The Walk with Williams team were very helpful and well organised.

The Walk with Williams team were very helpful during the booking process, we had a few questions which they were able to answer.
The accommodation and travel (from path to accommodation) was all arranged by the team and all went smoothly, they also arranged transport from the finish point back to the start.
The itinerary was well presented with good recommendation for evening meals and packed lunches for each day.
I would use Walk with Williams again for another long walk and would recommend to others.

Best coach company you will ever find …

I couldn't travel with a better company and don't intend to. Lovely friendly staff brilliant, second to none drivers. Every journey simple to book and arrange. I travel on my own and am well taken care of from start to finish. No worries at all. Day trips are hugely enjoyable days out. Holidays are brilliant. Excellent value, top hotels,outstanding itineraries and the best drivers you will ever find
Whenever l have any concerns however small the brilliant drivers are always on hand and delighted to help
Look no further, book with Williams, you will never regret it. Excellence guaranteed

Wonderful trip!

Great communication and planning of our trip that was not a regular one for the company. We really enjoyed our stays in the inn's and exploring the small Cotswolds towns and villages. Matthew was very helpful in accommodating all of our requests outside of the walking!

Cotswold way

Very pleased with
Walk with williams
All accommodation and breakfast was good except for 1 place which did not do breakfast although they did have a small fridge which had a tiny pot of muesli in but no milk so we didnt bother with breakfast ,
Also 1 day when we finished our walk we had nearly 2 mile walk to our b and b which we didnt mind at all but a good mile of it was on a main road with no footpath, apparently there is a path that drops down thru fields and a valley but we didnt know about it, we were just told when u get to this lane, turn left and follow to our accommodation,
But overall we were very pleased,
Most enjoyable walk and we would most likely use again

Dales Way

Overall my experience was very good. Generally the B&B options were of a very high standard and better than I expected. 2 of the accommodation providers were a little further out after a long walk and one was a little old fashioned but overall I would say excellent. Walkwithwilliams were very helpful and easy to contact. I would certainly use them again.

St Cuthbert’s way is a beautiful walk…

St Cuthbert’s way is a beautiful walk in a beautiful part of the country with a wide and varied landscape.
The weather for our walk could not have been better and St Cuthbert’s way is so well marked across the whole route it’s vertically impossible to go wrong.
Our accommodation across the 7 days was varied and very comfortable although we must say the Tankerville Arms in Wooler was “Tragic”, but didn’t detract from a wonderful week’s adventure.
Thanks to Matthew at Walk with Williams it was all very well planned and organised .Thank you for a truly great holiday.

Hadrians Wall Walk

Such a great company to do the Hadrians Wall walk with. A testament to them is that all of the hosts at the B and Bs said how wonderful the company were to deal with too. Our luggage was always waiting for us at the next destination and the accommodation was spot on. We had wonderful breakfasts and the information pack was extremely helpful. A flawless experience that was also excellent value for money!

Well organised on the Ridgeway

I recently walked the Ridgeway and Walk with Williams handled all the organisation of the trip. I was really impressed with all the arrangements prior to my departure including very quick responses to my queries and a reassurance about getting away at the end of the walk. The stages had been planned well (not too long) and the accommodation was near enough to the path to walk to and from (apart from when a taxi picked me up and that all worked well too). The information pack was well-structured and I liked the information format of a page a day so I could understand exactly where I was walking to and how long the stage was. The luggage transfer worked like a dream and I was glad to see my trusty red case at the end of the day. The map and guidebook were great and I didn't get lost at all. I would definitely recommend Walk with Williams to other walkers!

St Cuthbert's Way

Everything was beautifully organised and considered for us. The accommodation bookings and suggestions for where to eat suited us perfectly and it was so appreciated arriving to find our bags waiting each evening! The maps and guides provided were all we needed and knowing there was a helpline we could call very reassuring.

Good organisation and planning

We had 3 days on the Northumberland Coastal Path - from Seahouses to Berwick. The holiday was well organised and communication from Matthew was good - and the walking was the right distance each day for us.

We received the joining instructions and maps in advance; the packing list was helpful but didn't include binoculars, which we wished we had taken - we forgot! The accommodation was generally good - although maybe the choice was made more tricky by having the dog with us. Staff in the hotels were all good.

The luggage transportation worked really well.

I would use Walk With Williams again.

They thought of everything!

Walk with Williams organised everything perfectly for this trip. The pre-trip information was very thorough and helped us to prepare effectively. They really did think of everything! The B&Bs booked were, on the whole, to a high standard with friendly and welcoming hosts. The taxi company was bang on time and reliable, so much so that we used it for our onward travel. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip, made all the easier for knowing that accommodation had been taken care of. A great experience and would use Walk with Williams again without a second thought.

What a fantastic company

What a fantastic company! They took all the stress out of organising a long distance walk. They made the arrangements perfectly and everything ran exactly as we were told it would. Clear and helpful communication throughout. Absolutely recommended!

Perfectly organised walk of the Northumberland Coastal Path

Walk with Williams organised our Northumberland Coastal Path walk perfectly. They found excellent dog-friendly accommodation for us all along our route and arranged the daily transportation of our luggage, which went without a hitch. The map and guidebook they gave us were both very useful for navigation and general information along the route. When we had one query about our accommodation and called, the response from Matthew was immediate and efficient. I can't speak highly enough of Walk with Williams. I'd thoroughly recommend them.

Walkwithwilliams did an excellent job…

Walkwithwilliams did an excellent job with organising my walk following the St Cuthberts way with my dog. All the accommodation booked for me was dog friendly with very comfortable rooms, helpful, friendly staff and excellent food. I enjoyed staying in a variety of places from village pubs to a beautiful countryhouse hotel. The luggage transfer was efficient and I received very helpful and useful information about the walk to help me find my way and have the right kit. Communication was always helpful and efficient.

My wife and I walked the Icknield Way…

My wife and I walked the Icknield Way with Walk with Williams (WWW) earlier this summer. WWW did a great job for us; I had been struggling to find accommodation along the route, and Matthew at WWW found us some excellent places to stay, as well as arranging all our baggage and taxi transfers. The walk was tougher than we expected (we did it in 7 days, in very hot weather), but it was a fantastic experience. Peddars Way next! Thank you, Matthew and the team at WWW.
