Involved Holidays - Market Harborough

Marcia Dale

Excellent holiday.The guide was very knowledgeable about Menorca and its birds, flora and fauna and was helpful with advice about what to do on non walking days as well as being a very pleasant man. Staff at the hotel were helpful and pleasant too. Food was varied and plentiful though classic hotel buffet standard. Rooms could have done with a bit of an update but were clean and comfortable. Although there wasn't a kettle in the room one was quickly provided on request . Really enjoyed this type of holiday and hope to go on another Involved Holiday in the future.

I just thought I'd let you know what a wonderful holiday we had in Tuscany. It was probably the best Involved holiday we have had. Every aspect of the holuday was first class. Marina di Pietrasante is a super base, with its lovely beach, park and shops. The old town was absolutely stunning and definitely worth a visit. With the bus stop outside the hotel, it was easy to connect to other bus and rail services.

The Hotel Joseph was so clean, with a good pool, although the sea was warmer! The food was quintessentially Italian and we like to choose our meals rather than have a buffet of frozen vegetables and mismatched dishes. The staff were friendly, too.

Julio was a superb guide, the best we have had. His knowledge,  positively and ability to read the group, along with his approachability were much appreciated. The walks were lovely and even though we didn't get to the mountains because of the weather, the replacement walk was very interesting and suitable for all the group.

Even with our extra week, we never ran out of things to do. We visited Pisa, had a boat trip along the Cinque Terre, visuted Torre del Lago Villa Puccini and revisited Luca, which was our favourite place.

Thank you for such a wonderful holiday.

We set off to Jersey not knowing much about the place. We stayed at a lovely hotel, Cristina. Our room overlooking the swimming pool. I bravely ventured in. Only 4 lengths later with icicles in my hair gave it up. The hotel is more or less mid way between St. Aubin and St. Helier. About half a mile from the hotel is a church St. Matthews it is known as the "Glass Church" , it has been decorated in a beautiful Art Deco design by Rene Lalique. The walks were very interesting with WW2 German defence bunkers and vast structures. Other walks included neolithic stone ritual sites and harbours, Castles, empty beaches that stretch out for miles.On our free day we took the opportunity to visit the War Tunnels. A really good day out.
We met a friendly group of people from all over the British Isles. A special mention goes to Trudie, our guide . She was well organised and knowledgeable and made our walks interesting. We would happily return and recommend it to anyone.

Walking in Tuscany with Involved holidays recently was an excellent experience. The Hotel Joseph was ideally situated on the outskirts of the resort, which was nice and quiet this time of year.
All the walks were great with wonderful views and were well planned by Giulio our very knowledgeable tour manager and guide.
Would definitely recommend.

Walking in Cyprus with Involved Holidays provided more than I expected as we were immersed in the history, the flora, the agriculture and the beauty of this fabulous island. The Athena Beach Hotel was a wonderful location, with excellent food, all the amenities and attentive staff. We stayed an extra three nights, arranged by Involved thus giving more time to explore independently.
A really memorable holiday.

This was our third walking holiday with Involved Holidays, this time in September 2024 to Menorca. We chose Involved Holidays as they fly from Leeds/ Bradford airport unlike a lot of other walking companies and holidays have a mixture of walking days and free days to relax.
And what a lovely holiday and what an underrated beautiful island! We did 4 stages approximately of the Cami de Cavalls, the walking trail circling the island. All beautiful walks and our guide Javier was superb, most friendly and so knowledgeable of the bird life, fauna, flora and geology of the island. We loved the rugged coastline, the Menorca gates and the lighthouses. The hotel was fine, a group of 16 walkers and we all got on very well, a great holiday with great weather as well

Very much enjoyed my recent walking holiday to Cala Ratjada in Mallorca. The hotel was comfortable and the food and service was excellent! Loved all the three walks with Julio and assistant Patricia or Danny. Julio kept us at a nice pace and every now and then gave us information about local views, places of interest, trees etc. I would definitely recommend Involved Holidays.

We had a wonderful week on Portugal on a walking holiday with Involved Travel. Everything about it worked perfectly.
The hotel was right on the beach at one end of the lovely resort of Armaçâu De Péra. It was clean comfortable and the food was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful.
The walks were beautiful and not too long for our older legs! Our local representative and the walk leader were attentive and alert to the individual capacitors of different members of our group without being intrusive.
This is the second time we have been on this holiday to this resort and we cannot recommend it highly enough.
