Inntravel Avis 243

Having been a loyal customer of Inntravel for a number of years (My next Inntravel holiday is imminent) I had intended to book another trip today. The price of this trip, quoted during a phone call, has increased by almost 21.5%, versus the current brochure price - Inntravel brochure pricing is "From" a stated value, recognising that the price excludes any air travel costs. I was advised by Inntravel's consultant that the quoted price is "In line with our latest/current reservations system" - whatever that supposed to mean - but it's simply opportunistic price hiking, without a justifiable reason. I'm very sad to say that our already booked holiday will be our last with Inntravel. There are other companies that now have better pricing structures.

We just recently completed a long distance walking tour in the Dordogne Valley in France. Inn Travel met all of our expectations and more.Seamless organization from the start of our enquire process, right up to providing excellent descriptions of all the walking trails, to perfect luggage transfer with all luggage being there for us in our rooms upon arrival.The selection of hotel accommodation was superb.In our first village of Meyronne we stayed in a chateau, eating Michelin star quality food served expertly ‘à la francaise’’ overlooking a lovely valley.This quality continued on our second village stop at Pont D’oussey in the village of La Cave where once again suppers and breakfasts were of superior quality with wonderful picnic lunches provided. A different flavour of down home cooking and hospitality awaited us in Cales where as luck would have it there was a fabulous Flower Festival happening on May 1st while we were there. Our final stop at Le Troubadour a hotel in Rocamadour was so special as being somewhat off the beaten path it was peaceful with friendly staff who even took us to the train station just to be nice.Staff were definitely a special highlight… always friendly and helpful with a good knowledge of English for those who need such language help. Very nicely set up with well marked trails showing the way clearly and loved having the option to spend more than one day at each location to allow for a nice extended walk around each village. The weather was perfect which was a bonus but trails were easy to follow with the addition of walking poles a great help. Spring is a lovely time to do this tour, beautiful Spring flowers were in abundance all along the way with temperate weather making it pleasant for sure. It was very quiet, we never really met other walkers until we hit Rocamadour which is very popular. Wonderful, peaceful experience of nature, with all the amenities that inn Travel provided to ensure maximum comfort throughout our lovely experience of walking in France.

We just finished a wonderful hike on the Costa Brava in Spain-Countryside to Coast! Fantastic walks, absolutely stunning scenery, wonderful hotels who served us really good food, and everyone was so very nice! Our plane from DC was delayed so we missed our train from Barcelona to Girona. But in true amazing InnTravel fashion, when I looked on my phone, they had already issued us new tickets for the next train! This company is really the best-we plan to continue doing their great hikes until we can walk no more!!!!!

We have done quite a few trips now with InnTravel, our most recent one was in the mountains near Alicante. We loved the walks and hotels were great as well.
We saw two red squirrels and numerous golden eagles.
This was one of our best trips through InnTravel.

Just returned from our 7th Inntravel trip, this time to Wensleydale in Yorkshire. Wonderful. As always, the accommodation was just right, with great walking notes and suggestions, and seamless luggage transfer. Excellent value for money. I hope to plan an 8th trip soon.

Great walking holiday, all the organisation was perfect. Great walking instructions and hotels we all great.

Having had a really enjoyable stay at C'as Curial in Soller last April we were very pleased to be able to book the same hotel this year. However we were devastated to find on arrival that no room was available. After a lot of discussion with the owner and Inn Travel we were found a room at the Gran Hotel, which is a nice enough business hotel, but doesn't have the rural location or character of C'as Curial. If it had been practical we would have caught the next flight home. We shall not be using Inn Travel again.

We’ve been holidaying with Inn Travel for over 10 years , most recently walking near Soller, Majorca staying at C’as Curial, a wonderful family run agroturismo, comprising 14 characterful suites nestled within an ‘orange farm’. Inn Travel choose great places to stay, many ‘off the beaten track’ or hidden gems
The walks are graded 2, and we appreciated the walking notes with additional information about the area.
We appreciated Inn travel contacting us to ensure that we’d arrived safely as apparently there was an Air traffic control strike in parts of Spain.
Overall another great holiday with Inn Travel and Ca’s Curial is worth the upgrade if you want a beautiful setting, and relaxation between adventurous walks .

My wife and I recently went on a self guided cycling trip to Catalonia with Inntravel. We had not used them before and we had no personal recommendation. So did not know what to expect. The trip turned out to be way better that anything that we could have expected. The information provided including GPX files made navigating easy. The hotels were again above expectation. Madramanya was a wonderful old farmhouse tastefully upgraded to the highest standard, the food at Mas Rabiol was the best we ate anywhere in Spain, the Costa Brava hotels were excellent with extremely helpful staff and good food. Being with Inntravel seemed to give one a privileged status. The service from the bike provider was excellent. He respondent to an issue very quickly even though it was the weekend and the problem (lost key) was entirely our fault. I look forward to another trip with them in the future.

Inntravel provided excellent hiking trail information both in a handy notebook and in gpx files. In addition, the hotels they selected and recommended eateries were great. Since they provide multiple options for self-guided hikes and dining on any day, you have flexibility to make your own choices while also having some of the guesswork taken out of the trip. And if you’d choose to make your own agenda, that’s okay, too! We just completed a walking holiday along the Côte d’Azur through InnTravel. We’ll definitely use them again.

We just finished the InnTravel Western Crete walk+ car. We enjoyed this trip immensely and especially liked having a car! We completed all the walks except for the Irini (too wet) and Samaria Gorges (closed). We relied on the GPX navigation and used the notes for back up. The hikes were scenic and different. Most were moderately difficult largely owing to some rocks and scree. We drove all over Western Crete without problems. A highlight was the Elia Hotel. What an amazing place and the staff were wonderful. The food was made in house, with many ingredients sourced from the garden. The panoramic views over the valley were incredible. We enjoyed everything about this tour which was invigorating yet so relaxing.

Our Walk along St. Francis Way in Umbria was among the best walking trips we have done. The walking notes were clear and easy to follow and the towns we visited were charming and far less touristy than in nearby Tuscany. The walks were varied, with many panoramic views and lovely scenery. The hotels were comfortable. We also liked that we had some 2 night stays, which allowed us to modify or even skip a day if we needed to rest.

We found the walking routes to be very well judged, with excellent support information on the towns that we stayed in as well as detailed description of the walks themselves. The hotels were cleverly chosen, with a nice range of charming old villas and a couple of modern hotels. Overall, a well organised and thoroughly enjoyable holiday.

Fabulous week walking in the Prosecco hills. The April sunshine was perfect for us and the level of difficulty of the walks (2) was a perfect level to make us feel like we had done some work each day. The walking notes provided by Inntravel were accurate. We downloaded the GPX files onto my husband's watch and the combination was just what we needed. We didnt ever get lost. The estimated timings were pretty accurate, if anything a bit generous, we did most walks with a little bit to spare. All the hotels were excellent, but the last 2 in particular were very special in different ways. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff at the Municipio 1815 and being served a 5 star breakfast taken on the terrace by a young man with impeccable service while looking out into the hills was fabulous. But then the stay at the CastelBrando was just an amazing experience. The treck up wasn't quite as bad as we thought it might be for steepness and it was well worth the effort. We were out of the busy season and were upgraded to the 'royal suite' and in fact treated as for royalty for the whole of our stay. The castle is fabulous to explore and the stay included a 3 hour visit to their Spa complex, which was a great way to end the week. There is a funicular that goes to the town below so no need to repeat the treck up, thankfully! A couple of tips - we started our holiday over the Easter weekend. Most of the hotels were booked for bed and breakfast only. The environment is quite rural and while restaurants were advertised on Google as being open in the evenings, they clearly weren't. This was also the case for several of the Osterias referred to in the Inntravel notes. Do ask the hotel staff for advice and help with booking evening restaurants as opening times seemed to vary considerably. Refreshingly, we enjoyed being in a part of Italy where English is not so readily spoken, so brush up on your Italian! The taxis all worked brilliantly, always on time, all delightful people. The countryside through which we walked was wonderful - a great mix of vineyards and woodlands surrounded by snow-topped mountains, completely invigorating. We now think differently about the effort that goes in to making a bottle of Prosecco and now know what the 'good stuff' tastes like too! All in all, it was a unique adventure - very highly recommended.

Gozo is one of the most beautiful places we’ve explored with Inntravel—rich in history, dotted with peaceful villages, and full of stunning churches that make every step feel special. It made for a truly memorable trekking holiday.
As ever, Inntravel’s directions were spot on—clear, reliable, and easy to follow. The only times we went astray were entirely our own fault, usually because we were too busy gawping at the views and wandered straight past a turning.
The Grand Hotel was perfectly placed, just a short stroll from the port, with bus stops conveniently nearby. Over Easter Sunday and Monday the buses were understandably packed, so we occasionally resorted to an Uber—but that was a small price to pay for travelling at such a busy time.
In fact, Gozo’s laid-back charm rather spoiled us. Moving on to Malta felt like being dropped back into the fast lane after days of gentle trails and quiet island life.
All in all, a fantastic trip—packed with sights, scenery, and just enough adventure to leave us happily exhausted and in need of a rest once home.

We had the most incredible holiday - thanks to great organisation, fabulously chosen walks, useful GPX files, awesome hotels and inns and the wealth of information that we received in our packs. Thank you INNTRAVEL. We were also blessed with extremely good weather, amazing host hospitality and the fact that our holiday coincided with Easter - so we naturally observed the incredible Easter processions in each of the villages - what a bonus!

The walks were perfect lengths and for most of the routes there were hardly any other walkers around (blissful). Walking poles an absolute necessity for us - especially for the more challenging Barranc d'infern.

We loved it!

Had a great walking week with Inntravel to Gozo. The hotel is well situated and comfortable but will be better when renovations are complete. Having a bus pass and free to do what we wanted every day meant we saw lots of the island and interesting historical sights as well as good walks. Met some other walkers on a group holiday who were finding the going a bit difficult but we could please ourselves. Another good holiday thank you.

We had a wonderful week hiking in Madeira at the end of March beginning of April. Although a number of key Levadas were closed Inntravel provided alternative options which worked well.
We particularly appreciated the notes which highlighted the conditions on some of the Levadas so we were well prepared for all conditions.
The hotels were superb the highlights being Porto Bay golf hotel in Santo de Serra and Cantanheiro in Funchal. The gpx files were a godsend.
I can’t finish without singing the praises of Angelo who pick us up from the airport and collect us promptly as expected over the course of the week He was charming, professional and informative.

Walking the Vicentina coast, Portugal

Thank you for a wonderful holiday. The Inns provided delicious 3 course dinners and good breakfasts, were very welcoming, bedrooms were really great.

We were so impressed by our Portuguese hosts – so friendly and conversational. The pick ups went very very well. Special commendations to Sylvia who collected us us when we arrived and drove us for 2 hours at the end to Faro airport. She was superlative – our sadness that we forgot to give her a tip. It meant an exhausting 4 hour drive for her and she did it all with great willingness!

The walks along the coast were super. The sea was so wild – waves crashing and the wild flowers were delightful. The first few days the weather was perfect. However it had been raining heavily during February and we had to cross extremely challenging boggy areas in the lower parts, but we managed. The last 2 days the weather broke and we walked hours through the rain, but we coped. The 20 km walk to Capo Lago would have been an impossibility. We walked only half of the distance by taking a taxi at the outset. Fortunately my nephew had seen that at walk’s close we would be crossing the beach at the Spring high tide and he hurried us along. I think we were the last to be able to cross, despite the rapidly incoming tide, without getting wet. Those that came later were up to their calves. It’s certainly worth warning walkers of this possibility.

At Faro airport we nearly missed our plane, because after Security we found ourselves joining a huge crowd of hundreds to have passports checked by only 3 officials. It was taking forever and extremely worrying. I had to jump the queue to the front. After this was the long trek through the duty free and then finding the directions to the right gate.

All in all it was a fabulous holiday; somehow the days were really stretched and gave us full value and we’ve come back feeling really refreshed.

We owe you a lot of thanks for all the arranging and organising you did.

O, I forgot to mention that the inland trails given proved impossible to follow as they hadn't been maintained as trails.

Great pre-travel information, and help when we needed it to sort out an alternative means of getting to Ronda when our train was cancelled at very short notice.
Four very different, characterful hotels in central locations.
Useful suggestions for walking tours and places to eat in the folder provided.
Inntravel took away much of the stress associated with independent travel, leaving us free to enjoy the experience.
