WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
Most definitely one of my most memorable trips I’ve ever had. The walks in such spectacular mountains was simply incredible, and the coastal amble made it the perfect combination. Languid swims in the many wonderful beaches as we made our way west, with delicous picnics, cold beer and lazy post lunch siestas, before continuing, or not: I loved the option to just stay and catch up with the group at our night’s accommodation, organised by Matthew’s taxi & bus contacts.

We joined Matt’s slackpacking tour for the second time, bringing along some friends, and making new ones on the walk. We had a wonderful, with relaxed walking, flexible schedule, breathtaking mountains, exquisite coastline and delicious Asturian food. We loved not having to carry a heavy pack everyday, and being able to opt out for a rest or some sketching when we felt like it. We’ll definitely be back again!
LIZETTE & PETE SUTHERLAND, RSA
Thank you Matthew for an unforgettable experience. The highlite was the first day’s walk along the gorge trail. The sheer drop down to the beautiful river below, and the passeges cut through the mountains were something that memories remain etched in ones mind.
