CountryWalkers.com Announces New Self-Guided Walking Tours in Spain
Country Walkers’ Self-Guided Walking Tours in Spain offer immersion in local culture, natural beauty and attractions at a flexible pace.
Littleton, CO, February 20, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Discover the charms of Spain at your own pace on new Self-Guided Walking Tours fromCountryWalkers.com. Newly launched, precisely planned and brimming with culture and local hospitality, the new self-guided walking tour series is perfect for independent-minded travelers who prefer to set their own tempo without missing a beat.
Country Walkers’ Self-Guided Walking Tours in Spain offer immersion in local culture, natural beauty and attractions at a flexible pace. Make your way along clearly marked routes, proceeding hotel-to-hotel and table-to-table with resident representatives to assure both you and your luggage get where you’re going.
“The past year has revealed increased interest from our guests in travel with a personal point-of-view. While exploring the world oneself can be hit-or-miss, our new Self-Guided Tours in Spain meet independent-minded travelers halfway, with remarkable routes running off-the-beaten-track highlighted by pleasurable diversions, carefully vetted accommodations and attentive service,” said Timo Shaw, President of Country Walkers.
Travelers can depart nearly any day in prime walking season with flexible departure dates, and Country Walkers’ travel specialists are available to assist in choosing just-the-right destination to meet guests’ interests and abilities. Guests receive background details on their destination – including easy-to-follow route maps – before departure. On arrival, local representatives provide transfer to the route while overseeing transportation of luggage and standing on-call for 24-hour emergency service. Linger at local hotspots for as long as you like: Optional abbreviated routes enable a quick commutation for those too tuckered or absorbed in local delights for the whole route.
The New Self-Guided Walking Tours in Spain for 2010:
Self-Guided Tour - Spain: Catalonia
7days/6nights.
Deps April, May, June, July, Aug, Sept, Oct
Breakfast and 4 dinners included
Framed by the Pyrenées to the north, bathed by the Mediterranean to the east and anchored by the city of Barcelona to the south, Catalonia provides superb walking and sites. Sandy paths, deep shady forest trails, birds (eagles and orioles) and wildflowers abound. Accommodations from lovely, family-run hotels on the coast to a magnificently restored 14th-century gothic castle in the hills are part of the fun.

Self-Guided Tour - Spain: Mallorca 8 days/7nights
Deps. March, April, Sept, Oct

Walks here showcase the western coast of Mallorca where the Tramuntana mountain range plunges into the Mediterranean. This region is a quiet haven of oak-clad hills, abandoned monasteries, honey-colored villages, hidden coves, and citrus groves. The two on-tour hotels are a restored monastery complete with turreted towers, cloistered courtyards, and beautiful Mediterranean gardens; and a former 19th-century Bishop’s residence.
