1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
Beautiful scenery from cliff paths to woodlands to hard sand beaches and country lanes.
2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Be prepared for a lot of up and down walking. Take time to visit castles and museums along the way.
3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Our vacation supported the local tourism economy - hotels, restaurants, beach cafes, and taxis and the people who work there. Unfortunately, we consumed
more plastic on this vacation than we do at home having to buy bottled water along the way. We filled our water bottles at the hotel in the morning but ran out by lunch time. The public toilets (which were plentiful and clean) did not have sinks with taps.
4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
Wonderful, a great escape, restorative, and memorable.
