General Comments
I have taken independent walking holidays in Britain with several companies so far and Contours has easily been the best. Their website is informative and easy to use, the staff are very knowledgeable, the tour information is comprehensive, the accommodation provided excellent and the baggage transfer service worked perfectly.
