Really impressed with the service provided! Matthew was very informative and quick to respond to any questions we had. Couldn't recommend more- thanks again!

Matthew at WWW planned our five-day St Cuthbert’s Way walk from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to Lindisfarne. He planned and booked everything, even including pre-paid taxi rides when the leg of a walk ended some distance from our overnight accommodation. Everything went really smoothly. His advice about when we would need to book dinner in advance was spot on - critical in relatively big villages like Wooler and Jedburgh, where you’d expect choice but may have just one option. The pack he provided in advance was superb: three OS maps, a bespoke SCW map and a day-by-day guide. He was there too whenever we had a query but, once we had set off, all the info was there. Great accommodation choices too. The only extra item that we found provided a comfort blanket that we bought ourselves was Ronald Turnbull’s excellent St Cuthbert’s Way 2nd edition guide. It gives more step-by-step instructions, though the Way is extremely well marked and the OS maps are really clear. I would invest in a WWW package in future without a second thought. Exceptional professional service - Phil & Sophie

Communication excellent throughout, arrangements for us and our 2 big dogs were perfect, luggage transport hassle free, everywhere we stayed on the St Cuthberts Way was so welcoming. Stunning scenery and challenging walks. Just back and exhausted now though!

The Ridgeway was a very beautiful hiking trail. We really appreciated Matthew's individual organisation and service, especially compared to other organisations. The help with the car park planning for our car and working out the connections with public buses was very helpful. Thank you very much!

Great walk! Organisation was smooth with bags being at each destination. Accommodation was good - comfortable and staff friendly. Could have done with drying facilities at each stopping location especially as this was a walking holiday in April in the UK!

The Hadrian's Wall Walk was something I dreamt about doing for years! Finding a company who provided everything I needed was a blessing. Communication was excellent and the resources they provided comprehensive. I will definitely be using Walk With Williams for future adventures!

Cancelled walking tour full 6 months in advance and was charged £277 for the privilege. Shocking !

The organisation of the itinerary was great and the booking of accommodation was much better than we could have managed on our own without local knowledge. Matthew was extremely helpful and responded quickly and efficiently to email queries as we prepared for the trip.

I’m a bit of a control freak so I checked with all the B&B’s prior to arriving and all was in place as booked already by the company. Our bags were picked up as promised and delivered in plenty of time. Taxis were available when we needed them. All went well.

The team at Walk with Williams was very quick to respond both when we were planning the trip and after we arrived. They customized a route for us, and we loved all the different accommodations. They also gave us advice on train bookings and SIM cards. Would book with Matthew again!

This is my 1st time doing a self guided walking holiday and using WalkwithWilliams company to facilitate this. From the offset, I found them extremely helpful and responsive with their communication, customising my trip for a solo female traveller and information sharing. Their itineray / information pack was very well collated and included all the essential resources to make my trip run smoothly. My varied accommodations were of a very good standard and further added to my overall expereince. This added to the very positive, enjoyable experience I had and would highly recommend anyone doing this particular walking route which requires a moderate fitness level given 1st few days involve some hilly sections and long mileage true to it's write up. It is a very scenic and beautiful 'Way' full of much very interesting historical / heritage linked with St Cuthbert etc and many varied geographical stunning scenic tranquil locations.
I would highly recommend doing this route for multiple reasons mentioned above and WalkwithWillams as an excellent organisation to facilitate this. I will be using them again for my future planned trips.

The hotels booked were lovely and comfortable with suggestions for evening meals all good too. The St Cuthberts Way walk took us through some beautiful countryside and the guide that Mark sent gave us had useful pieces of information.

Good communication. Great accommodation. Taxi services were excellent. Baggage moves were always on time.

We’re happy that we booked through Walk with Williams. They made everything so easy - even if we’d had the time to make the arrangements ourselves, we wouldn’t have known where to start. They also responded promptly and fully whenever we had a question, and it was clear that they really care.
Guesthouse quality was questionable at times, though this was due to room allocation by the guesthouses themselves, because our dog was with us (indeed, WwW did well to find dog friendly accommodation for us on all nights).
A really enjoyable walking holiday - we intend using WwW going forwards.

Accomodation was as expected, all were friendly and helpful .
Where transport was required these were all on time and also helpful.
No issues with luggage transportation which were always at our destination on arrival .
Slight confusion finding the penultimate B&B but have made a suggestion to owner for a slight change to her guide.

Everything went according to plan. Really well organized.

Beautiful walking holiday, well organised. With good information beforehand. B&Bs were good and the luggage transport was fine. It was a great experience to be ‘walking with Williams’!

Well organised and very well supported throughout the walk.
All happened as planned with no issues what so ever.
Would highly recommend Walk with Williams.

We had a very enjoyable 4 days walking the Peddars Way last week. Thank you to the Walks with Williams team, their fantastic personalised itinerary was faultless. 5*s for the accommodation chosen we all thoroughly enjoyed the 'curry night' at the king William iv at Sedeford on the final night.

Great walking holiday..
Variable B&B and some more details about the days walk would have been helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed the Norfolk walk and its diverse coastline.
