Our Top 10 New Holidays for 2016

Here at Macs Adventure we are always adding to our wide-ranging choice of amazing walking and cycling holidays. Here is our pick of 10 of the best new trips for 2016. Which one will you go for?

Cycling in Spain

1) Cycling in Spain

Discover the medieval towns of Spain's 'golden era' or experience the stunning countryside that inspired Dali on our new range of cycling tours. End your day of riding with a glass of chilled Catalan cava or a well-earned cerveza.

(For the super adventurous - take on the pros and give Road Cycling Catalonia: Coast, Cols & Pyrenees a try!)

2) Dorodgne Walking Holidays

The minute that we discovered the many fabulous options for walkers in picturesque Dordogne in south-west France we set about creating a range of trips.

We've completely re-worked our walking holidays for 2016 - now you can choose from short breaks, luxury stays and highlight tours all with a delightfully relaxing theme.

3) Downton Abbey to Bath

If you have enjoyed the majestic setting of TV’s hit series Downtown Abbey, you will not be able to resist this walking holiday. The easy-going pace allows you to thoroughly enjoy a week’s tour of England’s North Wessex Downs. You also visit the grounds of Highclere Castle, the “real” Downtown Abbey, and the Georgian city of Bath.

The North Coast 500

4) The North Coast 500

Scotland’s North Coast 500 is a new trip in our popular collection of Drive & Hike holidays. Drive the wonderfully beautiful 500-mile North Coast route, billed as the answer to America’s Route 66, and stop off for self-guided walks, culinary treats and historical attractions. Read more in our NC500 highlights blog.

Highlands and Isle of Skye Rail and Hike

5) The Highlands and Isle of Skye: Rail & Hike

Another popular format for Scottish holidays is our Rail & Hike tours. Sit back and enjoy some of the country’s best railway journeys, including the famous West Highland Line. You’ll stay in luxury lodges and castles and have your choice of great walking routes to suit your energy and aspirations.

Castles of the Romantic Rhine

6) Castles of the Romantic Rhine

Walk between historic castles, sip delicious German wines and explore a network of scenic paths through vineyards high above the River Rhine. This fabulous valley is a feast for all the senses – and a great walking holiday treat.

Scotland's Castle Trail

7) Scotland's Castle Trail

A palace, a cathedral, two distilleries and several great castles are just some of the attractions on this new cycling tour of Scotland. We reckon that travelling by bicycle is the perfect way to go in this scenic small country.

Walking in Peru

8) Walking in Peru

Will you choose to walk the iconic Inca Trail or the less-visited Salkantay Trail? Or perhaps you would prefer to create a walking tour of this fascinating South American country, picking and choosing your top attractions? We’ll help you decide if you give us a call.

Walking in Provence

9) Walking in Provence

Wander through Provençal hilltop villages and embrace the little pleasures of French life on one of our new Provence walking holidays. We've added four new tours to this timeless destination, so there are plenty of ways to enjoy the incredible landscapes (think sun-drenched vineyards, olive groves and fields of lavender). End your days right by sampling the delicious local food and wine. Santé!

Walking in Sweden

10) Walking in Sweden

Sweden is renowned for its great walking trails set amid spectacular scenery and The Kungsleden (King’s Trail) remains a popular choice. Now we’ve added two new walking tours, the Osterlen Way, which hugs the coast of the Baltic Sea, and the High Coast Trail, which passes through forests and mountains, to offer even more options for a Scandinavian sojourn.
