Scheduled, Private, and Custom Tours for Every Traveler

Customwalks offers regularly scheduled guided hiking tours that anyone can join or you can close a tour and have a private departure for friends and family. We also specialize in designing customized adventures for private groups. There is something in the name, after all!

So, you can;

  1. join other like-minded travelers for a fun, active, and carefree holiday
  2. ask us for a closed/private departure of one of our regular tour itineraries
  3. let us create a custom tour for you and your family or friends

Scheduled departures: Our scheduled departures are designed to offer excellent value while ensuring you don’t miss a thing. They feature upper-range accommodations and fantastic experiences, but they’re not luxury tours—and that’s by design. We believe chasing high-end luxury can throw a tour off balance, and we’re all about keeping it real, if you know what we mean. After all, anyone can book a five-star hotel; the real skill lies in crafting an unforgettable travel experience you couldn’t create on your own.

  • Hotels: Our tour accommodations are in charming, comfortable, well-located three and four-star hotels and country inns. All rooms have private en suite WC (except for our tours in the Republic of Georgia, the Algerian Sahara, or our Dolomites "Alta Via" where WC and shower facilities are shared).
  • Food and Wine: We focus on sourcing local specialties with an emphasis on healthy, well-balanced meals. From charming trattorias to cozy bistros, we know where to find the best food—and we often include special culinary experiences, like a farm lunch with a Turkish family or a cooking demonstration at a favorite restaurant. We carefully curate menus that showcase the highlights of each restaurant while offering a delicious cross-section of regional cuisine. Exceptional food is always a priority for us, and the same goes for wine. After all, it’s no coincidence that we travel (and many of us live) in some of the world’s finest wine-growing regions.
  • Activity: Our hikes through the countryside are usually between 3 - 5 hours a day (8 – 15 kms). Your luggage is moved by van. You can see a detailed description of the activity level for each tour on their respective web pages. 
  • Special Events: Our destinations have so much to offer: cooking, wine, artists and artisans, dancers, musicians, and thousands of years of history, so we complement our hikes with special events such as cooking demonstrations, special lunches with locals, winery visits and tastings, performances, and guided visits with local experts to historic towns, castles, and villas, to name but a few.

Private Tours: Pick any of our itineraries and have a private departure for your group.  A private tour allows you to go where you want, with whom you want, and when you want. 

Custom Tours: A custom tour is a private tour—with a personal touch. Instead of simply reserving one of our published itineraries for your group, we create the tour to match your preferences.  Want upgraded hotels, a focus on food and wine, adjusted hike difficulty, or a longer trip? Whatever your vision, we’ll make it happen.
