Accommodation and bag transfer worked seamlessly. Loved the Guibo travel app concept but it has some technical issues that need sorting out.

A quite varied walk with spectacular scenery every day. The path takes you through several interesting small towns and villages, and across a mix of farmland, woods, and moorlands on high ridges which made every day an adventure of discovery. The logistics of bookings and baggage transfers worked without a hitch and the guidebook & maps, route notes and GPX files were all very helpful.

The West Highland Way fulfilled every one of my dreams about seeing the Scottish Highlands. It was wonderful that all the accommodations and luggage transfer were reserved for me ahead of time and all I had to do was just walk up! Everywhere I stayed was run/owned by such nice people and I never had a bad meal!

Coast to Coast: Walk Kirkby Stephen to Robin Hood's Bay

(1 review )

No booking fees

Best price guaranteed

I had a very well planned and arranged trip on the East Coast to Coast from Kirkby Stephen to Robin Hood's Bay. The accommodations arranged were comfortable, friendly, and well situated along the trail. The bag transport worked very well, as did the return transfer to Kirkby Stephen where my car was waiting. The advice on dining was right on and the maps, instructions, and attractions along the way were super. Well done!

Superb navigation app along with well-chosen route friendlly accomodation with a particular mention to Hillingford B&B in Ramsey. All cases transferred smoothly.

Enjoyed the trip 100%. People services were well organized and thoughtful. The scenery was gorgeous. Only one criticism was lack of a outdoor toilets which may have lessened the disturbing litter of toilet paper occasionally spotted.
