Testimonials

Traveling with Walking Adventures International is an experience unto itself. Here are some things people say about us - and we're so pleased that they recognize the value of the little extras. Our goal with each trip is to explore the history, culture, scenery and people "where the rubber meets the road".

But rather than toot our own horn, here's what some of our friends say it:

Mackinac 2004

This is my 4th tour with you and I generally love the places you go and a chance to walk and see some of the area. When some of the volksmarcher people meet with us it gives you a better feel of the area.”
--Carol B; Loomis, CA

As a recreational walker, I enjoy areas more diverse than all woods or all lakes. But there were so many fun things planned along the way – Mackinac Island, Madeline Island, Wooden Shoe Factory, House on the Rock. Fun meals. The “fun” was a good balance to the quiet walks. Our tour guides were always there to smooth over any rough spots…of which there were few!”
--Edie K; Loomis, CA

This was our first WAI tour & we were very impressed with all aspects. Good job. We’ll be back.”
--Ralph & Sandra B; Greensboro, SC

Pair a love of walking with a passion for travel, & you come up with Walking Adventures International! The tour was highly recommended by friends who have traveled extensively with WAI, and it surpassed my expectations.”
--Ralph & Sandra B; Greensboro, SC

“The planning and completeness of each tour is superb! Every aspect of the tours is handled to perfection.”
--Helen W; San Antonio, TX

Australia 2004

“I enjoyed it so much, I wish I could start it all over again tomorrow instead of heading back to the states. Thanks WAI for the great time you showed us all – great memories are now mine!”
--Betty H; San Antonio, TX

“Always have had a great time, fun, good leaders, and like minded travelers.”
--Jean T; Veradale, WA

“Thanks to Loraine & Lee for all they did to make sure we all had the best possible experience in the best WAI tradition – kind of a “friend in need” relationship with all of us.”
--Bob M; Schenectady, NY

“WAI is synonymous with excellence, service, outstanding planning and preparation in a humanistic, caring in group travel.”
--Mike C; Sewell, NJ

Costa Rica 2004

“The two nights we spent in the ‘rustic’ cabins were what I thought Costa Rica would be. I don’t think we could have experienced the areas by staying only one night in each place. That’s one thing I look forward to with W.A. Having a fun and different experience than I’d find with other tour groups that just go to the main cities and staying hotels like I could stay in at home.”
--Janet S; Ogden, UT

“I love adventure and with both the zipline and the whitewater rafting I smiled myself to sleep at night. A truly great experience!”
--Laurie W; Grandville, MI

“The trips have always been very informative and fun, and I feel well taken care of.”
--Jo T; Portland, OR

“Great tour, good people, all around good time as per usual. It was fun to try the native cuisine – they were good cooks.
--Carol K; Ridgefield, WA

“The guides are excellent. The trips are well planned. We get to have a variety of experiences. The places are always new even unexpected experiences are interesting.”
--Delina C; Tigard, OR

Dixie 2004

“I have enjoyed every walking tour I’ve taken. I find almost all walkers to be very friendly and kind. After six or seven trips with Walking Adventures Int., I don’t find other trips as much fun!”
--Julie R; Smithville, OH

Iceland 2004

“I have never been disappointed in any aspect of a Walking Adventures trip. The trips always exceed my expectations.”
--Thelma G; Richmond, IN

Eastern Europe 2004

“Quality of every facet of tour is superb, my reason for registering frequently – I have found my tour company!”
--Kay E; Bedford, IN

“I think you have a winning format, that I would not even try to make any suggestions for improvement to such a dedicated tour leader Thanks Dan – to you and your company.”
--Jane E; Manotick, ON

Northwest National Parks 2004

“I was pleasantly surprised that you/the tour was not as good as advertised but even better. At first I thought the tour was a little expensive, but it has been worth every penny. Quality does matter!”
--Vicki C; Palm Harbor, FL

“The best guides, caring, considerate, wondering sense of humor enjoyed our group being a part of the adventure not just leading.”
--Patricia M; Hanover, PA

“Marilyn has traveled quite a bit in the past few years. She says that this trip is one of the best she has been on. I wasn’t sure what to expect – but I had a great time! I was one of the youngest on the trip – burt these wlkers had me pushing to keep up! Lee & Loraine made us feel so welcome. We both appreciated the extra stops that were made to show us points of interst and photo ops. I was helpful when local walkers came out to point out special things. Thank you for helping us create so many special memories.”
--Nora S; Livonia, MI

France/Italy 2004

“We were very unsure of participating in a group tour. What a wonderful surprise. This is just the kind of travel we've been looking for. Thank you so much Dan for your patience, humor, knowledge & sense of adventure!”
--Pam M; Laguna Hills, CA
