About Us

Thank you for choosing  FREEDOM WALKING HOLIDAYS.

30 Years Of Experience in Tourism and Hospitality Industry...

When thinking about booking a walking holiday, FREEDOM offers a wide choice of stunning and varied walks from the simply breathtaking Coast to Coast walk, to the historical Ridgeway Path and Hadrian’s Wall Path.

We arrange all your holiday requirements and provide you with accommodation, guides, anitinerary, baggage transfer, and a full English breakfast, leaving you free to enjoy the walking in the knowledge that at the end of the day your bed, bath or shower and an evening meal are waiting for you.

Our unescorted tours for independent walkers cover some of Britain’s finest long distance footpaths. However, if there is a walk not listed that you would like to try, please do not hesitate to ask as it may be one of which we are planning for future inclusion in our brochure.

We also take the weight out of your rucksack by transporting your main luggage, leaving you free to carry only a light daysack.
