Discover the world's most beautiful landscapes on foot

Search all walking holidays

Step into adventure

Walking holidays offer the perfect way to explore stunning destinations whilst immersing yourself in local culture, wildlife, and heritage. Whether you're seeking gentle strolls through picturesque villages or more adventurous routes across dramatic landscapes, we've got over 300 meticulously curated walking experiences waiting for you.

At Ramble Worldwide, we believe there's something magical about discovering the world on foot. Our walking holidays let you connect with destinations in a way that simply isn't possible from a coach window – you'll hear the church bells echoing across cobblestone streets, breathe in the fragrant scents of olive groves, and pause for conversations with locals who become part of your journey's story.

What is the difference between walking, hiking & trekking?

Walking Holidays

Leisurely exploration with scenic views: Perfect for those who love gentle discovery, walking holidays focus on enjoyment and relaxation at a comfortable pace. You'll wander through vineyards, explore charming towns, and soak in cultural treasures without the pressure of covering long distances.

Best for: Cultural immersion, gentle exercise, scenic photography, and peaceful contemplation.

Hiking Holidays

Moderate challenge with stunning natural beauty: A step up from walking, hiking holidays take you into more rugged environments like national parks and mountain ranges. You'll still appreciate beautiful landscapes whilst enjoying the satisfaction of reaching specific landmarks or viewpoints.

Best for: Nature lovers seeking moderate challenges and rewarding summits.

Trekking Holidays

Challenging adventures to remote areas: Our most adventurous offering, trekking holidays involve multi-day journeys into remote wilderness areas. Think Himalayan peaks, Andean trails, or Alpine circuits – these are transformative adventures for the well-prepared explorer.

Best for: Experienced walkers seeking epic challenges and remote destinations.

Featured walking holidays

From gentle countryside rambles to coastal path adventures, our walking holidays showcase the world's most beautiful landscapes at a pace that lets you truly savour every moment.
