We have decades of experience in Europe, and all our excursions have an ideal mix of untouristed regions and must-see attractions. From small Greek islands rich in ancient mythology to a Georgian supra feast hosted by our Trip Leader’s extended family—we’ll introduce you to our local friends and show you an authentic side of Europe you’ve only imagined.
Hiking the Faroe Islands | View Itinerary
Halfway between Iceland and Scotland, the scenery of the Faroe Islands boasts an otherworldly contrast of cloud-piercing mountain peaks and black-sand beaches. As we walk emerald moorlands and visit colorful Nordic communities, we’ll meet the enthusiastic (and sometimes eccentric) artisans of this remote, yet enchanting archipelago.
Scotland’s Orkney Islands and Viking Heritage | View Itinerary
Discover dramatic sea cliffs as we hike the coastlines of Scotland’s far north. Crossing verdant headlands with spectacular views, we’ll encounter the Old Man of Hoy (a precariously tall sea stack), explore a 5,000-year-old Neolithic village, and learn about the Viking heritage of the Orkney Islands from a local boat builder.
Hiker’s Journey to the Caucasus | View Itinerary
Join our friendly Trip Leader, Eka, as we hike lodge-to-lodge across the rolling mountains of her native home, the Republic of Georgia. In this unspoiled region, we’ll follow pine-covered trails through wild Tusheti National Park and learn about Georgia’s ancient wine-making traditions. Our stays include family-run guesthouses in villages undisturbed by time.
From France to Spain: Hiking in the Basque Country | View Itinerary
Our route through this undiscovered mountain realm passes through the beautiful Basque villages of Baraibar and Betelu, where white-washed homes with red-tiled roofs nestle amid rolling hills and vineyards. Along the way, we’ll savor local cheese, delightful wines, and indulge in a pintxo lunch (or two!).
Montenegro and the Adriatic Coast | View Itinerary
Escape the coastal crowds in an undiscovered hiker’s paradise of craggy limestone peaks, primeval woodlands, and jewel-like mountain lakes. Our Montenegro adventure takes us through the Durmitor mountains, south to the rustic town Kolasin—the gateway to the stunning forests of Biogradska Gora National Park.
Croatia: Istria and the Dalmatian Coast | View Itinerary
This carefully designed hiking route takes us to the hidden corners of Croatia, through olive groves and truffle country, to hill towns straight out of a fairy tale. From castle-topped Motovun, to sleepy Gracisce, to cliff-side Lubenice, our journey showcases the natural beauty and authentic splendor of Istria and the Dalmatian Coast.
