Walk away with a super value, quality holiday

26th February 2014 Print
Conquer Mount Toubkal!

The word ‘cheap’ normally means poor quality; not so with specialist operator Walks Worldwide which has great, week-long holidays, at exceptionally good prices – many are under £500 for a week (land only).

And, the continued growth of low-cost airlines such as Easyjet and Ryanair means that air travel can be purchased very reasonably for those who prefer to make their own arrangements (but, fully-bonded for financial security, Walks Worldwide can book flights on request).
