Urban and Suburban hiking at its best on a Rambling holiday in France
Our Rambling tours in France comprise light, half-day circular walks in urban environments and their hinterlands, with afternoon options. B & B, transport and luggage transfers are all included. No car is required. France Rambling holidays are all themed and feature ‘looped’ rambling paths rather than straight-line trails. The advantages are that…
- Rambles start and finish from your own hotel for extra convenience and comfort;
- Rambling trails are devised and selected with your enjoyment in mind, not the imperative to ramble from hotel A to accommodation B;
- A particular day’s rambling can often be shortened or lengthened, which takes the slog out of rambling, facilitates greater rambling trail fun and empowers you in the process; and
- rambling tours generally last half the day, leaving you free to tailor the afternoon and evening to your own interests based on the available options we provide you with.
Our rambling holidays in France do not require a car, and have been meticulously planned to ensure you maximize your time and enjoyment whilst the issues surrounding ‘in situ’ transportation have been resolved for you. Whether a day’s transport involves a taxi transfer, luggage transfer or a short train ride, everything has been booked and paid for by ourselves.
For quickest access to all our walking holidays in France, the following airports are recommended: Avignon, Marseille, Montpellier and Nimes. For more travel information click here, where you can also find details of travel by rail and car.
