Choose with confidence

How intense are our tours?

We want every traveler to feel confident choosing a tour, so every trip says plainly how much walking and standing it involves. Read these before you book — and if you are unsure which suits you, call us and describe an ordinary day at home. We would far rather talk you into the right tour than sell you the wrong one.

The three levels

What each pace actually means

Every trip is marked with one of three, so you know before you book.

Easy and relaxed

A very relaxed pace with minimal physical activity. Walking is limited and generally on flat, paved surfaces, with plenty of opportunities to rest. Much of the sightseeing happens from the coach. Ideal if you want to enjoy the journey without strenuous activity.

Light activity

A comfortable pace with light walking and moderate time on your feet. You should be able to walk through attractions, hotels and restaurants at an easy pace and manage short distances on your own. Expect some stairs or slightly uneven ground, with rest built into the day.

Moderate activity

A fuller day with regular walking and longer sightseeing. You should be comfortable walking over a mile a day at a steady pace to keep up with the group, and able to manage airports, stairs and occasional uneven ground independently. Best if you stay fairly active.

Still not sure which suits you?

Call us and describe an ordinary day — how far you walk, whether stairs are a problem, whether you use a cane. We would far rather talk you into the right tour than sell you the wrong one.
