are the Amalfi Coast in Italy, the Himalayas, and the Norwegian Fjords.

Those that were less impressed with hiking tours noted weather, group size, and a misrepresentation of physical level as reasons they did not rate the tour with a high score. When booking a hiking or walking tour, it is important to research the weather of the region depending on what season you are traveling in. This will help with choosing what hiking trip to take and what to pack.

Also make sure to look into tour group size and the physical level requirements recommended for the type of hiking or walking that will take place on the tour. Reaching out to the tour guide and company in advance is recommended to make sure what you are expecting is the type of hiking and walking tour they are offering. If you do these things, you, as similar to the vast majority of past travelers, will be sure to have an amazing and enriching outdoor experience on a hiking and walking tour!
