GBAn amazing blend of culture An amazing blend of culture, North American native peoples history, natural beauty, excellent food, historic inns, and great company. Great attention to individual needs of participants as well as COVID-19 safety precautions. Guides provided yummy homemade cookies and healthy outdoor snacks and delicious "on the go" lunches in the beautiful surroundings. I would suggest future trips in this area provide more details on difficulty level of hikes the day before so appropriate choices can be made. Calls to restaurants a few days ahead would assure open status.

GBFantastic trip! Fantastic trip! I'm a repeat traveler with BIG ROUND WORLD for good reason. Deirdre and Phillippe worked together to provide a truly enjoyable trip including historical facts of the areas, current fun events like wine tasting, art immersion in a real quarry, and tasting the regional specialties of local foods. The daily walks/hikes are designed to enhance the views and cultural sites of the areas. The small group size allows for individual attention while also promoting group experiences and new friendships. In addition they use great hotels, and wonderful local restaurants. I have the highest regards for this travel company and look forward to traveling with them again!

GBI had a wonderful experience hiking on… I had a wonderful experience hiking on the Coast to Coast Path. I took over one thousand pictures and I am still processing them. I also really appreciated Deidre's touring expertise. She did everything but walk for me and always with laughter and a smile. I would highly recommend the trip.

GBGiven the challenges of the Covid… Given the challenges of the Covid epidemic, Big Round World was able to provide a very good trip. They had back up solutions when key areas were closed to public access. They also provided some unique experiences with local experts.

GBGreat company, great guides, and a really fun time Our tour guides were fantastic. They paid attention to everyone's needs, were very knowledgeable, and were constantly looking out for the entire group. I had a broken foot during thsi trip, and there was constant monitoring of the activities for what I could do. It also rained a lot while we were there, and they were very flexible about where we went to make sure we didn't have too many walks in the rain. Our group also had a lot of COVID, and they were great about following their COVID policy and turning quickly with the events. I was very appreciative of the experience.
