Our recent 10 day self guided cycling…
Our recent 10 day self guided cycling trip from Passau to Vienna was excellent. It was well organised with good Headwater staff contact and a well planned itinerary with good hotels. Local tour operator, bikes and app very good and local staff supportive when I left my day rucksack at a previous hotel.I would recommend this holiday.

I had a wonderful one week cycling holiday in Mallorca. The holiday was self-guided and I found the Headwater app reliable, so that doing it alone was absolutely fine. The routes were through stunning countryside, and I'd recommend it very highly.

We walked and visited some great places…
We walked and visited some great places along the Loire valley. Luggage transfers and taxi transfers were good. The hotels by and large were varied but always clean and comfortable, pleasant and helpful staff and all had a swimming pool.
Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed at the hotel in Chitenay during our holiday and we had ‘cold plate’ two nights on the run, ( there was no where else to eat, and both meals were included in the price). This was disappointing and not very appetising having walked 19km. There were other hotels in the that would have been a better place to stay.
This was our second walking holiday with Headwater and there were a couple of recurring themes.
1. The navigation app is great when it works! However, we experienced problems in a remote forest and got lost on this occasion.
2. Headwater described this holiday as a level 1 leisurely walking holiday, it wasn’t. Their local agents described it as moderate walking route which is far more accurate.
We experienced Both points 1 and 2 on a previous walking holiday with Headwater along the Algarve.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback, and for choosing to travel with us again.
We’re really pleased to hear that you enjoyed exploring the Loire Valley and that the luggage transfers, taxi arrangements and overall hotel standards helped your holiday run smoothly. It’s wonderful to know you were able to experience such great locations along the way.
That said, we’re very sorry to hear about the experience at the hotel in Chitenay. After a long day’s walking, we completely appreciate how important a proper evening meal is, and we will be following this up with our local partners to ensure this is addressed for future travellers.
We’re also grateful for your honest feedback regarding the navigation app and the walking grade. While the app is designed to provide clear and reliable guidance, your comments will be shared with the team as part of ongoing improvements. Likewise, feedback on grading is incredibly valuable and helps us ensure expectations are set as clearly and accurately as possible.
Thank you again for your continued trust in Headwater and for highlighting where we can improve. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with an even smoother experience on your next trip.

Highly recommend Headwater
I've used Exodus several times in the past, however this was my first 'self guided' holiday through their sister company, Headwater.
Headwater were excellent from start to finish. Great communication and always helpful when I called them with questions.
The Headwater App was excellent as well. Easy to use and navigate and no need for an internet connection as long as you've downloaded the app before you set off on holiday.
We will definitely be using Headwater again and are already thinking about our next 'self guided' trip.
Would highly recommend.

Wonderful cycle holiday in Mallorca
Wonderful cycle holiday in Mallorca. Headwater quickly organised our trip as we were booking last minute. Friendly service. The cycles were good quality and well serviced. All transfers and luggage moved happened as expected and on time. We stayed in 4 excellent hotels - good service and good food in all of them.

Wonderful Sicily cycling holiday
Just returned from the Headwater secrets of Sicily cycling trip with four in our group. So glad we went in April as we had fantastic weather and the spring flowers and bird life everywhere along the routes made for such a beautiful and scenic trip. The electric bikes were very good and made the trip manageable for our abilities. Very impressed with the character of the majority of the hotels particularly the Hotel Carmine in Marsala. The roof terrace with small pool and bar on the top of the hotel Room of Andrea also a nice feature.
It’s worth booking a tour of the Pelligrino winery in Marsala as it is still family run and it is a good tasting tour. They offer an 11am English speaking one daily. We found local restaurants near to the hotels in the evenings where we had excellent Italian food and although lunch stops were a bit tricky to find we ate at a few places where the locals had lunch and speaking a bit of Italian here was very useful. The historical sites of Segesta and day out at Erice were fascinating and impressive. Very enjoyable week and made us want to see more of Sicily.

A great walking trip to Malta and Gozo
Headwater offer a great choice of trips for walkers and cyclists. We love the Headwater navigation app enabling us to walk independently with confidence in places that are new to us. They have a helpful, attentive booking team and knowledgeable, supportive local agents. Complex travel and transfer arrangements worked like a dream enabling us to relax and enjoy our walking holiday. Highly recommended.

App improves walking experience hugely
Excellent walking route in a more remote part of Andalucia. Varied and enjoyable accommodation along the way. The app is much better than only written instructions and improves walking experience hugely. Good to have a local point of contact and single supplement was reasonable.
