Travelled With Us At Any Time Since 1973?

We want to hear your story!

Have you been on a trip with Walkers' Britain recently or at any time since our launch in 1973? If the answer’s yes, then we’d love you to tell us, and the world, about your trip. We are celebrating our 50th anniversary in 2023 and it would be amazing to see how you (or your relatives) have been travelling with us. You can share your story and/or pictures in the form of a short review or Traveller Tale.

Here at Walkers' Britain we believe that our travellers are at the heart of everything we do, and the best way to get a flavour of our trips is to read about the experience of someone who’s already travelled with us. On some of our trips such as the West Highland Way, Coast to Coast Walk and Alpine Pass Route our travellers have been trodding the paths for decades. 

Write a Review

The easiest way to give feedback on your trip is to write a review on Google ReviewsTripAdvisor Reviews, or leave a recommendation on Facebook. Either way, we'd love to hear your feedback.

 

Travellers' Tales

If you'd like to write about your trip in a little more detail, you could write a short account of your holiday - we call them Travellers' Tales. We’re not looking for a straightforward review of your experience like you'd write on a feedback form – we’d love you to include things like your reasons for booking on to a particular trip, pictures, your highlights, your lowlights and what sort of effect did the walk (or cycle) have on you, and your feet!

You could base your tale around the following questions:

1. What is your walking/cycling history?
2. Why did you choose to walk/cycle where you did?
3. How did you prepare?
4. What was your favourite destination?
5. Best food & drink?
6. Biggest surprise?
7. What aspect of the trip did you find most challenging?
8. Do you travel different now as opposed to in the past & what stands out most?

Your contribution will be published in the Travellers’ Tales section of our blog, and you'll receive £50 off the next trip you book with us.

 

Not a writer? No problem!

We’re not looking for Shakespearean perfection – what’s important is that your tale comes from your heart, using your own voice. And if you’d like, you can always send us your draft and we’ll help to turn it into a rounded article.

We can also send you a list of ‘interview’ questions to help you shape your story – have a look at this post by a couple from Wisconsin who followed the Wicklow Way and you’ll get the idea.

Pictures paint a thousand words

Online blog articles work best when there are some great photos alongside them, so please include your photos from the trip when you send us your story.

If you’d prefer to go down a more visual route, your tale could even take the form of a photo gallery with a caption accompanying each shot. Videos are great as well – we’re always looking for more video content so if you have anything suitable that you’re happy to share, please send it on to us.
