Tour Highlights

The 62-mile route is one of the most stunning and varied long distance walking routes in Britain.

Walk across farmland and woodland, and across the banks of the River Tweed
Cross the River Till and walk along some typical Roman roads.
Overnight in villages such as Jedburgh, Kirk Yetholm, and Wooler
Cross the famous causeway to reach Holy Island of Lindisfarne; depending on tides take the Causeway Road or walk in the footsteps of historic pilgrims as you tread across the sands
Pilgrim stay on Lindisfarne - attend a local service and visit the Priory and Centre
Extend your tour to Bamburgh for a boat trip to Inner Farne Island, where Cuthbert moved to after retiring from monastic life, visit Bamburgh Castle and continue to Durham Cathedral, where St Cuthbert's relics are interred

What Our Clients Say

I was very fortunate to be on their 70th and 75th D-Day celebration tours. The service and attention to details was exceptional. It was very moving to go back.

As a Jane Austen enthusiast, this tour was perfect - and the Jane Austen Festival in Bath was just fabulous to see!

Words fail me...The Downton Abbey was a perfectly wonderful travel experience! We did not know we would be the ONLY guests at the Abbey. When we realised how truly exclusive our tour was we were speechless! Surreal being there and actually meeting Lady Carnarvon.
