Country Walkers

The Olympic Peninsula is unique and stunningly beautiful. Walking in rainforests surrounded by huge trees, ferns taller than people and sharing it with others happy travelers is special. It was so quiet and peaceful. I never expected to be so awed by an area. But there are other areas such as the beaches and the mountains that we also visited. Everything in one fantastic area.

I had read about "forest bathing" before this trip, but as I walked in Olympic National Park I experienced firsthand the benefits of being in the forest, especially with wonderful guides who were able to point out trees, plants, and animals that we would have missed on our own. Planning next year's trip already with Country Walkers.

From Sol Duc Falls to the Lake of Quinault, every moment was magical. Our tour guides, Heather & Eric, were knowledgable, kind fantastic people, who guided us through the Olympic Peninsula with ease. I HIGHLY reccomend to any one of any age. A memorable experience that my family will look back on fondly.

This itinerary should be on everyone's bucket list. You'll never look at trees the same way again! Highly recommended!!

Country Walkers provided an amazing and fabulous trip for me and my 12 girlfriends. The guides were outstanding. The itinerary and food were fantastic. I highly recommend this trip.

This was an amazing, in-depth experience inside the beauty of Vermont’s fall foliage and it’s unique culture and history. I can’t say enough about our fabulous guides and their vast amount of knowledge, impeccable planning and attention to detail, compassion and patience. The itinerary included the perfect balance of hiking, sightseeing, eating and down time in our wonderful accommodations. Vermont speaks for itself, but I can’t think of any better way to have seen it! Thank you Country Walkers.

Each of the hikes on our trip were different which made the experience that much better. Our guides couldn't have been better-great personalities and knowledgeable about Vermont. I must add that each of the dinners provided by the topur were exceptional.

The scenery on this walking adventure was stellar and at times ethereal. We had great weather most of the time, but not good enough to do the narrows. Added adventures such as cowboy poetry, hunting for fossils in the tropic shale and searching for dinosaur footprints were a plus. We saw mule deer and desert bighorn sheep. Knowledgeable guides and excellent companions added to the enjoyment.

For the amount of travel I have done around the world, I had done very little here in the U.S. The Utah; Bryce & Zion Canyons tour far exceeded my expectations, in so many ways! The scenery was drastically different than anything I have every seen, and it was breathtaking- I was blown away by its magnificence. Our guide knew exactly how the canyons were formed over the last millions of years and explained it in simple terms. She was knowledgeable about all aspects of the parks, and she knew the most spectacular trails to hike. I loved where we stayed, all the yummy food we ate, and the company. It was an easy destination to get to that was truly out of this world!

The scenery was gorgeous, the weather fantastic, the guides were great - everything was to like about the trip.

After taking this trip and hiking with experts who know the secret spots, the history, the nuances of Bryce and Mt Zion, my husband and I cannot imagine having tried to do that trip independently because it would have been much more basic: hike, eat, sleep. With Country Walkers making the area come totally alive and all the logistics handled we got to have a true vacation free of logistics and I can't believe how much more enjoyable it was, if not critical to experiencing that region!

Great views fabulous hikes super knowledgeable guides and great people to hike with

Bryce & Zion National Parks both release an energy that will reach your core and fuel your soul in ways you will only discover after your visit. You will be awed by the hoodoo formations in Bryce and the quiet grandeur of Zion. Their silent “authority” is a transformative experience and you will want to return to these magical places. Terrific accommodations, great food, best guides, geological wonders, unparalleled night skies, and stimulating hikes all enjoyed in perfect company.

This was such a perfect tour for my first safari and first trip to Africa. Cape Town is not to be missed. It has so much history and culture and the views of Table Mountain and the other surrounding mountains are stunning. This trip also included a visit to the winelands (not to be missed!) and a stay on the coast in one of the whale-viewing capitals of the world. The tour was topped off with four nights in Kruger - two of which were at a walking-only camp. What a magical experience to track lions and view rhinos on foot! The guides, food and wine were all fabulous throughout. Overall it was a very well rounded itinerary and first taste of Africa.

Beautiful country, amazing guides, wonderful fellow travelers, terrific accommodations. The adventure of a lifetime!
