Press Release Digest 2nd July 2007

TRAINS, AUTOMOBILES & FERRIES!
CARBON-FRIENDLY WALKING TOURS

Follow in the footsteps of Prince Charles, who recently announced his household was carbon neutral, and do your bit for the environment! Swap the plane for trains, automobiles and ferries and enjoy some Dordogne Encounters and Catalonian Delights with Walks Worldwide this summer!

Dordogne Encounters… 8 and 14-day self-guided walking tour – departing Les Eyzies daily until 31st October.

Jump in the car and head for France and Les Eyzies, the ‘Capital of Pre-History’. Spend a week or two, walking through the beautiful Dordogne scenery, with lots of opportunities to sample the gastronomic delights of the region en route. And with all that car boot space, it would be a shame not to stock up on a few good bottles of wine on the way home, re-cycling the glass afterwards of course!

Land only costs from £495 p/p (8-day) and £850 p/p (14-day) including hotel and guesthouse accommodation, most meals, baggage transfers and route notes and maps.

Catalonian Delights… 8-day self-guided walking tour – departing Barcelona daily throughout September.

Let the train take the strain and the boots do the walking! For walkers, the Catalan Pyrenees and their foothills offer some of Spain’s finest terrain, with a well-developed network of paths passing sturdy old farmhouses, Romanesque churches and bridges, ancient terraces and mediaeval castles.

Land only costs from £670 p/p including hotel and rural inn accommodation, most meals, baggage transfers, and route notes and maps.
Travel by train couldn't be simpler. Take the Eurostar from London to Paris, then board an overnight 'trainhotel' from Paris to Barcelona – for more info see www.seat61.com
