Trekking Tours

Self-guided and guided trekking tours worldwide, from the Picos de Europa and Crete to Toubkal and Peru's Andes.

Trekking tours are multi-day walks through bigger, wilder country, often with nights in mountain huts, lodges or camps between long days on the trail. The headline routes are the high-altitude classics, from Everest Base Camp and the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal to the Inca Trail in Peru and Torres del Paine in Patagonia, but the collection runs just as deep through Europe, with treks across Greece, Italy, Spain, Slovenia and the deserts of Israel. Big-mountain treks are guided for safety and altitude, while many of the European routes are self-guided with your bags moved between stays.

Why Choose Trekking for Your Holiday?

Trekking is for travellers who want the reward of reaching somewhere on foot, whether that is a Himalayan base camp or a remote European ridge. Multi-day routes take you deep into terrain you cannot reach any other way, with each day building on the last and the scenery opening up as you climb. Tours are graded by distance, altitude and difficulty, and you can pick a short introductory trek or a demanding high-altitude route to match your experience.
